This is an exciting opportunity for a Senior DevOps Engineer who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges, driving automation and building secure, scalable platforms across cloud and operational technology environments.
 
About the Role
You'll play a key role in designing, automating and supporting cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes platforms and engineering services across AWS and isolated operational technology environments. Working with technologies including Amazon EKS, Red Hat OpenShift, Terraform, Argo CD and GitHub Actions, you'll help deliver secure, repeatable and observable engineering capabilities while improving developer productivity, deployment confidence and system quality.
 
Key Responsibilities

• Design, build and manage Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure across Amazon EKS and Red Hat OpenShift.
• Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code and configuration automation using Terraform and complementary tools.
• Build and operate GitOps delivery patterns using Argo CD, ApplicationSets and Helm across cloud and operational technology environments.
• Design reusable GitHub Actions, CI/CD workflows and engineering patterns for build, testing, security scanning, packaging and deployment.
• Deliver deployment tooling, traceability, rollback capabilities and readiness controls to support safe software releases.
• Engineer observability solutions including metrics, logging, tracing, dashboards and alerting while improving system performance, resilience and recoverability.
• Implement secure secrets management, machine identities, artefact repositories and software supply chain security practices.
• Troubleshoot complex issues across cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, networking, identity and shared services.
• Produce maintainable engineering solutions through code reviews, automated testing, documentation and technical standards.
• Mentor engineers, lead technical workstreams and collaborate with engineering, architecture, cyber security and business stakeholders.
• Apply AI-assisted engineering tools throughout the software development lifecycle while maintaining security, quality and accountability.
