  • Has a strong operational mindset with experience managing availability, performance, and security across hybrid environments

Responsibilities

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Head of Technology, you will lead one or more teams focused on cloud infrastructure, platform services, DevOps enablement, cybersecurity, and integration tooling. Your mission is to provide modern and reliable platform solutions that serve internal teams and external-facing applications across the Vitrolife Group.
This is both a strategic and operational role—you will work cross-functionally with product owners, analytics leads, IT, and development teams to ensure our infrastructure is resilient, performant, and easy to consume. While Azure is our main cloud, the landscape also includes AWS services and on-premise solutions such as deep learning clusters, gene sequencing environments, and distributed edge nodes.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Lead the evolution and performance of our internal and external platforms, with full ownership of availability, scalability, and security
  • Manage enabling services in areas such as cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, DevOps engineering, and integrations
  • Provide infrastructure as a service to internal development, data, and product teams
  • Define platform architecture strategies that support hybrid environments (Azure, AWS, on-premise)
  • Drive automation, observability, and best practices across cloud and infrastructure services
  • Ensure compliance with internal and external security and data protection standards
  • Build and develop a skilled team of platform and cloud engineers, promoting a collaborative and enabling culture
