Role: DevOps Engineer

Location: Office near Alderley Edge, Cheshire

Working Arrangements: Hybrid working policy of 2 days per week in the office, which is flexible, but the team go in typically on Tuesdays and Thursdays

Salary: Up to £65k plus benefits

I am working with a lovely company that is about to go through a period of transition, going from being a small company to becoming part of a global organisation due to an acquisition. It’s an exciting time for them- everyone there is jazzed for it!

They are hiring in a number of departments and DevOps is no different. You’ll go into a small DevOps team that’ll be headed up by a Lead Engineer who will mentor and guide you, developing your skills from the solid foundation you’ve already got. You’ll contribute, learn, and be rewarded with great career progression routes for your hard work.

You will be fully hands-on, using a range of tech, but centring around AWS and Terraform, initially.

Here’s an abbreviated list of tech/skills you’ll use in the role:

  • AWS & GCP and various services, including AWS ECS, EC2, Fargate, Lambda, and GCP Compute Engine, Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Cloud Storage, BigQuery, and IAM.

  • Terraform for IaC

  • Docker

  • Kubernetes

  • Linux (sysadmin including firewalls and hardening)

  • Web Server Config (Apache, Nginx)

  • Database management (MongoDB & MySQL) for high availability and backups

  • Git for version control

  • Programming/Scripting languages like Node/TypeScript, Python

  • Serverless Infrastructure

  • Network design & admin

    There is a planned, company-wide, migration from AWS over to GCP in the next year or so, so any familiarity with GCP would be hugely beneficial for the role and you’ll need to be comfortable in switching cloud providers yourself, to be happy in the role. Due to the acquisition, integration experience would be really handy, too.

    Whilst a tech alignment is necessary, it will always be secondary to culture and values fit: being a self-starter, curious, proactive, upbeat, and engaged team member is very important to them.

    This is a great role to go into if you want to learn lots, get stuck in, and get experience of solving some complex, enterprise scale problems!

    If this sounds right up your street, apply now or get in touch to find out more!

    We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background

Where to Advertise Data Engineering Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data engineering jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data engineers occupy a distinct discipline that sits between software engineering, data science and cloud infrastructure — and the strongest candidates identify firmly with the data engineering community rather than with adjacent roles. General job boards consistently conflate data engineering with data analysis, data science and BI development, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist pipeline and platform roles. This guide, published by DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data engineering roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Engineering Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data engineering has become one of the most strategically important disciplines in the entire technology sector — and one of the most reliably in-demand. Every organisation that wants to use data to make decisions, train AI models, personalise products, manage risk, or understand its customers depends on data engineers to build the infrastructure that makes any of that possible. Without well-designed, reliable data pipelines, the most sophisticated machine learning model is worthless and the most ambitious analytics strategy is undeliverable. That foundational importance has made data engineering hiring remarkably resilient through the technology market corrections of the past few years. Where headcount reductions fell heavily on some engineering disciplines, demand for data engineers held firm — because the work of building and maintaining data infrastructure cannot be deferred in the way that some product development can. The data keeps coming. The pipelines need to work. But the data engineering jobs market of 2026 is not simply a stable version of what it was three years ago. The discipline has undergone a series of architectural shifts — from batch to streaming, from on-premise data warehouses to cloud-native lakehouses, from hand-rolled pipelines to declarative transformation frameworks, and most recently toward AI-augmented data engineering workflows that are beginning to reshape what the role looks like in practice. The employers hiring data engineers today are asking for a meaningfully different skill set than those hiring three years ago. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which architectural patterns are becoming standard, which technologies are defining the modern data stack, and how the definition of a data engineering career is evolving toward a richer intersection of infrastructure, analytics, and AI enablement. This article breaks down what the UK data engineering jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.

New Data Engineering Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving the Data Revolution

Data engineering is at the heart of the digital economy, transforming raw data into actionable insights, powering analytics, AI systems, and cloud infrastructure. As the UK and global markets continue to invest heavily in data platforms, pipelines, and real-time analytics, demand for skilled data engineers is growing rapidly. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk , the critical question is: which companies are expanding, hiring, and shaping the future of data-driven business? This article highlights new data engineering employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, scale-ups, and international firms expanding in the UK.
