We're looking for an Azure DevOps Engineer who enjoys hands-on technical work and is motivated to develop their cloud engineering capabilities.
You'll have practical experience working with Azure, CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code, alongside an understanding of Azure infrastructure and storage services.
You don't need to be an expert across every Azure service or have extensive architecture experience. We're looking for someone with solid technical foundations, a willingness to learn and the confidence to contribute to engineering delivery.
You'll be comfortable working independently on familiar tasks, seeking guidance when needed and collaborating with experienced engineers and architects to deliver secure, reliable cloud solutions.
This is an opportunity to build on your existing Azure and DevOps experience while gaining exposure to complex cloud environments, modern engineering practices and a broad range of client projects.
