The Person

You'll be a DevOps specialist - able to advise us what scalable architecture looks like and put together migration and monitoring plans for our infrastructure, as well as advising the business on security best practices to help us meet the rigorous standards of our growing list of enterprise clients.

You'll naturally feel a sense of responsibility for your tech stack and encourage others to find ways to optimise and improve the ways code is deployed and our systems.

This is a dual-role - you'll be working across Recite Me and our sister agency, ARCH - keeping our client sites running and our SaaS accessibility services operating globally.

This role is perfect for a self-starter with deep sector expertise and a willingness to get stuck in and make our technology stack the very best it can be, supported by a first-class team in a rapidly growing technology company.
