Senior Site Reliability Engineer
Helping teams ship faster, safer, and with less friction.
This one's for the engineer who's seen platforms creak under pressure — and knows what good looks like when it comes to resilience, automation, and developer enablement.
You'll play a key role in shaping how a modern engineering org builds, deploys, and runs its systems. Less firefighting, more forward planning. Less repetition, more enablement.
What you'll be doing
* Designing and supporting scalable, secure cloud-native infrastructure (Azure, Terraform, AKS).
* Embedding SLOs, observability, and incident response as real practice — not just theory.
* Evolving CI/CD pipelines with GitOps, shift-left security, and smart delivery strategies.
* Building internal tooling, reusable modules, and platforms that empower developers.
* Driving smarter cloud usage through cost monitoring and optimisation.
* Owning the platform lifecycle — from proactive maintenance to incident retrospectives.
What you bring
* Real-world experience with cloud platforms — particularly Azure and Kubernetes-based workloads.
* Strong IaC mindset (Terraform) and scripting comfort (Bash, PowerShell).
* Knowledge of platform security, network fundamentals, and identity/access best practices.
* Familiarity with observability tooling and performance monitoring.
* Hands-on with GitOps tooling, autoscaling strategies, and DevSecOps workflows.
* A product mindset — you know internal platforms deserve just as much care as external ones.
Why this role?
It's a chance to get stuck into meaningful platform work, not just keep the lights on. You'll help shape how a growing engineering org thinks about reliability, speed, and safety — and leave your mark on the systems and tooling that power real product
You'll also get:
* £70–80k base + strong benefits package
* Remote, with occasional travel to Manchester
* Personal dev budget and health cover from day one
Interested?
* We're not expecting you to tick every single box. If you've done real SRE or platform work and want to shape the future of engineering at scale — we should talk.
