DevOps Engineer

Oxford (Hybrid)

What if your infrastructure work directly powered technology that most engineers only read about?

We’re partnering with a highly innovative, well-funded deep tech organisation based in Oxford that’s building some of the most advanced systems in the world today.

As they scale, they’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to help shape and evolve the platform behind it all.

This isn’t your typical DevOps role. You’ll be working across a mix of cloud-connected and fully isolated environments, tackling unique challenges around deployment, observability, and infrastructure at scale. You’ll play a key role in designing how complex systems are commissioned, deployed, and maintained in both standard and highly controlled environments.

What you’ll be doing

• Building and automating infrastructure using modern IaC tools
• Developing and improving CI/CD pipelines (self-hosted environments)
• Designing observability across distributed systems
• Supporting deployments across both connected and air-gapped environments
• Contributing to the evolution of a hybrid cloud/on-prem platform

What we’re looking for

• Strong DevOps / SRE background in complex environments
• Linux expertise (Ubuntu preferred)
• Experience with Terraform, Ansible or similar
• Solid scripting skills (Python, Bash, etc.)

Bonus points if you’ve worked with:

• Kubernetes or other orchestration tools
• Observability stacks (Grafana, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
• Secure or isolated infrastructure environment.

Why this role?

You’ll be joining a small but growing team where your work has real impact on cutting-edge technology. It’s an opportunity to solve problems that don’t exist in typical cloud environments and to collaborate with a multidisciplinary team pushing boundaries every day.
