• Provide the team manager with clear visibility of progress, emerging risks and decisions requiring attention.

Technical Partnership and Team Effectiveness

• Act as a trusted technical partner to the team manager, supporting day-to-day decisions and helping translate priorities into action.
• Exercise sound technical and delivery judgement, including making appropriate decisions when the manager is unavailable and escalating matters that require their authority.
• Facilitate collaboration across Development, Infrastructure, Security and other technology teams.
• Identify opportunities to improve processes, reduce delivery friction and strengthen consistency across the team.
• Share knowledge and help colleagues navigate complex technical challenges.

• Experience taking ownership of technical deliveries and coordinating work across teams, projects or technology domains.
• An understanding of automation, Infrastructure as Code and Continuous Integration.
• Familiarity with infrastructure standards, security principles, ITIL and Agile/Scrum practices.

Required Soft Skills

• A good understanding of Continuous Integration principles
