The role
A hands on Senior DevOps Engineer to build, automate and run a cloud platform on Microsoft Azure and Azure Red Hat OpenShift (ARO). You will own how code moves from commit to production, and keep the platform stable, observable and secure once it gets there.
Responsibilities
- Administer and evolve Azure and ARO/OpenShift environments, including provisioning, upgrades, networking and access control
- Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines that give teams fast, repeatable and auditable routes to production
- Automate infrastructure through code across dev, test and production
- Troubleshoot Kubernetes and OpenShift workloads in depth, from pod level issues to ingress, storage, RBAC and cluster networking
- Own monitoring, logging and alerting so issues are caught before users report them
- Embed secure delivery practices: secrets management, image scanning, policy enforcement and least privilege
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
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.
