Description

The company is looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join its Technology team and play a key role in designing, building, and optimizing the application systems and platforms that power critical business operations on a global scale. In this role, you will apply deep technical expertise across CI/CD pipelines, container orchestration, cloud infrastructure, and observability to deliver resilient, high-quality software systems. Your work will directly shape how the company's engineering teams build, ship, and monitor production services across a complex and high-impact technology environment.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement CI/CD pipelines using Git, Tekton, and Harness to accelerate and standardize software delivery across engineering teams.
  • Build and manage containerized workloads on Kubernetes and OpenShift using Helm, ensuring systems are scalable, reliable, and production ready.
  • Architect and maintain observability solutions — including log aggregation with Splunk and Elastic/Kibana, and metrics monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana — to give engineering teams real-time visibility into system health.
  • Evaluate complex technical problems across application systems, business processes, and delivery pipelines, and develop engineering solutions that meet specific business requirements.
  • Collaborate with development teams, business users, and technology stakeholders to define operating standards, resolve technical issues, and recommend engineering improvements.
  • Develop and enforce security measures across the software delivery lifecycle, ensuring system design supports compliance with applicable policies and technical standards.
  • Act as a technical authority for junior and mid-level engineers, providing guidance, code review, and hands-on support to elevate team capability.
  • Required Qualifications & Skills
  • 4 to 8 years of experience in software engineering, systems development, or DevOps with demonstrated delivery in complex technical environments.
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD tooling, including Git-based workflows, pipeline configuration, and automated build and deployment processes.
  • Practical knowledge of Kubernetes and OpenShift for container orchestration, including Helm chart development and cluster management.
  • Working knowledge of Linux administration and shell scripting to support automation, system configuration, and operational tasks.
  • Experience delivering and managing software projects end-to-end, from planning and design through to testing and production deployment.
  • Ability to work autonomously in a fast-paced environment, managing competing priorities and adapting to changing technical or business requirements.
  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field or equivalent practical experience.
  • Beneficial Skills & Qualifications
  • Experience with AWS cloud services, including infrastructure provisioning, managed services, and cloud-native deployment patterns.
  • Background in observability engineering, including setting up APM tools such as AppDynamics or Datadog to monitor application performance in production.
  • Experience defining and measuring SLOs and SLIs for production services, translating reliability targets into actionable monitoring and alerting strategies.

Benefits

  • At the company, you will work on engineering challenges that operate at genuine global scale, within a team that values technical excellence, collaborative problem-solving, and continuous improvement.
  • A hybrid working model, with 3 days in the office and 2 days working remotely, giving you flexibility alongside meaningful in-person collaboration.
  • Exposure to a broad and modern technology stack spanning cloud infrastructure, container platforms, and advanced observability tooling.
  • The opportunity to operate with real autonomy, taking ownership of technical decisions and driving engineering standards across the team.
  • Access to learning and development programmes that support ongoing growth in cloud, DevOps, and platform engineering disciplines.
  • A competitive total compensation package, including financial well-being benefits and access to the company's broader employee support resources.
  • Wellbeing and family support programmes are designed to help you maintain balance and thrive both professionally and personally.
  • Apply now to bring your DevOps engineering expertise to a global technology team where your work shapes the reliability, security, and performance of systems that matter.
