As a key member of the team, you'll be responsible for deploying, managing, and assuring these systems at both a high and detailed level.

What You'll Bring:

• Strong understanding of Amazon Web Services (AWS) – including deployment, configuration, and management of cloud infrastructure (experience with Azure or GCP also beneficial).
• Solid grasp of DevOps concepts and hands-on experience with tools like Jenkins, Ansible, and cloud-native services.
• Familiarity with networking concepts including route tables, firewalls, DNS, and NAT.
• Knowledge of RESTful Web Services, XML, and JSON.
• Confident communication skills – both verbal and written.
• Experience working within Agile / SAFe environments.
• Strong skills in automation, especially in:
  • Build & deployment pipelines using BitBucket / Jenkins / GitLab / AWS CodeCommit.
  • Infrastructure automation using CloudFormation, AWS CDK, or similar (Terraform and Ansible are a bonus).
• Proficiency in at least one programming language such as JavaScript, TypeScript, or Java.
• Practical understanding of modern DevOps practices in a cloud environment.
• AWS or Azure certifications are a bonus but not mandatory.

What You'll Do:

• Collaborate with stakeholders to define cloud infrastructure solutions aligned with agile, automated, and cloud-first principles.
• Manage, maintain, and optimise AWS-based production systems, ensuring performance, security, and scalability.
• Configure, release, and monitor infrastructure using AWS native services.
• Implement and maintain logging, metrics, and monitoring tools.
• Troubleshoot system and application issues across cloud environments.
• Ensure systems undergo thorough testing and meet quality benchmarks before deployment.
• Enhance system security by applying cloud security best practices.
• Recommend improvements to processes, tools, and technology to drive better performance and cost efficiency.

About the Team:

• We work closely with customer delivery managers, project managers, technical leads, and ITIL-based service management teams.
• Our goal is to deliver outstanding cloud solutions and services that align with customer goals and business outcomes.
• The team supports ongoing automation and DevOps adoption, with a strong focus on operational excellence and continuous improvement.

Note: This role may be part of an on-call roster for incident response and resolution, depending on team needs.
