Site Reliability Engineer | Up to £95,000 DOE | Fully Remote Initially | Cheltenham | Future Hybrid Working

Build resilient systems. Solve complex challenges. Make a real impact.

Are you a Site Reliability Engineer or DevOps professional who enjoys getting stuck into complex infrastructure challenges?

Do you want to work with talented engineers on meaningful projects where reliability, security and technical excellence really matter?

This could be your next opportunity.

We’re looking for an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to join a growing technology business of more than 100 people across the UK. You’ll play a key role in designing, building and maintaining resilient systems that support critical operations, while helping shape the technology and practices that underpin them.

What’s in it for you?

This is a genuinely hands-on role with plenty of scope to influence technical direction, solve interesting problems and make improvements that have a tangible impact.

You’ll initially work fully remotely, with the potential to move to a hybrid arrangement in Cheltenham in the future. Subject to eligibility, you’ll also have the opportunity to progress through security clearance, potentially up to DV level.

You’ll be joining a collaborative environment where learning, development and continuous improvement are actively encouraged.

Your Role

As a Site Reliability Engineer, you’ll work across the full infrastructure stack — from bare-metal systems and physical infrastructure through to virtualised environments and the applications running on them.

Your responsibilities will include:

Designing, building and maintaining reliable, scalable physical and virtual infrastructure

Monitoring system performance and proactively identifying and resolving issues

Automating processes using tools such as Ansible

Working with infrastructure as code and configuration management

Supporting CI/CD and wider automation practices

Implementing and improving monitoring, logging and alerting

Collaborating with engineers, stakeholders and wider teams

Identifying opportunities to improve system performance, reliability and efficiency

Contributing to the continuous improvement of tools, systems and engineering practices

What are we looking for?

You don’t need to tick every single box. If you have strong experience across most of the following, we’d love to hear from you:

Experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps or a similar infrastructure-focused role

Strong knowledge of cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure or GCP

Experience with Infrastructure as Code and configuration management tools such as Terraform and Ansible

Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automation

Understanding of monitoring, logging and alerting technologies

A methodical, collaborative approach to problem-solving

A genuine interest in building reliable, secure and scalable systems

The Package

£75,000 – £95,000 salary, depending on experience

Annual bonus

8% non-contributory pension

28 days’ holiday plus bank holidays

Option to buy or sell an additional week of holiday

Private healthcare

Life insurance

Enhanced parental leave

Flexible working

Learning, development and career progression opportunities

A supportive, inclusive team environment

The opportunity to work on meaningful, technically challenging projects

Location & Security Clearance

The role is fully remote initially. Following successful security clearance, there may be a requirement to work 2–3 days per week onsite in Cheltenham in the future.

Due to the nature of the work and the sectors supported, employment will be subject to successful completion of the relevant security screening and clearance process.

Candidates must be eligible for BPSS / SC / DV clearance and meet the relevant UK Government residency and right-to-work requirements associated with the required level of clearance.
