DevOps Engineer
As a Staff DevOps Engineer, you’ll bring an automation-first mindset to a fast-growing healthtech scale-up that’s rapidly adding customers and stretching the current infrastructure. This role exists to push the platform towards true SRE-level reliability, scalability and performance at a time when demand, complexity and expectations are all rising fast.
You’ll join a small DevOps team in London, work closely with product engineers, and be given a long runway of meaningful problems to own, from tightening observability to eliminating toil. This is not a maintenance role; it’s a hands-on engineering position where your decisions directly affect clinicians and patients relying on the product in regulated healthcare environments.
What You'll Do
- As a Staff DevOps Engineer, you will lead the evolution of the DevOps function towards SRE, owning scale, performance and reliability as usage grows.
- You will design, build and maintain automated infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code on AWS, and help guide cross-training where needed.
- You will build and refine CI/CD pipelines so product engineers can ship frequently and safely into production.
- You will level up monitoring and observability, adding metrics, dashboards and alerts to spot slow endpoints, backed-up queues and emerging issues early.
- You will be deeply involved in incident management and the 24/7 on-call rota, from triage and diagnosis through to lasting fixes and improved runbooks.
- You will work through a backlog of scalability, performance and reliability improvements, constantly finding opportunities to remove toil through automation.
- You will collaborate with engineering and compliance stakeholders to keep the platform aligned with healthcare and security standards without slowing teams down.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You'll Bring
- As a Staff DevOps Engineer, you have solid experience in DevOps, SRE or software engineering roles where you’ve owned production systems at scale and delivered mid-to-senior-level impact.
- You have proficiency in at least one scripting language such as Bash or Python, and a clear automation-first mentality rather than relying on cloud consoles.
- You have strong experience with AWS or another major cloud and hands-on Infrastructure as Code experience, for example Terraform, with a willingness to cross-train quickly.
- You have a track record of building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and working with containers such as Docker in production environments.
- You have experience improving monitoring, observability, performance and reliability, and participating in on-call rotations or incident response processes.
- You have clear, articulate communication and the ability to collaborate effectively with product and engineering teams in an ambiguous, fast-moving scale-up environment where you are proactive and responsible.
What's On Offer
- Salary in the region of £100,000–£120,000, depending on experience.
- On-site role (4 days a week onsite) in a central London office, working closely with product, engineering and leadership.
- The chance to shape the SRE direction of a rapidly scaling healthtech platform, with a substantial, high-impact reliability and performance backlog ready for you to own.
- Direct access to founders and engineering leadership who involve engineers in key technical decisions.
- A culture that rewards autonomy, curiosity and continuous improvement rather than rigid processes.
- Benefits package, details on application.
