DevOps Engineer

We are recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing fintech product company who are building secure, reliable platforms used in real-world financial services.

As their engineering organisation continues to scale, they are looking to add a hands-on DevOps Engineer who enjoys executing, automating, and continuously improving how software is delivered.

This is not a platform architect or strategy-only role. It is a practical opportunity for someone with 3–5 years’ experience who can confidently execute within established platform frameworks and make measurable improvements day to day.

The role

Joining a lean, capable DevOps function, you’ll focus on delivery excellence and automation rather than reinvention:

Designing and building CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions (hands-on pipeline construction required)
Improving build, release, and deployment workflows across a hybrid cloud and on-prem environment
Managing Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and Ansible
Supporting containerised services using Docker and Docker Compose
Reducing manual steps and embedding quality and security into pipelines
Working closely with product engineering teams to enable faster, safer releases
Maintaining documentation, troubleshooting issues, and refining existing tooling

This is a role for someone who enjoys getting things done and leaving systems in better shape than they found them.

Tech stack & environment

Core experience required:

GitHub Actions (designing and building pipelines)
Docker & Docker Compose
Terraform and Ansible
Hybrid cloud + on-prem infrastructure experience

Areas they can flex on:

Software engineering depth or statically typed languages
Tooling such as Vault, Cloudflare, or Cloudsmith
Supporting polyglot engineering teams

Kubernetes is intentionally out of scope for this role.

Your background

3–5 years’ experience in DevOps, CI/CD, or automation roles
Background in a product-led engineering organisation
Strong execution mindset — comfortable working within established platforms
Hands-on pipeline, infrastructure, and operational experience
Exposure to hybrid environments (not cloud-only)
Clear communication and a pragmatic, delivery-focused approach

This role will not be suitable if your background is primarily:

Kubernetes-centric or platform-architecture-focused
Pure cloud-only with no on-prem experience
Consulting-only without product company experience
Azure DevOps or Octopus Deploy as your main CI/CD tooling

Why this opportunity?

Fully remote role (UK-based)
Join a scaling fintech with a strong product mindset
Work in a trusted engineering culture with real autonomy
Competitive salary up to £55,000 plus 4% bonus
A chance to directly influence how software is delivered at scale

If you are a hands-on DevOps engineer who enjoys execution, automation, and improving delivery within an established platform, this is a strong opportunity to make impact with a growing fintech client.
