I'm currently working with one of the UK's leading fintech organizations, to recruit an experienced Cloud Operations Engineer to join their growing Cloud Operations team.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys operating, supporting, and improving cloud environments rather than building cloud platforms from scratch.
Please note: This is not a Platform Engineering or pure DevOps role.
About the Role
You'll be responsible for the day-to-day operation, stability, security, and performance of AWS or Azure hosted production environments, working closely with Development, Infrastructure, and Security teams to ensure business-critical services remain available and resilient.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
