Cloud DevOps Engineer 50,000- 70,000 Are you a Cloud & DevOps Engineer who really enjoys working with Kubernetes and modern cloud platforms, not just maintaining them, but actually improving how things are built and delivered? If so, this could be right up your street. I'm working with a well-established UK business that's going through a major cloud and platform transformation. They're heavily investing in their tech function and building out a modern, Azure-first environment that underpins everything from customer applications to internal systems. It's one of those roles where there's genuinely a lot going on, in a good way. They're moving away from legacy infrastructure, modernising their cloud estate, improving observability, and continuing to build out their platform engineering capability. So if you enjoy being part of real change rather than just keeping the lights on, you'll like this. What will you be doing? You'll play a key role in building and evolving their cloud platform. Day to day, that could mean improving Azure infrastructure, working hands-on with Kubernetes (AKS), and helping shape their Infrastructure as Code approach. There's also a big focus on refining CI/CD pipelines and making deployments smoother and safer for engineering teams. A big part of the role is collaboration too, you'll be working closely with Dev, QA and Product, helping teams release software reliably while also pushing forward things like monitoring, observability and overall platform resilience. Tech-wise? It's an Azure-first setup, but they're open to people who've worked across AWS or GCP too. What matters most is that you've got solid, hands-on experience with Kubernetes, that's a real priority for the hiring manager. They're not looking for someone who's just brushed past it; they want someone who's genuinely worked with it in depth. Alongside that, experience with things like Docker, Terraform (or similar IaC tools), CI/CD pipelines, and cloud networking will all come into play. If you've had exposure to things like Helm, service mesh (Istio), Kubernetes networking, or cluster optimisation, that's a big plus, but not a deal breaker. What are they like? Culturally, they're a really collaborative, low-ego environment. They're looking for someone who communicates well, takes ownership, and enjoys helping others improve. It's the kind of place where you can share ideas, influence direction, and keep learning without a load of red tape getting in the way. What's in it for you? You'll get a hybrid working setup, annual bonus, proper support for learning and certifications, and the chance to work with modern tooling that the business is actively investing in. There's also a strong long-term roadmap of projects, so you're not walking into something that's going to stall , this is ongoing, evolving work where you can make a real impact. If you're someone who enjoys platform engineering, likes getting stuck into Kubernetes, and wants to be part of a genuine cloud transformation, this is a great opportunity to do just that.
