Platform engineer
Location: Eindhoven (Strijp-T) | Hours: 40 hours per week | Employment type: Direct employment
We're looking for a Platform Engineer to join the Avular Team!
At Avular, we are looking for a hands-on and pragmatic Platform Engineer to strengthen our software organization. Here you will own the "software factory" behind our robots: the CI/CD pipelines, self-hosted build runners, package registries and supply-chain tooling that our ~30 software engineers rely on every day. In this role, you will keep our builds green, our releases reproducible, and our dependencies secure. You'll be the person who makes sure our engineers can ship robotics software quickly, reliably, and safely.
YOUR MISSION
Everything between a developer's commit and a shipped, traceable artefact is yours: builds green, releases reproducible, dependencies secure. Good documentation and sensible automation are part of the job, and both sit in your Definition of Done.
- A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or a comparable field, or equivalent experience
- 5+ years in a platform, build & release, DevOps or developer-productivity role
- A strong foundation in Linux administration (Ubuntu); this is where our infrastructure lives
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD systems and build pipelines (GitHub Actions is a plus)
- Scripting and automation skills (Bash, YAML, Python or PowerShell)
- Familiarity with package registries and artefact management
- An eye for software supply-chain security: SBOMs, CVE monitoring, dependency scanning
- An ownership mindset: you chase problems down rather than waiting for a ticket
- Good spoken and written English (our team is partly international); Dutch is a plus
