At SOFICO, we're building the future of mobility through Miles, our market-leading platform for leasing, fleet, and mobility operations worldwide. As an international team, we combine innovation, collaboration, and ownership to deliver real impact for our customers, in a culture of continuous learning, mutual support, and shared success.
SOFICO is expanding its Data & AI organisation to build the SOFICO AI Cloud and the Miles Enterprise Agentic Platform: an AI experience layer backed by a deterministic capability layer that keeps every business action controlled, predictable, and testable.
From our Ghent office, you'll be the founding Cloud Ops engineer embedded directly in the Data & AI product team, owning the design, build, and operation of the AI Cloud platform: standardized, single-tenant environments that SOFICO runs in Azure, powering the Agentic Platform.
What You'll do
This is a hands-on role: you design it and you build it. Automated deployment is key from day one.
- Design, build, and operate the AI Cloud platform: standardized, single-tenant customer environments run by SOFICO in Azure.
- Build and maintain the automated "instance factory" for rapid, secure provisioning, upgrades, and lifecycle management of customer instances.
- Own Infrastructure-as-Code, CI/CD, and GitOps practices end to end, from design through daily operation.
- Drive platform standardization: handle customer-specific requirements through configuration, not custom infrastructure.
- Design secure, reliable connectivity between AI Cloud and the rest of Miles Enterprise, parts of which run on-premise or at customer sites.
- Own platform reliability, security, and observability: monitoring, alerting, incident response, and continuous improvement.
- Apply the technical standards and foundations for Cloud Ops for Miles Enterprise to the Data & AI team's artifacts.
What You Bring
- Senior-level, hands-on experience in Platform Engineering, Cloud Ops, DevOps, or SRE — comfortable owning a platform end to end, with help from our Cloud Ops specialists.
- Proven track record operating and scaling production SaaS or cloud-native platforms.
