Site Reliability Engineer

Our Managed Services practice keeps critical applications healthy once they are live. As a Site Reliability Engineer you will own the reliability of client platforms: infrastructure, monitoring, incident response and the automation that reduces toil. You will work closely with the engineers who build the systems, so reliability is designed in from the start.

• Run and improve cloud infrastructure for client applications.
• Build monitoring, alerting and service level objectives that reflect what users experience.
• Lead incident response and write clear, blameless post-incident reviews.
• Automate deployment, scaling and routine operations.
• Improve security, cost and performance across the platforms we manage.
• Take part in a fair, well-supported on-call rota.

• Substantial experience running production systems on a major cloud platform.
• Strong skills in infrastructure as code, such as Terraform.
• Experience with containers, CI/CD and observability tooling.
• Scripting or programming ability in at least one language.
• Calm, methodical judgement during incidents.

• Experience supporting systems in health, retail or logistics.
• Experience with Kubernetes.
• Experience improving cloud cost and efficiency.
