Join the team responsible for designing and building the UK's largest Public Wi-Fi network and a highly resilient IoT ecosystem. We are looking for an experienced Network Designer who thrives in a DevOps culture, managing everything from initial concept to full-scale deployment.

End-to-End Lifecycle: Work closely with product teams to take developments from the conceptual phase through to live operation.

Security & Optimization: Deploy critical upgrades and fixes to ensure network security and peak resilience.

Operational Support: Collaborate with the team to monitor service availability and resolve in-life technical issues.

Deployment: Plan and execute platform changes (occasional overnight work required to support test teams).

Technical Environment

We utilize a wide range of technologies to deliver world-beating customer experiences:

Connectivity: IPSec over Mobile/Broadband and Wi-Fi Access Points.

Hardware: Hardened customer routers, switching, and routing.

Infrastructure: Load balancing and firewalls.

Methodology: DevOps model for integrated build and support.

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.
