  • Experience with containerisation technology and orchestration platforms e.g. Docker, Kubernetes.
  • Knowledge of architectural concepts such as microservices and service mesh.
  • Experience in scaling, building and testing with automation; e.g. including tooling in pipelines instead of manual operational changes.
  • Growth mindset and a desire to learn, teach, and improve skills.
  • Previous ownership of mission-critical shared infrastructure.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with CI/CD systems, in particular Spinnaker.
  • Experience in implementing SRE principles.
  • Good knowledge of observability stacks and tooling (e.g. Grafana, ELK, Prometheus, Tracing).
  • Good discipline and skill in producing written documentation and diagrams.
  • Good knowledge of cloud networking and security.
  • Experience working in a regulated business (e.g. PCI).
  • Experience of capacity planning as well as performance and load testing.
