Location UK wide - London, Croydon, Woking, Telford, Aston, Liverpool and Manchester Some wider UK mobility may be required. Successful candidates must be willing to undergo SC level Security Clearance. Mobility With the coronavirus pandemic accelerating digital transformation around the globe, Capgemini, as a leading cloud and digital services supplier, is ideally placed to offer its employees and clients the benefits of more flexible working policies. We believe that there are many benefits to our clients, our employees and our organisation of significantly increased remote working - including increased employee productivity, improved work/life balance for employees and greater corporate sustainability in line with our environmental ambitions. We also understand significant remote working can lead to employee wellbeing and satisfaction issues, if not appropriately supported. Within our Capgemini UK Public Sector business, we have a remote working policy that gives autonomy and empowerment to our workforce . We believe this ultimately drives productivity and employee satisfaction, which in turn leads to satisfied clients and company success. Our policy recognises that everyone has different requirements, and needs clarity on expectations including: where and when people can work remotely; what equipment is provided; how regular and personalised two-way communication will take place; what security considerations are required around the work we do; how goals are set and successes celebrated; and how employee wellbeing is supported. Capgemini is a client-led organisation, but we offer a remote-first working policy to our clients. Our expectation is that our employees can work for up to 70% of their time remotely in any given month. As our ethos is to provide excellent service to our clients, we will balance client needs with employee preferences where possible, but there will be times when we will ask you to attend meetings or collaboration events with clients either on client-site or in Capgemini offices. Typically this means that you could expect to travel to a site for work two or three times per month. Alternatively, If you'd prefer to work in an office with your client or colleagues more frequently than this, we can arrange this too. In short, it's all about finding a balance between client needs, employee preferences and reducing the impact of travel on the environment in a flexible and pragmatic way - but whatever your requirements for remote working, we believe that Capgemini can meet them, in a way that works for you, us and our clients. Our policy also fully aligns us with UK Gov's social value and sustainable development goals."

Utilising the latest DevOps methodologies to drive change within an organisation. The Work The initial focus of this role will be to migrate existing infrastructure into Microsoft Azure - following an infrastructure code approach with varying levels of transformation. Some of the technologies in use on the project are but not limited to: Linux (RHEL) Windows 2016/2019 Hashicorp (packer / terraform / consul / vault) Ansible, PowerShell DSC Azure Resource Manager Templates Docker Kubernetes (Azure Kubernetes Service) IaaS Virtual Machines Azure Active Directory Azure VNet configuration Azure Network Security Groups Azure WebApps Azure DevOps Graphite / Grafana / Prometheus /OpsView / ELK Why this role? This role is for you if you can drive & deliver in the following areas; Looking to influence & improve the DevOps processes already in place See the "real world" impact your work has on a business in both monetary & business value. Drive the uptake of PaaS services within a cloud environment. Build & become a part of a highly skilled team. Drive technology change forward. Why you? As a member of our team, you will be able too; • Lead by example • Be a team player • Advocate the use of DevOps principals • Harvest a collaborative working environment • Drive change within an environment to push out reliable & repeatable changes Why us?

Job Introduction Are you looking for a role that builds on your experience with engineering data systems and brings hands-on experience with machine learning? Are you keen to learn, grow, and develop? Do you want to work in a nurturing culture where you can flourish and be your best? Would you like to work on services that are used by key BBC products and millions of people each day? If so, this opportunity could be for you. The Content Publishing team's mission is to build unrivalled fully-accessible tools to enable journalists across the globe to create, curate and describe the world's best journalism content in over 40 languages. Our team is central to the success of the BBC. We are in the middle of solving some big questions: How do we put tagging at the heart of a personalised BBC? How can we use data to better understand what we make and how we make it, to build a more personalised and engaging experience for our audience? We're figuring out the answers to these questions and more like them, and we're looking for help. If any of these challenges excite you then come and join us. Role Responsibility We are looking for a Principal Data Engineer to lead engineering on projects that use data to improve content creation. Our projects include a machine learning system that suggests tags for pieces of content, and a knowledge graph that helps us connect and better understand the articles and programmes that we produce. We aim to build a world-leading suite of tools that use data to streamline the creation of relevant and personalised content. Our data engineers ensure the efficient running of pipelines that ingest, process and summarise data, and work closely with data scientists to develop machine learning models and put them into production. You will work in cross-functional teams alongside Product, Editorial, UX, Software Engineers, Data Scientists and other Data Engineers, and will mentor more junior colleagues. We value learning and create a supportive environment for people to follow their interests and develop personally and professionally, through structured training and on-the-job experience. As Principal, you will help to set the technical direction of the team, developing and representing our best practice. You will be a passionate and experienced engineer with a background in either software or data engineering and be keen to enhance your skills in data services and systems.

Job Introduction Are you looking for a role that builds on your experience with engineering data systems and brings hands-on experience with machine learning? Are you keen to learn, grow, and develop? Do you want to work in a nurturing culture where you can flourish and be your best? Would you like to work on services that are used by key BBC products and millions of people each day? If so, this opportunity could be for you. The Content Publishing team's mission is to build unrivalled fully-accessible tools to enable journalists across the globe to create, curate and describe the world's best journalism content in over 40 languages. Our team is central to the success of the BBC. We are in the middle of solving some big questions: How do we put tagging at the heart of a personalised BBC? How can we use data to better understand what we make and how we make it, to build a more personalised and engaging experience for our audience? We're figuring out the answers to these questions and more like them, and we're looking for help. If any of these challenges excite you then come and join us. Role Responsibility We are looking for a Principal Data Engineer to lead engineering on projects that use data to improve content creation. Our projects include a machine learning system that suggests tags for pieces of content, and a knowledge graph that helps us connect and better understand the articles and programmes that we produce. We aim to build a world-leading suite of tools that use data to streamline the creation of relevant and personalised content. Our data engineers ensure the efficient running of pipelines that ingest, process and summarise data, and work closely with data scientists to develop machine learning models and put them into production. You will work in cross-functional teams alongside Product, Editorial, UX, Software Engineers, Data Scientists and other Data Engineers, and will mentor more junior colleagues. We value learning and create a supportive environment for people to follow their interests and develop personally and professionally, through structured training and on-the-job experience. As Principal, you will help to set the technical direction of the team, developing and representing our best practice.
