Role: Lead DevSecOps Engineer Location: Nottingham Working Arrangement: Hybrid working policy of twice per week in the office ideally, or remote, depending on how far away you live Salary: Up to £70k plus benefits You re a Senior DevOps/DevSecOps Engineer who has come from an infrastructure background- seeing the transition from traditional infrastructure and networking to more cloud-based solutions. You are someone who loves to automate mundane tasks, make scalable, highly available, and robust solutions, and making sure whatever you re working on is secure, through things like vulnerability scanning, threat analysis, and patching, is high on your priority list. Whilst you love new shiny tech and always make a point of having a play around with the latest and greatest, you are a pragmatic person who knows that the best tool for the job might not be the latest buzzword- you know that sometimes you can t beat the tried and tested methods! Tech-wise, you can t get enough of Kubernetes, you are a big Linux fan, and have been using a host of Cloud and DevOps tools like Helm, Ansible, and AWS/GCP/OCI/Azure etc, for some time and, more recently have added in some Terraform, GitOps and Argo CD to your arsenal, and you have a great time playing around and seeing what you can do with them. You probably run a home server and have a whale of a time building home automations, with a nerdy project on the go to test out some of the myriad new technologies out there! If this describes you, read on, this is your next role! In this role, you ll be a senior member of a platform team, which is made up of a mix of differing levels of engineers who will surely benefit from your technical DevOps knowledge- you ll be the sole DevOps person in the company so you ll be driving the company s DevOps tech strategy and direction, but please note that there is no management as part of this role. Being fully hands-on keyboard, you will be making key improvements to the security and efficiency of a just-released product and, further down the line, there s scope for you to get involved in R&D and Proof of Concept (POC) projects. You ll be using the tech mentioned above- Kubernetes, Helm, Ansible, AWS/Azure/GCP/OCI, etc. Whilst you ll use AWS and potentially OCI/GCP/Azure for some parts of your role, you ll also be working with private cloud and on-prem models, too, due to the nature of the sensitive work they do and the customers they serve. Working here will see you working on some very cool products that help the defence, government, and other critical infrastructure sectors to do their important work without interference from bad actors. Due to the nature of what you ll be making, you ll need to be eligible and willing to obtain SC clearance. If this sounds like what you ve been looking for, please 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.

In this role, you ll be a senior member of a platform team, which is made up of a mix of differing levels of engineers who will surely benefit from your technical DevOps knowledge- you ll be the sole DevOps person in the company so you ll be driving the company s DevOps tech strategy and direction, but please note that there is no management as part of this role. Being fully hands-on keyboard, you will be making key improvements to the security and efficiency of a just-released product and, further down the line, there s scope for you to get involved in R&D and Proof of Concept (POC) projects. You ll be using the tech mentioned above- Kubernetes, Helm, Ansible, AWS/Azure/GCP/OCI, etc. Whilst you ll use AWS and potentially OCI/GCP/Azure for some parts of your role, you ll also be working with private cloud and on-prem models, too, due to the nature of the sensitive work they do and the customers they serve. Working here will see you working on some very cool products that help the defence, government, and other critical infrastructure sectors to do their important work without interference from bad actors. Due to the nature of what you ll be making, you ll need to be eligible and willing to obtain SC clearance. If this sounds like what you ve been looking for, please 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.
