Job in a nutshell:

We are in the process of expanding our core platform team to build out our award-winning web and investment management platform.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will be responsible for looking after the heart of what makes Nutmeg the company it is. You'll be heavily involved with all our technical infrastructure, from designing, monitoring and metrics through to building infrastructure and CI/CD tools.

Our team run a cutting-edge AWS-based environment and want to stay at the forefront of technical innovation. We need people who are passionate about technology, who understand that testing and quality is the responsibility of the entire tech team and are equipped to take the lead by writing brilliant code and simply getting stuff done at a fast pace.

We believe in autonomy and giving people the opportunity to come up with new ideas to help us drive the business forward. We feel that the best engineers (and the ones we want to work with) are self-starters and who can work well as part of a larger team and who can build enthusiasm and empower the team with their ideas, making sure their goals work for everyone (not just focusing on current or short-term goals).
