Our client is a media-focused software company delivering world-class platforms used by influencers, creators, and brand ambassadors. Their innovative software powers interactions across multiple digital channels, offering users access to indexed content from sources worldwide.

As they continue to expand, they are looking for a DevOps Engineer or Platform Specialist who will play a pivotal role in leading the transformation and scalability of their infrastructure and site reliability. You'll bring the best of your on-prem expertise and cloud services knowledge to build distributed systems that are reliable, scalable, and high-performing.

- Experience in Agile/Scrum methodologies to drive efficient development cycles.

- Cloud expertise – ideally some AWS (EC2, CloudFront, API Gateway, Lambda).

- Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and Docker for containerization and orchestration.

- A solid understanding of horizontal scalability for distributed systems.

- Experience with Ansible, Puppet, or Chef for configuration management.

- Proficiency with databases and storage technologies (SQL, MySQL, Redis, ElasticSearch).

What You'll Bring:

- DevOps is your passion, and you thrive in environments where both *on-prem* and cloud solutions come together.

- A background in software development is advantageous, but leading DevOps initiatives and driving innovation is your core strength.

- You have experience scripting in Python or Bash and a solid programming foundation in languages like Java, Kotlin, C#, Ruby, Golang, Node.js, or C++.

- You have successfully built highly available systems at scale, managing infrastructure that supports mission-critical applications.

What You’ll Do:

- Lead and grow a dynamic team of engineers, creating and deploying high-calibre solutions that support an international user base.

- Architect and manage infrastructure that supports software accessed globally, with a focus on performance, security, and scalability.

Contribute to the development of future-proof infrastructure that bridges the gap between on-prem and cloud-based environments, aligning with the company’s rapid growth and evolving needs. This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of a key role within a fast-growing, innovative company, leveraging your **on-prem expertise** alongside cutting-edge cloud technologies to push the boundaries of what's possible in the world of media software
