£700 per day | 3-Month Contract (Likely to Extend) | Onsite – Oxford Based
Are you a Platform/Linux/DevOps expert who thrives on complex challenges?
Do you love working at the intersection of science, technology, and hardware innovation?
Ready to join a high-growth, cutting-edge tech environment where your impact is immediate?
Our client, a scaling technology business with ambitious plans, is on the lookout for seasoned Senior Linux Platform Engineers to play a pivotal role in their DevOps transformation.
This is your chance to join a project that blends scientific complexity with technological excellence, perfect for DevOps professionals who enjoy solving sophisticated problems, influencing infrastructure decisions, and working hands-on with the latest in modern tooling.
Why This Role is Great
- Shape the Future of Infrastructure: Drive the migration from Linux-based systems to cloud-native environments in a way that blends reliability, scalability, and performance.
- Cloud without Boundaries: Work in a cloud-agnostic setup (primarily AWS and GCP), offering broad exposure to both platforms-no rigid vendor lock-in.
- Hands-On with Leading Tech: Tackle real-world challenges using Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Ansible in an agile and forward-thinking team.
- Be Where Science Meets Tech: Collaborate with specialists across engineering and data science, contributing to projects that operate at the edge of hardware innovation.
- Ownership from Day One: Hit the ground running and take immediate ownership of complex problems in a fast-paced, supportive environment.
About You
You’ll bring a solid foundation in Linux systems and have proven experience guiding businesses through cloud transformations. You may have previously worked in scientific, hardware, or deep-tech environments and have a natural ability to unravel technical complexity and make smart, scalable decisions.
You’ll also enjoy working onsite-immersed with the team, collaborating closely, and shaping solutions in real time.
You may have worked with or be eager to deepen your experience with:
- Public cloud platforms – AWS, GCP, or both
- Infrastructure-as-Code – Terraform, Ansible
- Monitoring tools – Grafana, Datadog, Prometheus, etc.
- Python – for development, scripting and automation
- Solving complex technical challenges in environments where hardware and software intersect
- Working in highly collaborative, cross-functional teams
If you don't tick every box but bring similar experience and the ability to adapt quickly, we strongly encourage you to apply.
The Offer
- Initial 3-month contract with strong likelihood of extension
- Onsite role (majority of the week)
- Start ASAP
We are committed to building inclusive teams.
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Our client values diversity and believes a broad range of ideas and experiences makes for better outcomes.
