Senior Devops Engineer

We’re redefining consumer lending in the UK, and beyond. Using advanced AI and Open Banking data, we make fair, affordable personal finance available to more people. While traditional lenders rely almost entirely on credit scores, we look at the full financial picture - how much you spend, and what you can afford to repay to build a deeper, more accurate understanding of each customer's unique financial situation.

As a DevOps Engineer within the Platform team, you will play a critical role in accelerating and securing the delivery of our Unsecured Personal Loans (UPL) products. Acting as an embedded expert, you will bridge the gap between our core Platform capabilities and the UPL product engineering team. You will take ownership of the infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and automation tools that power this critical business domain. This is an Individual Contributor (IC) role with high impact and autonomy.

In your first 6–12 months, your primary focus will be to standardize and optimize the UPL team's infrastructure using AWS CDK and Terraform. You will work closely with UPL engineers to identify bottlenecks in their deployment lifecycle, redesigning CI/CD pipelines to improve release velocity and reliability. By servicing their day-to-day infrastructure needs, implementing cloud best practices, and driving automation, you will establish yourself as a trusted partner who enables the product team to ship features securely and efficiently.
