Help our Software Development team to success 

Site Reliability Engineers work with Agile Release Trains to ensure we build services that work well at scale. We're looking for a Site Reliability Engineer who can help us design, build, and maintain high performance, scalable, reliable services. You will work within our Platform team to build and run the core components that power the CityFibre ecosystem. Day to day, this is some of what you can expect to be doing: 

• Implement and enhance monitoring, alerting, and observability systems to proactively identify and resolve potential issues before they impact users.
• Actively improve reliability, quality and scalability of our systems through the use of automation.
• Aid capacity management activities around new releases such as product launches.
• Conduct performance analysis, capacity planning, and load testing to ensure our systems can handle current and future workloads.

What you’ll bring to the role  

You’ll bring extensive problem-solving experience to identify root causes and implement effective solutions, ensuring that issues are resolved and do not reoccur. You’ll also bring experience in: 

• Cloud, preferably AWS
• PHP or Python
• CI/CD technologies
• Event Driven Architecture

We’re looking for people who don’t settle for ‘good enough’ and push things forward. If you’ve just found yourself thinking, ‘I’d love to do this’, we want to hear from you. Let’s change it up. 

What you can expect from us 

With a salary up to £60,000 depending on experience, when you join us, you’ll also enjoy 25 days’ holiday, a day off on your birthday, a day off to support a charity or organisation of your choice, a performance-related bonus scheme, and private healthcare.
