Someone who relishes a challenge, and would love to be the first DevOps Engineer in a start-up with a difference? If this sounds like you, read on- this is what you’ve been waiting for I am recruiting for an excellent start-up company in Sheffield. They aren’t your risky kind of start-up though: they are the brainchild of a very well-established business, so come with all the security, know-how, and business contacts to know they’ll do well, so it’s a win-win This organization is still in its infancy: they now have a few developers, data scientists/engineers, heads of departments, but no DevOps team…yet. You will be their first DevOps hire, so it’s a really important role for them to fill with the right person. You’ll have a few years of DevOps experience under your belt, using tech like Azure, Azure DevOps, PowerShell, Python, Bash, Kubernetes, Bicep/Terraform, etc. and you understand how DevOps fits into a tech department. You’ll be adept at making sure that the technical estate is set up for success: that everything that can be automated is automated, that alerts, logging, monitoring, CI/CD pipelines are set up, etc. you want to enable the team to do their best work, and you just love building robust, enterprise-level systems to ensure they achieve it As you can imagine, you’ll have a lot of say in the technical direction of your domain and will get to make key tech decisions and implementations, all the while, being supported by the VP of Engineering. Career progression is baked into this role, and all roles at the company at this stage, as you’ll be joining them on essentially the ground floor. As the company grows, so will your position within it. I don’t like to use platitudes like ‘exciting’ or ‘dynamic’ in my adverts as a general rule, as they’ve lost their meaning through overuse, but I can confidently say that this role is a genuinely exciting one- it’s got everything an enthusiastic and talented DevOps Engineer could want in a role If this sounds right up your street, apply now or get in touch to find out more about your new role.
