Role summary
Are you an experienced DevOps Engineer/Site Reliability Engineer looking to further your career? Or, are you an Infrastructure Administrator looking to make a move into DevOps?
We are looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our Digital and Transformation team in creating new products for our newly formed council.
As a DevOps Engineer you will work closely with other teams in the service (in particular the infrastructure teams) to ensure software products are configured and deployed on time, within budget, and to the agreed quality.
The core focus of this job is to drive the delivery of software products to the organisation by designing and building automations and configurations that meet required specifications and standards. Ensure deployment strategies for products are repeatable, scalable and reliable.
DevOps is way of working that isn’t just isolated to a single role, and as part of this role you will help develop and mature this practice by guiding and advising members of the Development and Infrastructure teams in DevOps practices to ensure close collaboration in development projects.
You will work closely with the Development Team Manager and the Digital Products and Services Team, customers, colleagues within Technology & Change, Business Partners and other strategic business areas and working groups. You will liaise closely with the Development Team Manager giving updated information on allocated work, as well as raising any issues, risks or concerns which may affect the timely delivery of projects.
