• Strong experience designing, implementing, and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (particularly GitLab CI/CD).
• Proven ability to deploy and manage containerised applications using Kubernetes.
• Advanced use of Terraform for cloud infrastructure provisioning.
• Integration of testing tools (e.g., PyTest, Selenium) within automated pipelines.
• Experience with Docker for containerisation and packaging.
• Implementation and management of monitoring solutions (Prometheus, Grafana).
• Strong knowledge of cloud security practices, including TLS encryption and secrets management.
• Experience with GitLab API for automation and reporting.
• Knowledge of security and approval planning processes.
• Experience with Apache Tomcat, SIP, RTF, or telephony systems.

Our client offers a comprehensive package, which may include:

• Contributory pension scheme (6% employer, 2% employee).
• 25 days annual leave plus UK public holidays.
• Critical illness cover and life assurance.
• Cycle-to-Work scheme and electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme.
