From managing our Azure infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines to shaping core developer tooling, we focus on scalability, resiliency, and security at every step. We’re always exploring new tools, testing ideas, and applying industry best practices to keep our platform cutting-edge and our teams empowered.

What You’ll Be Doing 🗃️

  • Build new and manage existing Azure services and resources with a focus on performance, security, scalability and resiliency in mind.
  • Proactively support Platform services and tooling (TeamCity, Octopus, Azure DevOps & more).
  • Create and manage cloud infrastructure with Terraform.
  • Advise internal teams on infrastructure best practices (HA), container orchestration, monitoring and cloud security.
  • Help evolve our CI/CD processes to include code quality testing, security scanning, load testing and infrastructure validations. 

Our Values & Culture 🌞

  • Just Pilot: We never settle for “good enough”. We pilot new ideas fast, ask questions to figure it out, and scale quickly.
  • Why Not Today? Fast is as slow as we go - speed and simplicity gives us a competitive advantage.
  • Be a Buddy: We tap in from day one to help the team, we do the right thing even if it’s hard.
  • Owners and Dates: We don’t chase people. If you own a task and agree to a date, the expectation is that it gets done.
  • Feedback: We want our employees to flourish, so we regularly provide direct and constructive feedback.

We’re Looking For 🔎

  • 3+ years in Cloud/DevOps roles with experience in either Azure, AWS, or GCP.
  • Experience in at least one scripting language (Python, PowerShell, Go)
  • Skilled in CI/CD tools (GitHub, Azure DevOps), containerisation, and Kubernetes orchestration.
  • Experienced in building and maintaining Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and developer productivity tooling.
  • Familiar with observability, alerting, and incident management (DataDog, Grafana) and collaborative, agile team environments.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to mentor others and influence cross-team engineering culture.

Even if you don’t have all of the necessary skills, we still encourage you to apply.
