About us   Rentman is a B2B SaaS scale-up building a smart, powerful operations management platform to support event and media production teams.

Mission of this role   As a Dev Ops Engineer you'll take ownership of our cloud infrastructure, CI/CD systems, system reliability, observability and scalability. You bring strong Dev Ops fundamentals paired with solid software development skills, so you can build clean, maintainable automation and internal tooling. You're comfortable operating with autonomy, making architectural decisions and raising the quality and resilience of our delivery and operational workflows.
What you'll do     Own infrastructure system health, security posture and cost for Rentman and Crewzone.

Lead the transition to fully code-defined infrastructure, moving our AWS estate from Click Ops to end-to-end Infrastructure-as-Code.

Set up and maintain staging environments the P&D team can rely on for daily testing.

Build and own our observability stack: monitoring, logging, tracing, dashboards, alerts and uptime KPIs.

Produce insight into hosting cost and performance, and turn that insight into concrete recommendations.

Unify our Fargate and Kubernetes services onto one standard.

Own cloud security and IAM, including account structure, access management, secrets and the controls that support our compliance work.

Manage stakeholders across P&D and stay ahead of infrastructure required to land future products on.

What we are looking for     Experience being responsible for the availability and infrastructure of a business critical product or service.

You've personally led an Infrastructure-as-Code migration of a non-trivial production AWS estate, using Terraform, Pulumi or CDK. Contributing to one isn't enough, we need someone who has led it.

You've designed and operated CI/CD pipelines at product scale, using Git Hub Actions or a comparable tool. Again, designing and operating, not just maintaining.

You're comfortable setting your own priorities against outcomes rather than working off a ticket list.

You can write code, not just think about infrastructure. Some of our internal tooling depends on this.

Nice to haves     

Experience with security testing.

Experience setting up test automation at scale.

What you’ll get     Competitive salary based on experience, plus 8% holiday allowance

A results-based bonus based on company performance (up to a full 13th month's salary)

25 vacation days to recharge

Earn an extra day of PTO for each year at Rentman, from your second anniversary up to five years.

A 4-week paid sabbatical after 5 years to go on an adventure

Flexible WFH policy & work from anywhere for 4 weeks a year

Pension plan through Bright Pensioen

An annual training budget to grow your skills

Access to Open Up for mental well-being and personal growth

Your choice of a shiny new Windows, Linux, or Mac

Stay active with the team: join the Rentman football team, squash and padel, plus a discounted Urban Sports membership

An OV Business card if you live more than 10km from the office

An ambitious, inclusive, and diverse international team

A flexible, energizing workplace with free lunches, office perks (PS5, ping pong, D&D), legendary karaoke nights, and regular team activities

An amazing office in the heart of Utrecht, in the historic Drift 17
