Senior DevOps Engineer
Newcastle (Hybrid)
Up to £85,000 + Bonus + Benefits
Method Resourcing are partnering with an established organisation undergoing a significant cloud transformation and are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to play a key role in shaping the next generation of its cloud platform.
This isn't a support-focused DevOps position. It's an opportunity to influence cloud architecture, improve engineering standards and help build scalable, automated infrastructure that supports business-critical digital services used across the UK.
You would be joining a highly skilled engineering team responsible for designing, building and continuously improving cloud infrastructure and DevOps capabilities.
Your work will include:
- Designing and evolving cloud-native infrastructure
- Building and improving Infrastructure as Code solutions
- Driving automation across deployment pipelines and operational processes
- Improving platform reliability, resilience and observability
- Implementing monitoring, alerting and operational best practice
- Contributing to cloud strategy and technical roadmaps
- Working closely with engineering teams to improve delivery and platform performance
- Mentoring engineers and helping raise technical standards across the team
This role offers genuine influence over technical direction rather than simply maintaining existing environments.
Candidate Skills/Experience:
- Public cloud platforms (Azure preferred)
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep or similar)
- CI/CD pipeline design and optimisation
- Scripting and automation (PowerShell, Bash or Python)
- Containers and cloud-native technologies
- Monitoring and observability tooling
- DevOps engineering best practices
- Secure, highly available cloud environments
Experience within regulated industries such as financial services, insurance or utilities would be beneficial but isn't essential.
Why this opportunity?
✔ Large-scale cloud transformation programme
✔ Opportunity to influence technical direction
✔ Modern DevOps tooling and automation-first mindset
✔ Hybrid working with excellent work-life balance
✔ Strong investment in learning, development and career progression
✔ Competitive salary, bonus and comprehensive benefits package
