Role Brief:

We are seeking an experienced and forward-thinking Dev Ops to own the infrastructure, security, and continuous delivery pipelines that form the backbone of our projects. This is a critical, hands-on role where you will be responsible for building and maintaining a resilient, secure, and highly automated environment across our AWS cloud platform. 
You will be the designated expert for all things related to infrastructure and DevOps. Your deep understanding of cloud architecture, security principles, and CI/CD will ensure our engineering teams can build and release software quickly, safely, and efficiently. If you are passionate about automation and leveraging AI to create intelligent, self-healing systems, we want to hear from you.

Responsibilities:

Cloud Infrastructure & Automation: 
  • Architect, build, and manage scalable and secure infrastructure on AWS and GCP using Infrastructure-as-Code principles. 
  • Develop and maintain bespoke automation scripts to accelerate project setup, on-demand environment creation, and other operational tasks. 
  • Champion and implement solutions to streamline local development and testing workflows for engineers. 
  • Provide expert guidance on systems architecture, ensuring our infrastructure is designed for performance, scalability, and resilience. 
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to manage and automate the infrastructure for our core services, including APIs and databases, ensuring their performance and reliability. 
CI/CD & Release Management: 
  • Take full ownership of our CI/CD pipelines using Bitbucket Pipelines / Github Actions, from code commit to production deployment. 
  • Integrate and manage automated testing, dependency updates, and security scans within the pipelines to ensure code quality and security. 
  • Define and continuously improve our release processes, ensuring smooth and predictable deployments. 
Security & Compliance: 
  • Act as the subject matter expert for security, compliance, and data flows within our cloud infrastructure. 
  • Implement and manage security best practices and automated tooling (SAST/DAST, dependency scanning) to protect our applications and data. 
  • Ensure all infrastructure and processes adhere to legal and regulatory requirements, maintaining customer trust and data privacy. 
Observability & Incident Management: 
  • Implement and manage a robust observability strategy using tools like Sentry, and native cloud services. 
  • Configure critical alerting and monitoring (e.g., AWS CloudWatch Alarms) and integrate them with notification services to ensure rapid response. 


Requirements:
  • Proven experience in a DevOps, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering role with a focus on automation. 
  • Proficiency in managing cloud infrastructure on AWS and/or GCP. 
  • Hands-on experience with Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform / Pulumi. 
  • Expert-level knowledge of building and managing complex CI/CD pipelines. 
  • Strong understanding of system architecture, security best practices, and compliance standards. 
  • Comfortable with scripting languages (e.g., PHP/JavaScript, Bash) to build automation and tooling. 
  • Experience with the operational lifecycle of APIs and databases from an infrastructure perspective. 
  • Experience with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) is a plus. 
  • Hands-on experience with modern observability and error tracking tools such as Sentry, Prometheus, or Grafana. 
  • Ideally experience in creating local development experience tools and processes using tools like LocalStack or Serverless
  • You have a deep technical curiosity and a passion for automation. 
  • You take complete ownership of your domain and are a reliable partner to the engineering teams you support. 
  • You are a strategic thinker who can balance speed and safety, enabling developers to move fast without compromising on security or stability. 
  • You are a strong communicator who can explain complex technical concepts to a variety of audiences.
  • You are proactive in identifying potential issues, reducing technical debt, and improving the overall development lifecycle.
  • You have the capability to work independently and of your own initiative based on loose requirements. You enjoy problem solving and creating novel solutions to complex challenges.


What are the benefits of working at SPECTRUM.LIFE?
  • Full time permanent contract
  • Competitive salary (Dependent on experience).
  • In-office, remote or hybrid working options
  • 25 days annual leave
  • 24/7 EAP and a wide range of health and wellbeing supports
  • Extensive list of employee perks and benefits
