The Opportunity

This is a fantastic chance to join a forward-thinking digital engineering team where you'll focus on improving and maintaining the tools and processes that support continuous integration, automated testing, and software delivery pipelines. The role is highly collaborative and hands-on, with a strong emphasis on automation, resilience, and enabling faster, more reliable software releases.

As well as technical delivery, you'll play an important part in championing DevOps culture-helping teams adopt agile practices, embedding continuous improvement, and sharing expertise across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop, and enhance CI/CD pipelines and release frameworks.
Provide operational support and optimisation for applications running in cloud environments (public and private).
Build and manage solutions with containerisation and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, service mesh).
Drive automation and scalability through infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation).
Contribute across the full software lifecycle-from planning through to production.
Mentor colleagues and act as a point of leadership in modern engineering practices.
Work closely with cross-functional teams to solve complex technical challenges.

What We're Looking For

Strong background in cloud platforms such as GCP, Azure, AWS, or OCP.
Hands-on experience with DevOps toolchains (Jenkins, Nexus, SonarQube, Git, Maven).
Solid programming ability-ideally in Java or JavaScript, though Python, Golang, or Rust are also valuable.
Experience with containers and orchestration frameworks.
Demonstrated ability to mentor or lead within technical teams.
A collaborative approach, with an interest in driving cultural and process improvements.
