• Introduce security controls into infrastructure and pipelines, promoting strong engineering hygiene

• Work with architects, security teams, and developers to ensure designs meet performance and assurance needs
• Troubleshoot platform issues and contribute to continuous improvement across the engineering lifecycle
What you bring
• DV Clearance is essential due to the sensitivity of the programme
• Strong hands-on Kubernetes experience and comfort running production clusters
• Good understanding of secure infrastructure operations, cloud services, containerisation, and network fundamentals
• Proven experience with CI/CD tooling and automation workflows
• Ability to operate in Agile teams within complex, highly regulated settings
• A background in DevOps, Platform, or SRE roles
If you want to apply your Kubernetes, CI/CD, and security skills to work that carries genuine national importance, we would like to speak with you. Contact Ncounter to discuss the role and explore whether it aligns with your next move
