DevOps Engineer

Engineering and innovation go hand in hand. Without trying, failing, trying again and failing again, trying something new, failing a third time and this repetitive cycle, many of the things we take for granted wouldn’t exist. The thirst for knowledge and desire to play around and to just see if something different works better is at the heart of many of humanity’s technological discoveries.

New tools, different technologies, building for the future; adapting to the constantly changing world of Software engineering, Cloud engineering, Platform Engineering or SRE depending on what the latest buzzword is. 

Fundamental knowledge does matter here, Cloud, IAC, Containers, Kubernetes. These will be your bread and butter, that daily focus for 80% as you build out large scale infrastructure and platforms. However, there is A LOT of variety in that 20%, this is where that thirst for knowledge comes in. Each challenge will be different as each platform is being built to solve a different problem. You could be using specific security tooling to ensure that there are no breaches to sensitive information, perhaps something to ensure that the platform can scale quickly to a sudden increase in demand, even an AI integration. Tooling can change day to day as each challenge will require a different solution and approach, autonomy will see you trial things to solve that problem.

Building for the future is key, how can tools that don't exist yet be easily integrated to improve performance. A new language or way of doing things will be just around the corner in the constantly evolving world of technology and those who adapt quickest will reap the rewards. 

Here is the interesting part, time is given to you to learn. You can’t innovate, try things and fail without time, so this becomes part of the role. It is also supplemented with an unlimited budget. A course, certification, conference - you prove it makes you a better engineer and it’s paid for.

Collaboration is key to this company, working together on large scale problems - with that in mind and modern working practices there is flexibility. Monthly you would spend around 70% of your time remote, with the other 30% of your time onsite for key meetings, whiteboard sessions or training.
