Senior DevOps Engineer
Remote First | Occasional Meet-Ups in Bristol or London | Up to £100,000
Are you a DevOps Engineer who is already embracing AI as part of your daily workflow? We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to help shape and scale a modern, API-first platform operating within a highly regulated environment. This is an opportunity to have genuine influence over cloud architecture, engineering standards, automation strategy and platform reliability, whilst working on critical financial technology infrastructure.
What makes this role different is the organisation's commitment to AI-assisted engineering. AI isn't an experiment here; it's embedded into the way teams build, automate, troubleshoot and deliver software. We're looking for someone excited by that future and keen to push the boundaries of what's possible.
The Opportunity
You'll play a key role in evolving a cloud-native platform, helping to build secure, scalable and highly resilient infrastructure while driving automation across the engineering function. Working closely with software engineers and technical leadership, you'll champion DevOps best practices and help create an environment where development teams can move faster, safer and more efficiently.
You'll be responsible for:
- Owning and evolving cloud infrastructure across production and non-production environments
- Designing and implementing Infrastructure as Code standards
- Building and optimising CI/CD pipelines
- Improving platform reliability, observability and operational excellence
- Driving automation and DevOps best practices across engineering teams
- Leading incident response, root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives
- Implementing monitoring, logging and alerting solutions
- Ensuring cloud infrastructure meets security, governance and compliance requirements
- Supporting high-availability, disaster recovery and business continuity initiatives
- Integrating AI tooling into engineering workflows as a natural part of day-to-day delivery
- Mentoring and supporting engineers on cloud and platform engineering best practices
