DevOps Engineer (Mid-Level) – £50,000–£75,000 | Remote (UK)
Are you a developer who's transitioned into DevOps and enjoys making engineering teams work better? We're looking for a mid-level DevOps Engineer to join a forward‐thinking fintech company and help shape the developer experience from the ground up.
The Role
You'll work closely with our Staff Engineer to execute on a broad and exciting DevOps roadmap. This is a hands‐on, high‐impact role where you'll see the results of your efforts directly improve how the engineering team operates day to day.
There's potential to form a small platform team alongside the Staff Engineer, with real ownership over infrastructure and developer tooling.
What You'll Be Working On
* CI/CD pipeline optimisation: reviewing, monitoring, and improving GitHub Actions pipeline performance and reliability
* GitHub Actions cost reduction: identifying and eliminating wasteful pipeline runs
* Infrastructure management: working within a fully Terraform‐based AWS serverless environment
* Cost optimisation: reducing AWS infrastructure spend across Lambda, ALBs, and SQS
* Security services: building and improving infrastructure services to meet security requirements
* Monitoring & observability: building out Grafana dashboards, refining Sentry alerting, and improving visibility across infrastructure
* Vercel account consolidation: migrating from two Vercel accounts into one
* Preview environments: maintaining and improving per‐PR Lambda environments with automatic teardown
* Developer experience: making it faster and easier for engineers to ship code
* AI integration: exploring how AI can enhance monitoring, scaling, and observability, with the potential to help build a self‐hosted AI solution for internal use with customer data
What We're Looking For
* Background as a developer who has moved into DevOps
* TypeScript
* Solid AWS experience, particularly with serverless architectures (Lambda, ALBs, SQS)
* Strong Terraform experience
* Hands‐on experience with GitHub Actions
* Experience with Grafana and Sentry is a plus
* Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate closely within a small, remote engineering team
* Based in the UK
Why Join Us?
* Fully remote - work from anywhere in the UK
* Real ownership and impact - see the results of your work immediately
* Collaborate directly with a highly skilled Staff Engineer and CTO
* Flexibility to grow - whether deeper into DevOps or towards software engineering
* Plenty of scope to try new things, including exploring AI tooling across the business
Salary & Benefits
* £50,000–£75,000 depending on experience
* 10% employer pension contribution (no employee contribution required)
* Fully remote working
