Over the past 8 years we have gone through a period of growth, we now enter a stage where we want and need to mature, which results in numerous projects to simplify, improve and upgrade our infrastructure and systems.

There will be plenty of opportunity to be innovative and to come up with new solutions as you design and implement new physical and virtual infrastructure.

We are keen to speak to those that love to research and explore, you may not always know the answers straight away, but you are someone who loves the challenge in finding out.

As well as the new you will be part of a team ensuring the existing is maintained, reliable, resilient, and secure and our applications are installed and operating smoothly, whilst mentoring other, less experienced engineers in the team.

We are keen to speak to people with strong Linux administration backgrounds to manage existing Linux based servers, both on-prem and cloud hosted, including management of the deployment of security patches, distribution upgrades and configuration management, installation/configuration/operation of the applications running on the servers.

You will be someone who is looking for an opportunity that gives you exposure to projects such as, building a virtualisation platform, how can solutions such as Kubernetes be used in a hybrid on-prem/public cloud environment and a role where Infrastructure as Code is the default go to (Ansible / Terraform).

Note: this role is part of the 24/ 7 on call rota, although call outs are rare this would be 1 in 4 and is renumerated separately.
