Job Description
Lead DevOps Engineer
We’re partnering with a high-growth, mission-driven technology startup that’s building a complex, data-heavy platform already used at serious scale. The product is live, growing fast, and now hitting the point where infrastructure, reliability, and developer experience really matter.
They’re looking for a Lead DevOps Engineer to take ownership of how software is built, deployed, and operated — working directly with the CTO and engineering leadership.
This is a true hands-on leadership role: not managing tickets, but designing the platform, setting standards, and removing friction so engineers can move fast without breaking things.
What you’ll be doing
Owning cloud infrastructure and deployment strategy end-to-end Building modern Infrastructure as Code and moving toward fully automated environments Designing containerised deployments and scalable release workflows Creating fast, reliable CI/CD pipelines with proper testing and rollback Solving real-world problems around large datasets, migrations, and environment parity Making local development and onboarding genuinely easy for engineers
What they’re looking for
Strong DevOps / platform engineering background (AWS-heavy) Someone who enjoys designing systems, not just maintaining them Experience improving reliability, automation, and developer productivity Comfortable working in fast-moving startup environments Able to balance pragmatism with long-term technical quality
Why this is interesting
Real ownership — you define how the platform runs Direct access to decision-makers, no layers of management Meaningful scale and complexity (not toy infrastructure) A team that values engineering quality and autonomy Clear opportunity to grow into a broader technical leadership role
If you enjoy building the foundations, taking responsibility, and leaving things better than you found them, this is a genuinely exciting opportunity.
