Job description

I am exclusively recruiting the 1st AWS DevOps Engineer for a fast-growing, clinical-stage life sciences organisation developing a first-in-class technology to tackle diseases, including cancer and autoimmune conditions.

The business is privately funded, entering a critical growth phase, and investing heavily into its data and cloud capability to support scientific discovery and clinical delivery. With active clinical programmes underway, technology is a core enabler rather than a support function.

You must be UK based and this role requires a minimum of 1 day per month in their offices in Oxfordshire.

Your new role This role exists because science has moved faster than infrastructure. Your job is to build the platform that lets world-class scientists move even faster without breaking things.

You will join a small, highly collaborative IT and data function, working closely with bioinformaticians and scientists to design and build a scalable, secure and reproducible AWS platform.

This role sits at the intersection of DevOps, data engineering and scientific computing. You will own cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines and workflow automation, enabling complex data and bioinformatics pipelines to run reliably, repeatably and at scale.

You will play a key role in shaping data strategy, governance and reproducibility standards as the organisation grows from discovery into later-stage clinical development.
