A major government department is going through one of the most influential digital transformations in history and building a platform that will be used across the board in all subdivisions. Key teams across multiple disciplines are being assembled onsite with them in their South London office and they are currently in search of DevOps technicians to join.

This role requires recent experience in the design, build and implementation of cloud application infrastructure platforms (VMWare based) using 2nd generation automation toolsets. All applicants must have extensive hands on technical experience, including knowledge of Server Side operating systems based on Linux, preferably running Java applications.

  • Experience working in Agile Scrum environment, sprints and continuous integration
  • Experience with continuous build and continuous delivery

  • Cloud hosting: Vmware Vcloud director (Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Director)
  • Experience with NoSQL, MongoDB, Redis would be beneficial but not vital
  • Jenkins is a definite
