About This Role

By utilising DevOps, businesses deliver systems faster, cheaper, and without sacrificing high quality. It is an environment, a philosophical mindset, and a real-world framework that brings together development and operations to create stable, repeatable platforms for product deployment.

To become a DevOps specialist, you need technical and soft skills to seamlessly collaborate with multiple teams. Engineers use tools to deploy infrastructure as code, create automation, test platforms during deployment, and monitor systems for rapid, up-to-date reporting.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will collaborate with development and operations teams to automate application deployment across multiple environments.

You will monitor system health and performance, troubleshoot issues, and implement infrastructure as code to manage resources effectively. You will also contribute to developing and improving DevOps practices and processes.

We’re not expecting you to be an expert right away — that’s where our award-winning Academy comes in. We focus on building skills and confidence in a fun, supportive environment that develops you into a confident, capable consultant.

What we're looking for

Demonstrable ability in Python or similar, with a passion for technology and eagerness to learn advanced programming skills.

Values we seek in candidates

• Empathy and Diversity: Integrity, respect, and inclusivity.
• Drive: Goal-oriented with pride in exceeding targets.
• Collaboration: Team-focused, fostering positive relationships.
• Innovation: Curious, creative, open to diverse ideas.
• Flexibility: Adaptable and composed in changing environments.

Candidates must be willing to relocate post-training for deployment to client sites across the UK. Remote work cannot be guaranteed. Eligibility to work in the UK (British or Irish citizenship, EU Settled Status, or Permanent Visa) is required. We do not sponsor visas or accept Graduate/PSW Visas.

Our environment nurtures your talents, with performance reviews every six months that can increase your earnings twice a year. We also offer:

• 20 days annual leave + bank holidays
• Birthday day off
• Pension, eye care, death in service cover
• Cycle to work, season ticket loans
