Base64 is a team within the value stream IT Foundation. The team is responsible for delivering generic integration building blocks. The building blocks are used by the EDSN DevOps teams to develop agile systems to support the Dutch energy market. An essential part of the solutions our team provides is Self Service (preferably declarative via GitOps). This means that teams can use the building blocks without depending directly on us.
Our team is service-oriented and has a lot of contact with other teams, so we also pay attention to the soft skills required.
