Job description

Overview

System Administrator / Infrastructure Engineer

If you're the type who thrives on variety and solving real-world technical challenges, then this could be your next opportunity.

A new role has opened up for an System Administrator / Infrastructure Engineer with experience or a strong interest - in DevOps practices. This company designs cutting-edge monitoring technology that's deployed in sectors such as clean energy. You'd be joining a small but ambitious engineering team working on a mix of on-prem servers (Linux & Windows) and cloud-based solutions (Azure).

This is a hands-on role where you'll be involved in everything from managing internal infrastructure and user support, to improving build pipelines and exploring cloud technologies. The systems you manage will support both in-house developers and a growing fleet of connected devices, so there's plenty of scope to have a real impact.

While deep DevOps experience isn't essential, the team is keen to bring someone on board who's excited by automation, scripting, and learning new tools. If you've worked as a traditional SysAdmin but want to grow into DevOps, this could be a great step - provided you've had some exerience with containerisation.
