DevOps Engineer

DevOps Engineers in this space could focus on building and maintaining scalable cloud infrastructure, automating deployment pipelines and ensuring system reliability across distributed environments. A central theme could be bridging development and operations through modern tooling, containerisation and infrastructure-as-code practices., Roles of this type may sit within collaborative engineering teams where infrastructure, automation and reliability are core to the mission. The work could involve designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines, managing containerised workloads, provisioning cloud infrastructure and optimising system performance across Azure, AWS or other cloud platforms, with scope to improve deployment efficiency and reduce operational friction., * Designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines to automate build, test and deployment workflows

• Managing containerised applications using Docker and Kubernetes across cloud environments
• Provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform
• Supporting deployment and configuration of applications built with .NET, ASP.NET, Java and Spring Boot frameworks
• Monitoring system performance, reliability and security across distributed systems
• Collaborating with development teams to troubleshoot issues and optimise application delivery
• Documenting infrastructure configurations, processes and runbooks
• Supporting Linux and Windows environments and maintaining network security practices

• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS or GCP)
• Working knowledge of containerisation (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes)
• Experience designing or maintaining CI/CD pipelines using industry-standard tools
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code practices using Terraform or similar tools
• Understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems
• Scripting or automation experience using Bash, Python or similar languages
• Experience with SQL databases and basic data pipeline concepts
• Authorization to work in the United Kingdom

Nice-to-have

• AWS Certified DevOps Engineer certification
• Experience with .NET, ASP.NET, Java or Spring Boot application environments
• Exposure to Kubernetes advanced concepts or multi-cloud deployments
• Knowledge of API design and integration patterns
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field

Most roles of this type offer the following, dependent on the industry and seniority of the role:

• Opportunity to work across modern cloud platforms and containerisation technologies
• Scope to influence infrastructure design and deployment practices
• Exposure to scaled, distributed systems and reliability engineering challenges
• Potential to build expertise in emerging DevOps practices and tooling
• Flexible contract engagement allowing focused technical contribution
• Collaborative environment with development and operations teams
• Exposure to infrastructure challenges across financial services, technology and engineering sectors
