Xpertise's client are a large complex enterprise currently undergoing a major Technology and SRE transformation and building a brand new SRE function from the ground up. They're looking for an experienced SRE who can help shape what "good" looks like across multiple high-impact platforms - from web and mobile to payments, CRM, and Cloud Infrastructure.

The position will work on AWS-first infrastructure, modernizing legacy systems and embedding observability, automation, and CI/CD practices.

It also requires someone who has experience with containerization (Kubernetes or Docker) and monitoring tools (Datadog, Splunk, etc.).

This is an opportunity to shape and lead a greenfield SRE capability within a large-scale digital environment. No on-call work, plenty of technical variety, and real influence in how the organisation adopts modern engineering practices.

What you will do:

  • Drive SRE adoption across product teams
  • Work on AWS-first infra with IaC + CI/CD
  • Improve reliability, availability + performance
  • Build observability + automation
  • Help define SLOs/SLIs and mentor engineers

What we are looking for:

  • 5 years SRE / reliability engineering as a Senior or Lead
  • AWS, Terraform, CI/CD
  • Strong SRE fundamentals (monitoring, incident, automation)
  • Docker/K8s + tools like Datadog/Splunk
  • Someone who can influence, not just build
