Job description

DevOps Engineer, AWS

£50,000 | Fully Remote, UK | Permanent

Are you an AWS-focused DevOps Engineer looking for a hands-on role where you can have a genuine impact on a live production environment?

We're recruiting for an established UK technology business that develops and operates high-availability, data-driven platforms used by customers in fast-moving environments.

You'll join an experienced engineering team and work alongside an existing DevOps Engineer, helping operate, support and improve the AWS infrastructure behind their production systems.

The Role

Operating and improving production AWS infrastructure
Maintaining and improving CI/CD pipelines
Supporting Docker and Kubernetes environments
Automating deployment and operational processes
Improving monitoring, logging and alerting
Troubleshooting production and infrastructure issues
Reviewing cloud provisioning, scaling and performance
Identifying opportunities to improve AWS cost efficiency
Working closely with developers on deployment and runtime issues
Supporting security, backup and operational resilience

This isn't a role where you'll be expected to arrive and rebuild everything from scratch. You'll be joining an established environment with genuine scope to improve how it operates.

What We're Looking For

You’ll need hands-on experience supporting AWS infrastructure within a production environment, alongside experience with:

Linux administration and troubleshooting
CI/CD pipelines
Git-based workflows
Docker and containerised applications
Networking fundamentals
Infrastructure or operational automation
Monitoring, logs and metrics

Experience with Kubernetes/EKS, Terraform, CloudFormation, CloudWatch, Grafana, Prometheus or AWS cost optimisation would be particularly useful, although you don't need everything on this list.

We're looking for a practical, collaborative engineer who enjoys investigating problems, taking ownership and improving existing systems.
