Platform / DevOps Engineer - Python, Jenkins/Groovy, CI/CD, Security - DevEx - Up to £600 a day (Inside IR35)

We’re partnering with a high-tech enterprise looking for DevX/DevEx talent to join their platform/DevOps team. You’ll own complex polyglot build infrastructure, modernise legacy automation, and strengthen software supply chain security.

This is a hands-on role focused on evolving a Jenkins Shared Library supporting multi-language builds. You’ll design fast, secure CI/CD pipelines and enforce strong artifact integrity (SLSA, SBOM, digests).

Key Responsibilities

• Design and maintain end-to-end Groovy pipelines (build, test, scan, deploy)
• Enhance Python tooling for SLSA, SBOM, and security scans (SonarQube, SAST, etc.)
• Optimise pipelines via parallelisation, caching, and dependency management
• Ensure cryptographic artifact integrity (SHA1/SHA256, reproducibility)
• Refactor legacy scripts and standardise templates

Requirements

• 6+ years in DevOps/platform/software engineering
• 3+ years in CI/CD or DevSecOps
• Strong Jenkins/Groovy (Shared Libraries preferred)
• Advanced Python scripting and automation
• Experience with YAML/JSON processing
• Knowledge of modern DevSecOps and supply chain security (SLSA, SBOM)
• Proven performance optimisation experience

This is a new team build so we will have multiple headcount available. If you want to be at the frontier edge of modern engineering platforms apply immediately!
