Job description

DevOps Engineer


IR35 determination: Inside
Level of Security Clearance Required: SC (active is a massive plus)
Contract: 6 months initially - extending to a year
Day Rate: £negotiable

Brief:

  • Client currently hosts around 80 live services and microservices, with more in development.
  • Client is modernising its Platform provision to enable greater automation of development including automatic scaling, reduced support costs, as well as reduced risks of human error.
  • Migration of services to the new platform reutilises shared central infrastructure and will allow client to decommission the existing CHDP (Cloud Hosting Digital Platform) thereby enabling cost savings.
  • Platform modernisation plays a significant part of the client's strategy to exit its contracts with an existing supplier in April 2021 and is a key enabler for new digital services to operate.
  • Continued maintenance of the existing CHDP platform is mission critical in being able to support digital services including the management of existing relationships with key stakeholders.
  • Utilising existing knowledge greatly de-risks platform maintenance and re-utilises existing knowledge to ensure incidents can be managed in accordance with SLA's and supports migration efforts to the EBSA platform.

  • A Dev-Ops Engineer is therefore required to oversee incidents, meet security standards and maintain service continuity for our critical services.


Key Deliverables:

  • Ongoing Cloud Hosting Digital Platform (CHDP) Platform critical server maintenance.
  • Support Data seeding for Data Replication.
  • Set up connectivity between client Data Centre (HODC)and CHDP.
  • Ongoing HODC Platform maintenance and upgrades.
  • Provide on-call services for the platforms.
