Job description

Your mission

What will you do as a DevOps Engineer?

Macaw’s DevOps Engineers are a close-knit group of professionals who work together in a practical, down-to‑earth environment to design, build, and continuously improve Microsoft Azure cloud platforms. We support national and international customers in strengthening the stability, availability, security, and scalability of their Azure environments.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will help set up, monitor, manage, and support Microsoft Azure-based IaaS and PaaS environments. You will do this as part of a team of around 30 engineers, consultants, and architects, combining hands‑on technical delivery with a customer‑focused mindset.

You will become a trusted technical lead for one or more customers and act as a key sparring partner for the Service Delivery Manager. In this role, you are not only strong in delivery and operations, but you are also comfortable stepping into a consultancy role when needed, leading assessments, advising clients, and helping translate technical challenges into practical solutions. At Macaw, you will also have plenty of room to grow further, for example into Azure Architecture, Azure Networking, Cloud Security, or Azure DevOps, with future opportunities to develop into an Azure Architect or Technical Consultant.

Your profile

At Macaw, you will have every opportunity to keep developing yourself. To make an immediate impact in our current projects, we are looking for an experienced DevOps Engineer with the following background, skills, and mindset:

• At least 4 years of relevant experience as a DevOps Engineer, preferably in customer‑facing or managed services environments;
• Experience working with ITIL‑based processes and service‑oriented delivery;
• Strong knowledge of Azure DevOps, PowerShell, Bicep and/or Terraform, CI/CD, containers, networking, security, IAM, and Microsoft cloud governance frameworks such as CAF and WAF; familiarity with AI‑related capabilities is a plus;
• You hold the AZ‑400 and AZ‑305 certifications;
• You are confident working directly with customers, enjoy advising them when needed, and are not afraid to take on consultancy work alongside hands‑on engineering;
• You have a strong command of the Dutch language, both spoken and written.

Why us?

Macaw is a place where people can truly be themselves and continue to grow. We are an international organization with around 400 employees, and while we continue to expand, we care deeply about preserving our personal, informal, and collaborative culture.

What do we offer?

• An informal, social, and knowledgeable team that enjoys working together and sharing expertise;
• Flexibility in how you organize your work, we focus on ownership, results, and trust rather than control;
• The freedom to improve and optimize processes, with plenty of room for your ideas and initiative;
• A competitive salary, aligned with your knowledge, experience, and the impact you bring;
• Plenty of room for professional development, growth goals, and training, because Macaw actively invests in its people;
• Dedicated study time so you can follow training courses, prepare for certifications, or attend webinars and events;
• Flexible working hours (32–40 hours per week) and the ability to work in a hybrid setup;
• A mobility budget that you can use in the way that suits you best;
• A home office allowance to help you create a comfortable and productive workspace;
• 29 vacation days per year and 8.5% holiday allowance, with the option to purchase up to 10 additional vacation days;
• An excellent pension scheme;
• And if you want to unwind at the office, you can always challenge your colleagues to a game of pool or on the Xbox.

We look forward to receiving your application and welcoming a new talented colleague to our team.

At Macaw, everyone is welcome.

We believe in equal opportunity for every applicant and a hiring process that’s inclusive, respectful, and free from bias. Your talent, mindset, and skillset matter most – regardless of background, identity, or beliefs. If you need any support during the application process, just reach out to us at [e-mail].
