Project details

Function scale and step: Business Operations Specialist D - 12

Motivation for Hiring

The Operations of the Police and its chain partners require a faster and more autonomous way of working. A way that aligns with the daily dynamics of the outside world. And also offers room for innovations with direct value for Operations. Data-driven working is central to this. Where the distinction between Business Operations and Operations blurs.

Within the Innovative Data Driven IV (IDDI) Program, this is being realized by offering both a technical platform and a 'way of working'.

The Tooling and DevOps Specialist will primarily seek solutions on a technical level together with Operations and chain partners, giving expression to the 'way of working'.

Assignment / Job Description

You will:

Support development teams by providing and maintaining tools in a cloud-native environment

Design and implement new technical solutions.

Improve the software lifecycle

Actively respond to the daily wishes and questions of Development teams

Migrate various tools to a new Kubernetes platform.

Activities / tasks, responsibilities & objectives

Within the police, the developers in operations connected to IDDI are largely dependent on the development tooling made available by the IDDI Tooling team. As Team Lead, you are responsible for the setup of this team and establishing a vision for the tooling used within IDDI. You will use your experience from other clients for this.
