You're proactive, comfortable with ambiguity, and take pride in automation that just works. ## Description Are you a DevOps engineer who thrives building the infrastructure that lets great software ship fast, safely, and reliably? Do you want to own meaningful CI/CD transformation work in a payments business that genuinely values engineering excellence? We're working with a rapidly scaling global payments organisation that is building out a dedicated DevOps function from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to join early, influence the culture, and leave a real mark on how a complex, high-throughput technology estate is built and operated. The Opportunity: You'll be a key technical contributor in establishing a world-class CI/CD capability across on-premise and multi-cloud environments. The role touches everything from pipeline architecture and infrastructure-as-code to security gates, release automation, and cross-team enablement. You'll work closely with software teams to instil DevOps principles and drive a push-button deployment culture. This role is based on greenfield DevOps transformation, with the autonomy to make the right calls. What Makes It Interesting: * Build and shape a CI/CD platform from the ground up - real ownership, not inherited tech debt * Work across a polyglot engineering environment (.NET, Java) and multi-cloud infrastructure * Drive automation that directly reduces risk in a regulated payments environment * Collaborative culture that values outcomes, initiative, and engineering craft over process * Real scope to grow as the DevOps function scales What You'll Be Doing: * Design, build, and maintain reusable CI/CD pipelines with built-in quality and security gates * Drive automation that eliminates manual build, test, and deployment steps * Define and implement IaC strategies using Terraform and Ansible * Partner with engineering teams to embed DevOps principles and toolchain standards * Ensure platform security through best-in-class secrets management and cloud security controls * Monitor and improve platform reliability using delivery metrics (deployment frequency, MTTR, change failure rate) * Evaluate new tooling and provide technical guidance on architecture and process improvements ## Related Videos - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [My journey into DevOps world - How it all started!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/545-my-journey-into-devops-world-how-it-all-started) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [What Developers Get Wrong About Application Quality](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/233-what-developers-get-wrong-about-application-quality) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [DevOps Engineer Salary [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/203-devops-engineer-salary-2023) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Now is the time for industrialized software development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/601-now-is-the-time-for-industrialized-software-development) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers)
