Company

A growing and forward-thinking technology business is looking to strengthen its infrastructure capability as it continues to scale. With a strong focus on delivering reliable, secure, and high-performing platforms, the company is investing in its DevOps function to support ongoing growth and innovation.

You’ll be joining a collaborative, low-bureaucracy environment where technical expertise is valued, and individuals are empowered to influence decisions and shape the future of the platform.

Location: Gateshead (office-based 3 days per week)



Role

This is an exciting opportunity for a DevOps Engineer to play a key role in improving platform stability, scalability, and security.

Working closely with senior technical leadership, you will contribute to the design and evolution of infrastructure, helping to build a resilient and efficient environment that supports the wider engineering team.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Enhancing cloud infrastructure, reliability, and operational performance
  • Designing, maintaining, and improving Infrastructure as Code
  • Supporting CI/CD pipelines, deployment processes, and automation
  • Contributing to security practices, controls, and compliance activities
  • Improving monitoring, observability, and incident response
  • Troubleshooting issues with a focus on long-term solutions
  • Collaborating with engineering teams to ensure smooth, efficient delivery
  • Supporting improvements that reduce risk and eliminate single points of failure

You’ll also have the opportunity to contribute to technical strategy, influence platform direction, and help define best practices across infrastructure and DevOps.


Person

We’re looking for a pragmatic, hands-on engineer with a strong DevOps background and a proactive mindset.

You’ll bring:

  • Proven experience in DevOps or infrastructure roles within production environments
  • A strong awareness of security best practices and a proactive approach to risk
  • Experience working with cloud platforms (AWS preferred)
  • Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g. AWS CDK, Terraform, or similar)
  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and modern deployment practices
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work in evolving environments

Desirable experience:

  • Observability and monitoring tools (e.g. Datadog)
  • Networking, DNS, or cloud networking knowledge
  • Exposure to SRE practices or reliability engineering
  • Experience with migrations, scaling environments, or infrastructure transformation

You will be someone who communicates clearly, works collaboratively, and enjoys solving real-world problems without waiting for perfect conditions.

Where to Advertise Cyber Security Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise cyber security jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that reach offensive, defensive and GRC security talent. The candidate pool is small, heavily vetted and in high demand across government, financial services, critical national infrastructure and the private sector simultaneously. Many of the strongest candidates hold active security clearances, are not actively job-searching through general platforms, and move primarily through specialist networks and trusted referrals. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that security professionals expect. Specialist platforms, government-affiliated channels and cleared candidate networks each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by CybersecurityJobs.tech, covers where to advertise cyber security roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the threat intelligence, cloud security and zero-trust hiring trends shaping UK cyber careers. Cyber security is one of the few sectors where demand for talent has never once dipped. Every major technological shift of the past decade — cloud migration, remote working, AI adoption, the proliferation of connected devices — has expanded the attack surface that security professionals are expected to defend. And every expansion of that attack surface has generated more jobs. But the cyber security jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. It is a structurally different market. The threats have evolved, the technologies used to combat them have changed, the regulatory environment has tightened considerably, and the roles being created reflect all of that. A job seeker who understands only the cyber security landscape of 2023 is already working with an outdated map. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping defensive and offensive security practice, and how the definition of a cyber security professional is broadening well beyond the traditional image of a network defender in a SOC. This article breaks down what the UK cyber security jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
