I'm currently seeking a DevOps Manager to join a leading international tech company in Birmingham and take full ownership of the strategy, delivery, and optimisation of secure, scalable, and reliable infrastructure that powers mission-critical platforms for a growing global client base.
In this role, you’ll set the vision for our DevOps function, aligning technology, people, and processes to meet the demands of a fast-moving, cloud-first environment. You’ll lead multiple workstreams, develop high-performing teams, and partner with senior stakeholders to ensure our platforms evolve in step with business growth — without compromising on stability, security, or cost efficiency.
Key Responsibilities:

  • Define and own the DevOps strategy, ensuring alignment with business and technology objectives.

  • Champion modern monitoring, observability, and incident management practices to maintain high availability.
  • Partner with engineering, architecture, and product leadership to accelerate delivery and reduce operational friction.
  • Drive adoption of FinOps principles to balance technical ambition with commercial responsibility.
  • Stay ahead of industry trends to ensure our DevOps capabilities remain best-in-class.
    Key experience required:
  • Significant leadership experience managing DevOps, SRE, or platform engineering functions.
  • Deep expertise in Azure Cloud, containerisation, infrastructure as code, and automation.
  • Proven track record in designing and managing large-scale CI/CD systems (Azure DevOps preferred).
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with experience influencing at C-suite or senior leadership level.
  • Demonstrated success in improving system resilience, performance, and cost efficiency.
  • Relevant certifications (Azure, DevOps, or cloud architecture) are highly desirable.
    Why you should apply:
  • Hybrid working model (split between home and our Birmingham office).
  • Competitive salary with genuine authority to shape the DevOps strategy and operating model.
  • Work on innovative, high-impact projects across international markets.
  • Join a culture built on trust, collaboration, and continuous learning.
    If you’re ready to take strategic control of a global DevOps capability, lead talented engineers, and deliver game-changing infrastructure solutions, we’d love to hear from you

How Many Cloud Computing Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Cloud Job?

If you are aiming for a role in cloud computing, it can feel like the skills list never ends. One job advert asks for AWS, Terraform and Kubernetes. Another mentions Azure DevOps, PowerShell and ARM templates. A third throws in Docker, Python, Linux, CI/CD, monitoring tools and security frameworks. It is no surprise that many cloud job seekers feel overwhelmed before they even apply. Here is the reality most cloud hiring managers agree on: they are not hiring you because you know every cloud tool. They are hiring you because you understand cloud concepts, can design reliable systems, manage costs, keep things secure and support real workloads. Tools matter, but only when they support outcomes. So how many cloud computing tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most roles, the answer is far fewer than you think. This article explains what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable and employable rather than scattered.
