What you'll do
Run, modernise and continuously improve TomTom’s core operations processes, as part of a team that puts AI at the heart of how we work.
Contribute across event, incident, problem and change management. Run day-to-day process performance, governance and KPIs alongside the team’s process owners, keeping things lean, practical and aligned with how engineering actually works.

risk scoring and automated approval of low-risk changes
Turn ideas into working improvements. Build the case, run pilots, measure results and scale what works across ServiceNow, PagerDuty, Grafana and the wider operations toolset.
Bring fresh ideas from the industry. Keep up with AIOps, SRE, ITIL 4/5, DevOps and agentic AI, and share what could work for TomTom.
Improve through data. Track measures like MTTD, MTTR, incident recurrence, alert-to-incident ratio and change failure rate, and use them to coach the team decide what to fix next.
Share what you learn. Run demos, document good practice and Mentor/coach colleagues get more out of AI tools every day.
