  • Automate infrastructure using Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes (EKS), ensuring scalability and reproducibility.
  • Lead and evangelise DevOps best practices across engineering teams, CI/CD hygiene, observability, and cost-efficient architectures.
  • Implement and maintain monitoring, alerting, and incident response systems using tools like OpsGenie, New Relic, and ELK.
  • Optimise the performance and utilisation of key systems such as Redis, RDS, Redshift, ElasticSearch, and Kafka.
  • Partner with security and platform teams to ensure compliance, resilience, and threat protection across cloud environments.

  • Strong experience with Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and Linux (Ubuntu)
  • Hands-on scripting or coding skills in Python or Java.
  • Solid grasp of monitoring, alerting, and performance tuning principles.
  • Strong collaborator who can partner with developers, QA, and leadership teams to drive platform improvements.

Even better if you have

  • Experience implementing ArgoCD, Jenkins, or other CI/CD orchestration tools.
  • Background in security engineering, threat modelling, or penetration testing.
  • Knowledge of observability frameworks and modern APM tools (New Relic, Prometheus, Grafana).
  • Proven track record in cost optimisation and infrastructure scaling for high-traffic systems.
  • Experience working with multi-cloud or hybrid environments.

You will thrive in this role if

  • Bring a builder’s mindset to automate processes, simplify workflows, and empower others through effective tools.
  • Being passionate about reliability, scalability, and developer experience.
  • Enjoying owning systems end-to-end and solving production challenges hands-on.
  • Balances technical depth with empathy, understanding that infrastructure is successful only when developers can move faster and safer.
