(Tech stack: DevOps Engineer, PowerShell, C#, Java, Python, Ansible, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, ELK, Grafana, CI/CD, TeamCity, SQL Server, Windows, Linux, Programmer, Developer, Architect, DevOps Engineer)

Our client is a cutting-edge FinTech company with a reputation for innovation and excellence. They design and build advanced trading and analytics platforms used globally by some of the world's leading financial institutions. With ambitious plans for growth and new product launches, they are now seeking a talented DevOps Engineer to join their team in Newcastle.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will be responsible for creating, maintaining, and optimising the infrastructure and pipelines that support highly complex financial software platforms. You'll work closely with developers and stakeholders, ensuring deployments are seamless, environments are robust, and systems are both secure and scalable. This is a fantastic opportunity to apply your technical expertise in a collaborative, fast-paced environment where innovation is actively encouraged.

The successful candidate will bring:

  • A 2:1 degree or above in Computer Science (or related), ideally from a top university.

  • Strong ability in scripting with PowerShell or a similar language.

  • Hands-on coding skills in at least one of C#, Java, or Python.

  • Practical knowledge of automation tools such as Terraform or Ansible.

  • Background in container platforms (e.g., Docker) with orchestration using Kubernetes or Swarm.

  • Familiarity with system monitoring solutions (e.g., ELK, Grafana, or similar).

  • Proven track record in building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, preferably with TeamCity.

  • Experience working with SQL databases, particularly Microsoft SQL Server.

  • Comfort managing both Windows and Linux environments.

  • The ability to communicate clearly with colleagues and clients to resolve challenges and deliver solutions.

Desirable (but not essential):
  • Working knowledge of Atlassian products such as JIRA or Bitbucket.

  • Exposure to artifact management tools like Artifactory.

  • Deployment automation experience with Octopus Deploy.

  • Awareness of code quality and analysis tools (e.g., SonarQube).

  • Background with job scheduling platforms such as Control-M.

  • Experience with major cloud providers (Azure, AWS, GCP).

  • Familiarity with VMware (vSphere) and storage area networks.

Previous experience in financial services would be advantageous, though not a requirement.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join a forward-thinking organisation where your contributions will directly shape the delivery of world-class FinTech products.
