We’re looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our team at The Dock, where you’ll play a key in shaping scalable, secure, and high-performing engineering environments.
You’ll work across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, automation, and observability, helping teams deliver reliable, production-ready solutions. This is not a pure operations —you’ll contribute to engineering decisions, bringing a strong focus on reliability, repeatability, and pragmatic delivery.
You’ll collaborate closely with engineers, architects, data scientists, and product teams, owning key technical components such as cloud environments, networking layers, repositories, and developer tooling—ensuring alignment with best practices and internal standards.
This suits someone with a growth mindset, who actively explores new technologies, shares knowledge, and communicates effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
-
Design, build, and maintain secure, scalable CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitLab CI)
-
Develop and manage cloud-native infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code
-
Deploy and operate containerised workloads (Docker, Kubernetes)
-
Implement monitoring, logging, tracing, and health-check frameworks
-
Create reproducible environments to support consistency and engineering quality
-
Embed security across the lifecycle (DevSecOps) – secrets management, vulnerability scanning, dependency management
-
Manage network access and security across systems, including VPNs and firewalls, ensuring compliance with internal standards
-
Contribute to technical decision-making, clearly communicating trade-offs, risks, and improvements
-
Drive continuous improvement of development practices and code quality
-
Leverage AI tools to automate workflows, improve delivery, and support documentation
-
Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code
-
Hands-on experience working in DevOps within agile delivery environments
-
Strong understanding of cloud platforms (Azure preferred; AWS/GCP also relevant)
-
Experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Terraform, CloudFormation, Bicep/ARM)
-
Practical knowledge of containerisation and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, AKS/EKS/GKE)
-
Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automation
-
Solid understanding of networking, distributed systems, and secure API design
-
Familiarity with monitoring, alerting, and logging frameworks
-
Ability to script in Python, Bash, or PowerShell
-
Understanding of authentication and authorisation concepts
-
Experience identifying and resolving security vulnerabilities (CVE)
-
Comfortable contributing to planning, estimation, and sprint delivery
We welcome engineers from a variety of backgrounds who demonstrate impact, ownership, and continuous learning, rather than focusing on a fixed number of years of experience.
-
Experience leading workstreams or mentoring others
-
Relevant certifications (Azure, DevOps, Kubernetes)
-
Exposure to GenAI/LLM infrastructure (e.g. vector DBs, embeddings, orchestration)
-
Experience with secrets management (Vault, Azure Key Vault) and secure-by-design practices
-
Interest in system design, architecture, and modern software patterns
