Role

Who you are

Several years running cloud infrastructure in production on AWS. Experience with Azure is a bonus
Knowledge of Terraform (Teragrunt is a bonus) beyond the basics. You’ve managed complex estates, written reusable modules, and worked across multiple environments
Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and ArgoCD in a production context
Ability to write Python or Bash to automate
Experience with CI/CD (CircleCI is a bonus) at a level where you have created pipelines, not just used them. You understand the security considerations and have thought about deployment from a risk perspective

What the job involves

The role offers the opportunity to contribute across major national programmes, spanning justice and probation, national licensing, and beyond
It is well suited to an engineer who wants real technical influence, enjoys helping teams succeed, and wants to play a meaningful part in developing the next generation of large-scale public-sector services
Take ownership of cloud infrastructure from provisioning through to day-to-day operations, working closely with our Solutions Architect on significant changes
Use Infrastructure as Code as the default for everything, maintaining and improving our setup as the infrastructure evolves
Keep our CI/CD pipelines fast and reliable. When something breaks or slows down, you investigate and fix it properly rather than patching around it
Monitor environments to track performance, uptime, and resource usage. Responding and troubleshooting any issues that might arise
Stay curious about what is happening in the industry. If there is a better way to do something, we want to hear about it. Bring ideas, run spikes and make the case. We’re open to changing how we work when there is a good reason to
Work closely with wider teams to understand needs and provide DevOps solutions

Our take

NEC Software Solutions is a branch under the NEC Corporation umbrella, that delivers software and services to support public health, safety and connection. The company’s customer base is rooted in national governments and international health bodies, spanning police forces, emergency services, local authorities and housing providers.

Since its acquisition by NEC Group in 2018 the company has seen substantial growth with NEC's support. It has made numerous strategic partnerships and acquired Vantage Health, Cadcorp and Pro-Mapp to bolster its capablities.

In 2022, NEC Software Solutions was ordered by the CMA (Competitions and Markets Authority) to sell parts of its acquisition of Capita Secure Solutions, after an investigation revealed emergency services could end up paying more for crucial software. However, this stands as a mere bump in the road against the company's broad success, where it remains a leader in public sector software and services on a global scale.
