The Opportunity
We are looking for an experienced Infrastructure DevOps Engineer to join a specialist engineering team supporting a highly secure, enterprise-scale private cloud environment.
This is an initial 5 month contract role but comes with a high probability of long term extensions.
This is a hands-on infrastructure-focused DevOps position, rather than a software development role, where you'll develop and enhance automation capabilities, improve deployment processes and support the ongoing delivery of business-critical hosting services.
The Role
Working alongside infrastructure and engineering specialists, you'll take responsibility for improving infrastructure automation, maintaining CI/CD pipelines and supporting secure cloud hosting platforms.
Key responsibilities include:
- Manage and enhance existing GitLab CI/CD pipelines.
- Develop and improve Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, Ansible and scripting technologies.
- Automate infrastructure deployments and ongoing operational tasks.
- Work with VMware Aria Automation and Aria Orchestrator to improve infrastructure provisioning.
- Support Linux and Windows infrastructure, including Active Directory.
- Contribute to infrastructure security, system hardening and vulnerability management.
- Maintain technical documentation and support continuous service improvements.
The Person
We're looking for an experienced Infrastructure DevOps Engineer with strong infrastructure automation skills and experience supporting complex production environments.
Essential experience:
- Strong infrastructure-focused DevOps and automation experience.
- GitLab CI/CD, Terraform, Ansible and scripting, ideally PowerShell.
- VMware infrastructure and automation technologies, particularly Aria Automation and Orchestrator.
- Linux (ideally Ubuntu), Windows Server and Active Directory.
- Infrastructure as Code, GitOps and automated deployments.
- Understanding of infrastructure security, hardening and ITIL change management.
- SC security clearance.
Desirable experience:
- Defence, government or highly secure environments.
- Air-gapped infrastructure, VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), Packer and Nessus.
- Current DV clearance.
Opportunity
An excellent opportunity to work on complex infrastructure automation within a highly secure and technically challenging environment.
