We are currently working with a growing technology business in the healthcare software space who are looking to add a Platform Engineer / DevOps Engineer to their engineering team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys building reliable infrastructure, improving deployment processes, and working in a modern cloud-native environment.

The business is investing heavily in new cloud-based products and platforms, and they’re looking for an engineer who can help scale and improve the environments that support both development and production systems.

The Role:

You’ll be working closely with software engineering teams to:

  • Build and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure
  • Improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation
  • Support Kubernetes-based environments and containerised applications
  • Enhance platform reliability, monitoring, and observability
  • Troubleshoot production and infrastructure issues
  • Contribute to infrastructure security and operational best practices
  • Drive continuous improvement across tooling and platform operations

This is a hands-on engineering role with real ownership and the opportunity to influence how platforms are built and operated moving forward.

Tech Environment:

The stack includes technologies such as:

  • Kubernetes
  • Linux
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • GitOps / Argo CD
  • Bitbucket & Bamboo
  • MongoDB / PostgreSQL
  • Kafka
  • OpenSearch
  • Bash / PowerShell scripting
  • Cloud infrastructure

They’re open to candidates from DevOps, Platform Engineering, SRE, Cloud Engineering, or strong Infrastructure backgrounds.

What They’re Looking For:

Key experience includes:

  • Commercial experience in a DevOps, Platform, SRE, or Infrastructure Engineering role
  • Strong Linux administration skills
  • Experience with CI/CD and deployment automation
  • Exposure to cloud-hosted infrastructure
  • Kubernetes/container experience
  • Scripting/automation experience
  • Understanding of monitoring, logging, and operational support

Experience with GitOps, Argo CD, Kafka, or database platforms would be beneficial but isn’t essential.

In return the Company offers:

  • A competitive salary and benefits package
  • Modern engineering environment
  • Strong focus on automation and cloud-native technologies
  • Stable and growing business
  • Meaningful products used within healthcare
  • Supportive technical culture with genuine progression opportunities
  • Good balance of project work and operational engineering

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.
