About Acre
Acre is rebuilding the UK’s £1.4 trillion mortgage market from the ground up with a completely new, end‑to‑end management system for mortgages. Our platform eliminates unnecessary admin, pain, and friction from buying a home, covering the entire journey from eligibility to keys, guided by real home buyers and close relationships with brokers, lenders, and insurers.

- Experienced in containerisation, orchestration, and infrastructure‑as‑code using Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
- A strong advocate for information security principles, especially environment hardening and secure system design.
- Skilled in monitoring and logging for security, reliability, and performance.
- Well‑versed in CI/CD practices and modern software delivery pipelines.
- Proficient in at least one programming or scripting language for automation and tooling.
- Backed by 2+ years of relevant industry experience in DevOps, SRE, cloud infrastructure, or a related field.
