Internship (thesis or work placement): Operational ICT …, Nieuwegein

Internship (thesis or work placement): Operational ICT Engineer (Infrastructure, Operations&Transition) A re you an HBO ICT student who wants to truly help build and improve a professional and complex ICT infrastructure? Are you looking for a graduation or work placement internship for a period of 4 to 6 months? Then this internship at KWR is for you!

About the internship Do you want to make an impact in a complex, professional ICT environment? At KWR, you will have the opportunity to contribute to the next phase of our infrastructure. The foundation is solid, but over the past few years the environment has become more complex. That is why we are now moving towards greater standardization, clear role definitions, and structured collaboration with our IT partner Proact.

During this internship, you will play an active role in this transition. You will help make the existing infrastructure clear and manageable, contribute to standardizing configurations and processes, and support the clear documentation of tasks and responsibilities. You will also help think about how operations, management, and governance can be organized in a future-proof way.

The result? A professionally structured ICT environment that is transferable and sustainable— with your work being directly visible and of lasting value.

What will you do? During your internship, you will actively contribute to the professionalization of our operational ICT environment. Your focus will be on making the infrastructure transparent, transferable, and manageable, reducing complexity through standardization, and structurally transferring operational tasks to our supplier Proact. This ensures that procedures, patching, and management processes are demonstrably in control, allowing the internal ICT coordinator to focus on security and cloud development.

Specifically, you will work on:

Analyzing the infrastructure (servers, storage environments, networks, firewalls, integrations, backup and restore solutions, and management and patch processes);

Documenting the current situation: what runs where, by whom, and why;

Identifying unnecessary complexity and proposing standard configurations, clear management agreements, and well-defined exceptions;

Documenting and improving patch, update, incident, and change processes, as well as backup&restore procedures;

Supporting software inventory and license management in collaboration with workplace management, with a focus on overall coherence.

How can the existing ICT infrastructure be operationally standardized and documented in such a way that continuity, security, and clarity of responsibilities are ensured?
