Job Description


Design, evolve, and own our AWS infrastructure

At ReduCate, we’re building a SaaS platform that transforms how professionals learn across Europe. Doctors, lawyers, and teachers already use our products to stay certified — and with each new acquisition, our platform grows in reach, complexity, and impact.

We’ve just migrated our first tenant onto our new multi-tenant platform — a huge milestone. Now, we’re ready for the next step: consolidating multiple systems, standardizing infrastructure, and scaling across brands.


As our Senior DevOps Engineer, you’ll take full ownership of this landscape. You’ll work in a greenfield environment with high technical standards, modern tooling, and the freedom to design things the right way. You won’t just maintain infrastructure — you’ll evolve it, ensuring security, reliability, and scalability for the long term.


About ReduCate

ReduCate is a fast-growing group of e-learning companies with one mission: to become the European market leader in professional education.

We serve regulated industries — law, medicine, transport, and education — where continuous learning isn’t optional.

We’re uniting several successful learning platforms into one modern, multi-tenant SaaS ecosystem. Every acquisition brings new technologies and challenges, giving you the chance to design infrastructure that adapts and scales as we grow.


What you’ll do

  • Own and improve our AWS-based infrastructure managed via Terraform
  • Drive evolution of our multi-tenant SaaS setup, ensuring scalability and security
  • Maintain and extend CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions
  • Ensure reliable Docker usage across local dev, testing, and deployments
  • Integrate and manage identity solutions (FusionAuth, Google)
  • Implement and enhance monitoring and observability (Sentry, CloudWatch)
  • Champion security, privacy, and compliance best practices company-wide
  • Collaborate closely with developers, QA, product, and external partners

This is a hands-on role with broad scope — you’ll define standards, automate processes, and continuously improve how infrastructure supports engineering and product delivery.


What you bring

  • 5–8 years of DevOps or Site Reliability Engineering experience
  • Deep expertise in AWS (VPC, ECS/Lambda, Aurora, S3, CloudFront, Route53, etc.)
  • Strong Terraform (IaC) knowledge and a documentation-first mindset
  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins
  • Solid grasp of security, compliance, and monitoring in cloud environments
  • Familiarity with multi-tenant SaaS architectures or large-scale migrations
  • AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer) are a strong plus
  • Pragmatic, proactive communicator who balances speed with stability


Why you’ll love this role

  • A technically complex SaaS environment with real challenges — multi-tenant, multilingual, multi-brand
  • The chance to own and evolve infrastructure built for scale and longevity
  • A collaborative engineering culture where autonomy and quality come first
  • Direct impact on how professional education is delivered across Europe

You’ll join a compact, high-performing team that values smart decisions, curiosity, and long-term thinking over bureaucracy.


What you’ll get

  • Excellent salary
  • Pension scheme
  • 26 vacation days
  • Free daily lunch at the office
  • Hybrid setup (2 days in-office, 3 remote)
  • Fun team events such as BBQs and Christmas dinners

📍 Must live in the Netherlands

🚫 Visa sponsorship (IND) is not possible


Why it matters

Your work ensures that ReduCate’s growth remains secure, efficient, and future-proof. You’ll provide the foundation that lets our developers ship faster, our platform scale safely, and our users learn without interruption.
