DevOps Platform Engineer

Would you like to help grow a fledgling engineering organisation? Perhaps you know what great engineering culture looks like, or you have an entrepreneurial side as well as outstanding coding skills? Whatever your aspirations, we’re trying to create the best engineering consultancy in the UK and looking for brilliant engineers to be part of the journey.

Credera helps organisations solve their biggest, most exciting engineering problems. We’ve created banks from scratch on Kubernetes and AWS, built streaming analytics solutions that protect the country and built platforms to enable whole organisations to move to AWS and Azure, and everything in between. We do all this in a work environment where regular social events, inclusivity and an ego-free culture mean we’ve been officially voted a “Great Place to Work” for five years in a row.

Here’s what you will do

You will solve the problems that others cannot. You'll spend a day a week working on a combination of internal products and your own development, creating platforms based around a modern, cloud-native tech stack:

• Java 8+ and Kotlin
   
• Python
• AWS, Azure and Google Cloud
• Kubernetes
• Terraform
• Dataiku
• And more…

Requirements

This is a permanent role within our Technology function. We consider flexible ways of working, that allow the best outcomes for our people and clients. Working closely with our clients is key to successful outcomes, and so travel both UK and international is a requirement.

Responsibilities

As an Engineer at Credera, you will spend roughly 80% of your time on client work, solving interesting problems, with the remainder of your time spent working on internal projects and I.P. as well as training and development.
