Job description

Employer description:

Tecknuovo is a technology consultancy with a deliberately different approach. This means we focus on people, not technology. We move at pace and ensure zero dependency on us at the end of each project. Our mission is to challenge our industry's norm of supplier dependency. We don't only build and deliver solutions – we train and up‑skill our customer's teams to transfer complete ownership to them after we exit the project. We help our customers achieve lasting transformation. We are techies, chefs, wannabe sports stars, coders, comedians, mothers, fathers, gamers, superhero's, bookworms, geeks, creatives and open. We are deliberately different.

Overview:

You’ll be part of the Delivery and Engineering Hub – the heart of how we bring value to our clients. The hub champions collaboration, continuous learning, and high standards in delivery. It’s a great place to start your career, surrounded by specialists who will support your growth and challenge you to think differently.

As a DevOps Apprentice, you’ll support our engineers and delivery teams by contributing to the infrastructure, automation, and monitoring systems that keep our projects running smoothly. You’ll work closely with the Engineering, Delivery and Data hubs, rotating across different client projects to build your hands‑on experience. You’ll report to a DevOps Lead or Senior Engineer, with a dedicated apprenticeship coach to support your formal learning.

Responsibilities:

• Assist with the configuration and monitoring of cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, Azure).
• Support in building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines.
• Write scripts to automate routine operational tasks (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell).
• Monitor system performance and help with issue resolution.
• Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams on client engagements.
• Participate in regular sprint planning and team retrospectives.
• Document infrastructure processes and share learnings with the team.

Desirable skills:

• Basic familiarity with a programming or scripting language (e.g., Python, Shell).
• An interest in cloud services such as AWS, Azure or GCP.
• Comfortable using Linux or command-line environments.
• Willingness to learn and grow in a fast‑paced consultancy environment.

Entry requirements:

• A Level in STEM subject, or
• BTEC Diploma in STEM subject, or
• Level 3 IT apprenticeship

You may also have a combination of qualifications and experience which demonstrate the minimum foundation needed for the programme. In this instance you could still be considered for the programme.

If you hold international equivalents of the above qualifications, at the time of your application you must be able to provide an official document that states how your international qualifications compare to the UK qualifications.

For more information please visit the UK ENIC website.

Working hours:

9am – 5pm, 3‑4 days in the office, Fridays working from home.

Benefits:

As part of our benefits package, everyone receives a Vitality membership, designed to support your overall health and wellbeing. It rewards healthy lifestyle choices – like staying active, eating well, and getting regular health checks – with discounts, perks, and partner offers. From reduced gym memberships and smartwatches to weekly coffee and cinema tickets, it’s a great way to stay motivated and feel good, inside and out.

We advocate for a continuous learning culture with bespoke training programmes to support you in your career growth. We recommend and contribute towards study materials, courses and conferences that will help you learn and further develop your skills. As well as conducting monthly growth canvases to support you in reaching your full potential.
