- **Company:** ECM Selection Limited
- **Location:** Cambridge, UK
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Amazon Web Services, Computing Platforms, Microsoft Azure, Virtual Private Servers, Continuous Delivery, DevOps, Git, Build Management, Terraform, Devsecops, Jenkins
- **Published:** August 24, 2026
- **Apply:** https://www.ecmselection.co.uk/register/27465

## About the Role

* Experience managing servers, storage (and ideally) network resources both on-premises and in the cloud (AWS, Azure).
 * Skills creating and managing infrastructure as code (IaC) templates with the likes of Terraform.
 * Knowledge of DevOps, CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Jenkins, or any suitable), Git triggers and the like.
 * Awareness of security concerns and practices (certificates, secrets, and hardening systems against ingress).
 * The ability to communicate clearly, and a willingness to learn new techniques and technologies whilst collaborating with colleagues.

Additional experience of virtualised containers, hypervisors, more advanced networking and/or DevSecOps is a plus.

Given the nature of the role, the company needs someone full time in the office, hence seeking applicants local to Cambridge or clearly keen and able to relocate. UK work permission without time limit or sponsorship is also a prerequisite. Salaries are competitive, and benefits include a strong pension, bonuses and private medical cover.
