System Engineer at Nike in Laakdal, Belgium

System Engineer

Location: Laakdal, Belgium

WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

The Infrastructure Engineer joins the Client Engineering team and partners with IT and cross-functional teams to keep the technology Athletes* rely on secure, reliable, and high-performing. Reporting to the Manager, Client Engineering, this role owns the endpoint estate end to end across two connected environments: mobile endpoints, including handheld and vehicle-mounted devices used throughout the workplace, and fixed endpoints, including ThinClient devices and label printers at workstations and operational lines.

Client Engineering supports Athletes* across distribution, corporate, and retail environments. The role will initially focus on the distribution landscape, where the team’s most significant work is planned for the coming years. The standards established in this role will scale across the broader endpoint estate, creating opportunities to expand into corporate and retail environments as the team’s scope evolves.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

The team is looking for an engineer who can connect mobile and fixed endpoint environments and establish consistent standards across the full estate. These endpoints support the same Athletes*, applications, and operations, making a unified approach essential. The role offers a broad, high-impact remit. A successful candidate may bring deeper expertise in one area and will have the team’s support, established platforms, and opportunities to build capability across the other.

The ideal candidate brings sound judgement, analytical thinking, and a proactive approach. They use automation to simplify work, strengthen reliability, and deliver consistent outcomes in a fast-moving operational environment.

• Working knowledge of endpoint security, risk management, and compliance standards

• Interest in declarative, version-controlled configuration management, including GitOps, as the team builds toward this future-state approach

• Strong problem-solving, troubleshooting, collaboration, and communication skills

WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

You will design, implement, and maintain the endpoint infrastructure that powers daily operations. Your work will give Athletes* secure, reliable, and high-performing technology, whether they are using a mobile device or working at a fixed workstation.
