SRE/DevOps Engineer (Kubernetes Admin - on premises)

About You

You are a DevOps or Site Reliability Engineer with a passion for cloud infrastructure and automation. You’re a self-starter and you love keeping up to date with the latest developments in cloud, configuration management, and container technologies. You understand the benefits of an immutable infrastructure and you enjoy enabling self-service deployments through continuous delivery pipelines.

However, you have a head for operations and you know that security, backups, scalability, and resilience are a paramount concern. You have a keen interest in security and you’re always looking for ways to use infrastructure-as-code to achieve security and compliance at scale. You understand that costs are a concern for the modern infrastructure engineer and you’re always looking for ways to reduce them.

You thrive in a collaborative DevOps culture and you love to work as part of a cross-functional agile product delivery team alongside developers, data scientists, product owners, and technical architects

Working extensively within our hybrid cloud environment (AWS, GCP, Azure, private VMWare cloud), you will be embedded within the product development and SRE squads to enable them to test and deploy software rapidly whilst ensuring the highest standards of reliability and security.

You will influence architectural decisions with a focus on security, scalability, cost, and high performance.

Part of your role will be to set up and maintain monitoring, metrics, and reporting systems for fine-grained observability and actionable alerting and also create and maintain appropriate backup, restore, and redundancy solutions for business-critical data.
