We're seeking a highly skilled DevOps professional with deep expertise in Microsoft Azure, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and cloud automation to design, build and optimise secure, scalable and resilient cloud solutions. Working at the heart of our technology function, you'll help shape our cloud strategy, champion platform best practices, and empower software and data engineering teams to deliver innovative products faster, more reliably and at scale. This is a hybrid role, with two days a week expected in the London office. Main Duties and Responsibilities * Strict IaC Management: Define, version, and manage multi-cloud GPU and CPU infrastructure strictly through modular, reusable Terraform. * GitOps & GitFlow: Enforce rigorous GitFlow branching strategies, code reviews, and automated deployment practices for all infrastructure changes. * Azure DevOps Pipelines: Design, build, and maintain secure, high-speed CI/CD pipelines within Azure DevOps to automate code promotion and MLOps workflows. * Incident Management: Lead the response, containment, and resolution of critical platform outages, serving as a primary escalation point for high-priority cloud and infrastructure incidents. * Proactive Problem Solving: Diagnose complex, low-latency platform bottlenecks, performance regressions, and cloud-to-cloud networking issues, implementing permanent structural fixes to prevent recurrence. * Third-Party Operational Coordination: Act as the direct engineering point of contact for external support teams, actively collaborating on active incident tickets, complex escalations, and day-to-day infrastructure maintenance. * Cross-Functional Communication: Document complex technical architectures clearly and articulate system requirements, post-mortems, and engineering strategies effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. * AI/ML Platform Automation: Architect and maintain highly available MLOps platforms across AWS and Azure environments. * Developer Enablement: Build self-service infrastructure tools, deployment templates, and continuous training/inference pipelines to eliminate friction. Why you should apply We offer an encouraging and collaborative environment, forward-thinking team that views every technical roadblock not as a headache, but as an exciting puzzle to solve. If you love pushing the boundaries of automation and want to turn your intellectual curiosity into production-level reality, this is the place for you. ## Related Videos - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [The journey from developer to devops - what i've learnt along the way](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/238-the-journey-from-developer-to-devops-what-i-ve-learnt-along-the-way) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift)
