AWS DevOps Engineer
London (Hybrid – typically 1 day per week in the office)
Salary: Up to £80,000
We're partnering with a growing technology-led business operating a large-scale cloud platform and looking to add a hands-on DevOps Engineer to their engineering team.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys solving problems, building solutions from scratch, and taking ownership of cloud infrastructure rather than simply maintaining existing environments. You'll work as part of cross-functional product teams, helping to improve platform reliability, scalability, security, and developer efficiency across a predominantly AWS estate.
The team values curiosity, initiative, and continuous improvement. They're looking for someone who enjoys learning, challenges the status quo, and takes pride in delivering meaningful engineering outcomes.
The Role
You'll work closely with software engineers, QA engineers, and data teams to design, build, and optimise infrastructure that supports business-critical applications and data platforms.

- Good understanding of networking concepts including VPCs, routing, and autoscaling
- Experience with monitoring and observability tools such as CloudWatch, Datadog, or similar
