DWP. Digital with Purpose.

We are looking for a Lead DevOps Engineer to build and develop our DevOps culture and strategy, and guide a team of specialist engineers here at DWP Digital.

DWP is the UK's largest government department. We help people into work, and make payments worth over £195bn a year to support and empower millions of people.

You'll be a leading, expert voice digital community that is driving a once-in-a-generation transformation of public services.

We want you to drive development of our technical landscape and define what DevOps looks like in DWP Digital. You will lead teams to deliver real value to people that need help at key times in their lives.

The scale of what we do is extraordinary, and our purpose is unique. We'd love you to join us.

What skills, knowledge and experience will you need?

Experience of leading and supporting engineers in agile multi-disciplinary teams, following a DevOps strategy.
Experience of the full life cycle of cloud-based platforms and applications from design and deployment, to supporting and patching (in particular AWS and Azure).
Experience of version control systems as well as building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines e.g. git with GitLab CI or Jenkins.
Experience of Infrastructure-as-code and configuration of code for one or more cloud providers.
Experience of containerisation and container orchestration.
Experience of multiple scripting and/or programming languages (e.g. Bash, Python).

You and your role

As our Lead DevOps Engineer, you will work across multiple teams as an engineering specialist leading DWP's DevOps strategy.

You'll be our technical product owner, developing the strategy for product lines, defining and refining our engineering standards across our Digital Channels. You will ensure that security, stability and capacity are embedded in the development and deployment of services.

Your expert technical knowledge will enable you to provide leadership and guidance through coaching and mentoring, and increasing the capability of up to 20 DevOps engineers.

An important part of this role is your responsibility to develop your team's capability, helping to shape our community and recruit the right talent by identifying skills gaps and important dependencies within technical teams.

Details. Wages. Perks.

Location: You'll join us in one of our brilliant digital hubs in Birmingham, Blackpool, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle or Sheffield whichever is most convenient for you.

Hybrid Working: We work a hybrid model - you'll spend some time working at home and some time collaborating face to face in a hub.

Pay: We offer competitive pay of up to £89,995.

Pension: You'll get a brilliant civil service pension with employer contributions worth 28.97%, worth up to £22,500 per year.

Holidays: A generous leave package starting at 26 days rising to 31 days over time.

You can also take up to 3 extra days off a month on flexi-time. You'll also get all the usual public holidays.

We have a broad benefits package built around your work-life balance which includes:

An award-winning environment and culture: Employer of the Year 2023 (Women In IT Awards), Founders Award for Outstanding Digital Leadership 2023 (Digital 100)
Flexible working including flexible hours and flex-friendly policies
