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!
