• Create documentation, runbooks and knowledge transfer to ensure long-term adoption.
• Continuously improve and support automations based on operational feedback and business needs.

About You:

• Experience in DevOps, Automation Engineering, Systems Engineering, MSP, SOC or similar technical operations roles.
• Strong scripting skills in Python, PowerShell or Bash.
• Experience with Git, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions or CI/CD pipelines.
• Exposure to Azure or AWS cloud platforms.
• Experience integrating systems through REST APIs and webhooks.
• A practical mindset with a passion for solving operational problems through automation.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work closely with technical teams.

Nice to Have

• Be part of a collaborative engineering team focused on continuous improvement.
• Exposure to modern cloud, DevOps and AI technologies.
• Clear career progression into Senior DevOps, Automation Leadership or Platform Engineering.
