Senior Site Reliability Engineer (AWS / CDK / TypeScript)

Remote First – Occasional travel to Leeds

£40,000 - £50,000 + benefits

No Sponsorship Available

VIQU have partnered with a major UK technology-led organisation undergoing a significant transformation following a large-scale business merger. As part of a wider move away from contractor-heavy delivery, they are investing heavily in permanent engineering talent and building out a high-performing cloud and platform function.

They are looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to help improve the reliability, scalability and automation of their AWS estate. This is a hands-on engineering role working across cloud infrastructure, observability, CI/CD and platform tooling, helping development teams deliver faster and more reliably.

You’ll be joining a collaborative engineering environment with the opportunity to influence platform standards, improve operational resilience and support modern DevOps and SRE practices across the business.

Key responsibilities:

Build, maintain and improve scalable AWS infrastructure.

Develop and manage Infrastructure as Code using AWS CDK.

Support CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation.

Improve monitoring, logging and observability across distributed systems.

Support incident management, root cause analysis and platform reliability improvements.

Work closely with engineering and architecture teams to improve operational performance and security.

Contribute to cloud best practice, automation and platform engineering standards.

Key requirements:

Strong experience in a Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps or Platform Engineering role.

Strong AWS experience within production environments.

Experience with AWS CDK (TypeScript preferred).

Strong TypeScript experience.

Experience with CI/CD tooling such as Jenkins or GitLab CI.

Containerisation experience with Docker, Kubernetes, EKS or ECS.

Experience with observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana, AppDynamics or OpenSearch.

Experience with scripting or development using Python, TypeScript or Java.

Understanding of cloud security and reliability best practices.

AWS certifications are desirable but not essential.

Where to Advertise Cloud Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise cloud computing jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach AWS, Azure, GCP and cloud-native engineering talent. The candidate pool is large relative to other deep tech disciplines but highly segmented — cloud architects, DevOps engineers, platform engineers, FinOps specialists and cloud security professionals each occupy distinct communities with different job search behaviours, certification profiles and salary expectations. General job boards reach a broad audience but struggle to differentiate between these disciplines, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist cloud roles. This guide, published by CloudComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise cloud computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Cloud Computing Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cloud Computing Jobs UK 2026: salaries, hiring trends and the AWS, Azure and GCP skills shaping UK cloud careers over the next three years. Cloud computing is the infrastructure layer on which the modern digital economy runs — and the jobs market that has grown around it is one of the largest, most sustained, and most structurally resilient in the entire technology sector. But the cloud computing jobs market of 2026 looks quite different from the one that existed three years ago, and the next three years will bring further change at a pace that rewards those who understand the direction of travel. The migration phase that defined cloud hiring for much of the previous decade is largely complete for enterprise organisations. The question for most UK businesses is no longer whether to move to the cloud but how to operate, optimise, and secure what they have already built there — and how to integrate the wave of AI capability that is now being delivered primarily through cloud infrastructure. That shift has profound implications for which cloud skills are in demand, which roles are growing, and which are beginning to plateau. At the same time, new architectural patterns — multi-cloud, cloud-native, serverless, and the growing integration of edge computing with centralised cloud infrastructure — are creating entirely new categories of specialist expertise that employers are actively competing to hire. The cloud computing jobs market of 2026 is not contracting. It is evolving, and evolving in ways that create significant opportunity for job seekers who are building the right skills. This article breaks down what the UK cloud computing jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
