To ensure success, you:
- Work with the team and project managers to assign project tasks
- Manage team of field engineers and network engineers, across all product lines
- Engage with team leads from other departments to align on expectations and mutual dependencies (and planning)
- Oversee and manage the resource planning for your team – you align closely with the project managers on this
- Report about technical hurdles and help mitigate any (upcoming) issues
- Work with the team to help expedite implementation timelines and set up best practices.
- Create and maintain implementation templates and innovate on way of working
Qualifications
Who are you? Honestly, we don't even need to spell out this role for you. You live and breathe it. To thrive in this team, it’s important to be proactive and a hands-on leader. You are driven to create meaningful impacts and embrace opportunities for innovation. You have a vision and the ability to guide a team towards success.

- Have at least 3 years of hands-on experience in a similar role.
- Ideally, you have at least 3 years of hands-on experience and proven knowledge of Linux configurations, troubleshooting methodologies as well as in creating technical documentation and testing set-ups so that you are able to take on operating system installations and hardware network configurations to documentation, application deployment, and rigorous testing procedures.
- Have exceptional English communication and people skills, adept at conveying complex technical information to both tech and non-tech stakeholders.
- Are willing to travel abroad and visit offshore locations.
This is what you get from us- A chance to be part of an amazing international and fast growing team.
