We are looking for an experienced Principal DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to lead infrastructure reliability, cloud platform engineering, automation, and performance optimisation across large-scale production systems. The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in AWS, distributed systems, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), CI/CD, and Linux environments.
This role requires a strong engineering mindset, with a focus on building resilient, scalable, secure, and cost-efficient infrastructure. You will drive improvements in system reliability, deployment automation, observability, and operational excellence while supporting the performance and availability requirements of critical production workloads.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities
- Design, maintain, and optimise scalable, secure, and highly available AWS cloud infrastructure for large-scale production systems.
- Drive capacity planning, infrastructure performance tuning, resource optimisation, and cloud cost management.
- Manage and optimise AWS services, including ECS, EC2, VPC, IAM, RDS, Kinesis, WAF, Systems Manager (SSM), and Secrets Manager.
- Improve production reliability, availability, resilience, and recovery capabilities across distributed systems.
- Enhance observability through monitoring, centralised logging, distributed tracing, alerting, and operational dashboards.
- Strengthen incident management, troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, and preventive measures for recurring production issues.
- Design and implement infrastructure automation using Terraform, AWS CDK, CloudFormation, or similar Infrastructure as Code tools.
- Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and related automation technologies.
- Implement GitOps practices and improve deployment workflows to enable consistent, secure, and repeatable releases.
- Build automation tools and utilities using Go, Python, or Shell scripting to reduce manual operational effort.
- Troubleshoot complex issues involving Linux production environments, networking, system internals, and distributed application architectures.
- Collaborate with engineering and platform teams to improve application scalability, infrastructure design, and deployment reliability.
- Establish infrastructure standards, operational best practices, and reusable automation frameworks.
- Drive continuous improvements in cloud security, configuration management, operational efficiency, and engineering productivity.
- Mentor engineers and provide technical guidance on DevOps, SRE, cloud infrastructure, and production engineering practices.
What Makes You a Great Fit
- 10+ years of experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, Platform Engineering, or Cloud Infrastructure.

- Deep hands-on expertise in AWS cloud infrastructure and services, including compute, networking, databases, security, and monitoring.
- Strong understanding of Linux production environments, system internals, networking, and troubleshooting.
- Solid knowledge of distributed systems, asynchronous architectures, scalability, fault tolerance, and high availability.
- Proficiency in Go, Python, or Shell scripting for infrastructure automation and operational tooling.
- Expertise in Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, AWS CDK, CloudFormation, or equivalent tools.
- Extensive experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and implementing GitOps practices.
- Strong understanding of monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting, and production observability.
- Proven ability to drive capacity planning, performance optimisation, cloud cost control, and infrastructure reliability improvements.
- Strong problem-solving and root-cause analysis skills, with the ability to resolve complex production issues.
- Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
- Ability to take ownership of critical infrastructure initiatives, make sound technical decisions, and operate effectively in a fast-paced environment.
