Recognising that everyone brings their own strengths, backgrounds and new perspectives, we empower you to be yourself. That uniqueness shapes the culture of belonging we are so proud of.

The Role

As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will play a key role in designing, building, and scaling the infrastructure and internal tooling that powers our engineering teams. You’ll focus on delivering secure, scalable, and developer-friendly platform capabilities that accelerate product delivery while improving operational efficiency and resilience.

In this hands-on role, you’ll work closely with engineers, architects, and cross-functional partners to evolve our core platform—contributing to areas such as deployment workflows, observability, data services, and networking. You will be a strong individual contributor who also mentors others and champions best practices across the team. Your work will enable autonomy, consistency, and security across the engineering organization.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Designing and implementing platform features and infrastructure that support the scalability, security, and reliability of our systems.
• Building reusable, self-service components that abstract complexity and improve developer productivity.
• Writing high-quality, maintainable code and applying infrastructure-as-code principles for repeatable, auditable changes.
• Partnering with product, security, and operations teams to align on requirements and ensure solutions meet evolving business and technical needs.
• Participating in design and architecture discussions to ensure platform scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
• Supporting incident response and contributing to post-incident reviews and platform reliability improvements.
• Driving adoption of best practices in automation, observability, and secure-by-default infrastructure design.
• Mentoring junior engineers and contributing to a culture of learning, collaboration, and technical excellence.

What You’ll Bring

• Significant hands-on experience in platform engineering, SRE, infrastructure, or DevOps roles.
• Proficiency with Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure (AWS), containerization, IaC (e.g. Terraform) and configuration management (e.g. Ansible).
• A strong background in system design, distributed systems, and software engineering principles.
• Experience building internal platform capabilities such as deployment systems, monitoring/observability tooling, or infrastructure automation.
• Solid understanding of CI/CD principles, pipeline design, and operational best practices.
• Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to navigate complexity and make sound technical decisions.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work across teams and disciplines.
• A mindset of ownership and continuous improvement, with a passion for creating scalable and developer-friendly systems.
