Site Reliability Engineer

Site Reliability Engineer / SRE / DevOps / AWS / IaC / Manchester / Permanent / Remote / £50,000 - £60,000pa

Vivo Talent is proud to be partnering with a market-leading software organisation to recruit a talented Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join their growing team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to play a pivotal role in designing and maintaining reliable, scalable infrastructure that keeps the business running smoothly and enables innovation at scale. As the SRE, you'll take ownership of ensuring systems remain stable, efficient, and secure - while also having the chance to mentor junior team members and help shape the foundations of a growing engineering function.

If you're passionate about problem-solving, automation and building infrastructure that truly makes an impact, this could be the perfect next step for you.

What You'll Be Doing

• Maintain & Improve Systems: Keep production environments running smoothly with proactive maintenance, patching and performance tuning.
• Automate & Optimise: Use tools like Terraform, Ansible and AWS to manage infrastructure and enhance automation.
• Collaborate & Support: Work hand-in-hand with cross-functional teams and help develop the junior SRE through mentoring and knowledge sharing.
• Monitor & Troubleshoot: Strengthen monitoring systems (moving from Nagios to Datadog) and take ownership of incident management.

What You'll Bring

• Solid experience in SRE or DevOps roles within cloud environments (AWS preferred).
• Confidence with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management tools.
• A proactive, problem-solving mindset and an interest in mentoring others.
• Strong communication skills - you'll liaise with developers, data scientists, and non-technical stakeholders alike.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an SRE who loves to take ownership, refine systems and make a tangible impact in their role
