What they look for
Requirements
The ideal candidate has strong hands-on experience in DevOps or cloud engineering, specifically with Azure DevOps, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code tools. You must possess strong PowerShell automation skills and a practical mindset for improving feedback loops and security within delivery pipelines.
Benefits
Full description
As a DevOps Engineer, you will join a global engineering organisation supporting the delivery of WTW’s flagship Radar Live product. You will work teams and disciplines to improve the end-to-end path from code commit through build, automated testing, security scanning, release, deployment and environment validation.
This is a hands-on DevOps engineering role focused on improving the flow, safety, repeatability and quality of software delivery. You will help build and maintain the automation, pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code, Kubernetes deployment patterns and engineering practices that allow development teams to deliver reliably and at velocity.
The ideal candidate will have strong experience with Azure DevOps, PowerShell automation, OpenTofu/Terraform-style Infrastructure-as-Code, Azure, AKS and Kubernetes. Just as importantly, they will bring a practical DevOps mindset: reducing manual work, improving feedback loops, embedding security and quality checks into delivery, supporting developers, and making complex delivery processes simpler, safer and more observable.
The Role
As a DevOps Engineer, you will help improve the engineering systems and practices that take Radar Live from code change to validated deployment. You will work closely with development teams, SaaS infrastructure, security, QA and architecture to make delivery safer, faster, more automated and easier to operate.
You will be expected to:
- Build, maintain and improve Azure DevOps YAML pipelines for build, validation, packaging, release and deployment workflows.
- Support the full delivery flow from code commit through automated testing, security scanning, release evidence, deployment and environment validation.
- Develop PowerShell automation and tooling that reduces manual effort and improves consistency across teams and environments.
- Maintain and extend Infrastructure-as-Code using OpenTofu and Terraform-compatible patterns for Azure-based development and production-like environments.
- Support AKS and Kubernetes-based deployment patterns, including Helm, workload configuration, ingress, secrets, certificates and troubleshooting.
- Work with Azure services such as AKS, Azure Front Door, API Management, Azure DNS, Key Vault, Managed Identities, Azure networking and Microsoft Entra ID.
- Integrate and support security tooling and quality gates, including Mend, Snyk, Invicti, Wiz and GitLeaks.
- Improve observability and feedback across build, deployment and environment health using tools such as Datadog, Azure Monitor and Log Analytics.
- Help development teams diagnose delivery, deployment and environment issues in non-production and production-like SaaS environments.
- Improve release traceability, auditability and governance while keeping delivery processes practical and developer friendly.
- Use delivery and flow metrics pragmatically to identify bottlenecks, reduce avoidable failures and support continuous improvement.
- Collaborate across teams to promote DevOps practices, shared engineering standards and reliable, repeatable delivery.
- Contribute to future CI/CD evolution, including potential adoption of GitHub Actions.
