Site Reliability Engineer

Your new company and role

A leading public sector organisation is undergoing a major shift from on-premise systems to cloud-based services. As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), you'll join a collaborative, agile team focused on enhancing platform resilience, automation, and observability.

You'll work across a modern tech stack, including RHEL, Ansible, Oracle, AWS, and container platforms like OpenShift and Kubernetes, playing a key role in ensuring service continuity and disaster recovery readiness.

What you'll need to succeed

To thrive in this role, you'll bring:

• Strong Unix/Linux expertise, particularly with RHEL 7/8/9 and Red Hat Satellite.
• Automation skills, including Ansible, Shell Scripting (Bash/Perl), and infrastructure-as-code principles.
• Containerisation experience, with Docker and Kubernetes/OpenShift.
• CI/CD knowledge, including pipeline configuration and Git-based workflows.
• Monitoring and observability tools, such as Prometheus, Grafana, InfluxDB, and Nagios.
• Cloud proficiency, especially with AWS services (EC2, S3, VPC, NLB) and automation tools like Terraform or CDK.
• Desirable skills include experience with MongoDB, Python, CommVault, Oracle virtualisation (KVM/LVM), and AWS EKS.
