Do you enjoy taking ownership of complex technical environments? Do you like combining infrastructure, security and automation to keep mission-critical SaaS platforms? Then join the team behind Benefits-Plaza, Keylane’s all-in-one Employee Benefits platform that connects employers, insurers and payroll providers across the Netherlands.

• Monitor the Benefits-Plaza platform and proactively resolve operational issues, including resource bottlenecks, application outages and middleware failures (e.g. disk space, CPU usage and Tomcat availability).
• Contribute to daily operations: handling service requests and standard changes, following agreed ITIL processes.
• Managing service requests and standard changes in line with ITIL processes.
• Managing web service integrations, including networking, whitelisting, security configuration and end-to-end technical validation.
• Planning and executing maintenance activities, including patching and upgrading technologies such as RHEL, DB2, Tomcat and related components.
• Managing the lifecycle of client and server certificates, coordinating renewals and secure deployments.
• Lead the technical execution of external audits, penetration tests and disaster recovery exercises by preparing technical evidence, coordinating activities and driving remediation where needed.
• Driving automation and standardization by improving runbooks, scripts and operational tooling.
• Optimizing monitoring, capacity management and operational dashboards to improve platform reliability.
