About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Supporting our developers across the organization who publish their APIs to our self-service platform - answering questions, debugging issues, advising on security choices
Digging into the unglamorous stuff - log analysis, socket timeouts, OS-level investigation, platform behavior under load
Owning the platform's health - performance, security, lifecycle governance, monitoring
Building and maintaining the tooling around API promotion, quality scanning, environment management (we have some Ansible scripts and small tools in place)
Upgrading the platform with high availability and no downtime
Helping shape what's next - including our move toward cloud and (eventually) Kubernetes

Requirements

What you’ll need

Solid grasp of API Management concepts - lifecycle, governance, monitoring, rate limiting, observability, SLAs.
Experience with at least one API Management platform - WSO2 (what JYSK runs), Azure API Management, Kong, Apigee, MuleSoft, AWS API Gateway, IBM API Connect, or similar.
API security - OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, mTLS, threat protection
Comfortable in Linux environments — you can navigate, read logs, troubleshoot at OS level
Some coding background - you don't need to be a developer, but you should be able to read and write code when needed (any language; Java is a small plus)
Bonus points for: container orchestration / Kubernetes, cloud platforms, integration patterns, platform engineering background
