This is a critical hire offering a 50/50 split between hands-on engineering and team leadership. You’ll play a key role in shaping platform strategy, managing a skilled team, and owning Azure Kubernetes infrastructure end-to-end.

Key Responsibilities:
  • 50% hands-on DevOps engineering, 50% people and team management.
  • Lead the migration to cloud-native infrastructure (Azure).
  • Manage a DevOps team of 5–8 engineers.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders and technical leads.
  • Own and operate Azure-based Kubernetes clusters.
  • Contribute to organisation-wide DevOps strategy and tooling maturity.
Core Technical Requirements:
  • Deep hands-on DevOps background.
  • Expertise in:
    • Azure (native cloud solutions preferred)
    • Kubernetes (production-scale clusters)
    • Terraform (IaC best practices)

*Note - The business is prepared to support relocation for EU citizens looking to move to Switzerland.

If you’re ready to lead from the front and make a lasting impact on a growing DevOps function, we’d like to hear from you.
