We’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to work across our stack and keep the infrastructure that supports our engineering team, our product, and modern finance teams running smoothly.

This is a hands-on technical role. You’ll shape technical direction, influence architectural decisions, own the DevOps roadmap, and take responsibility for technical compliance against ISO27001 and SOC2.

You’ll report to the Head of Engineering.

• Strong sense of ownership and technical direction.

• Solid understanding of CI patterns and containerisation.
