We want to become the most human-centred telecom provider in the Netherlands. That might sound odd from an IT or network role, but that's exactly where it starts. Because without stable systems, a reliable network and smart technology there's no conversation, no connection, no trust. You make sure everything runs, even when nobody notices. And that's precisely the point. Even if the customer doesn't see you, your impact is felt in every conversation, every connection and every moment it just works. Because when the technology is solid, people can work, customers can be helped, and trust is built.

At Odido we're there for each other. We see each other's talents. We listen and always look at what's possible, technically, personally and in the way we work together. Because you're at your best when you can grow, Odido gives you all the space you need for that. Together we look at where your ambition and talent lie and make sure you get the opportunities to grow in your own way, whether that's deeper technical specialisation, a broader architect role, or a step towards tech leadership.

At Odido you build critical infrastructure at a national scale, with a competitive salary and a bonus that matches your role. You work in compact teams with short lines, hybrid and with flexible hours. Your growth is central: through a personal development budget of up to €1,000 per year, more than 200 digital courses and room for technical specialisation or a step towards tech leadership.

Some things you cannot learn at university, but you possess them by nature.
Your core personality is empathic, decisive, curious, people-focused, authentic, and honest. You know the difference between managing and coaching, and when to apply which. You embrace challenges and are eager to grow. These are traits we’re looking for not only in managerial roles but in every Odido colleague, at every level.

Must-Haves

• Strong documentation discipline (HLD/LLD, diagrams, templates) and keeping it current
• Solid understanding of internet/networking fundamentals (e.g., DNS, HTTP/S, TCP/IP, UDP, routing, VLANs)
• Mature collaboration skills: able to align engineers, developers, operations and commercial stakeholders

Nice-to-Haves

• Hands-on experience with CA/DRM, CDN, transcoding, middleware, OTT protocols, STBs and client devices
• Experience in a multi-vendor environment where interoperability is a daily reality

Please note:
You must already live in the Netherlands, preferably within ~30 km of The Hague, and you’ll work at least 3 days per week from our Den Haag office.

Even though we have many different colleagues, we look for a few typical Odido traits in every new team member. You need to be able to handle a changing organisation. The world of communications changes every day, and we need to grow along with it. Being naturally curious and interested in the technology we work with and the industry we're in helps enormously.
