• Raise developer productivity. Provide self-service tools, automated CI/CD pipelines and standardised workflows that minimise developers' cognitive load so they can focus on features.

• Own observability. Implement and maintain monitoring, logging and alerting so uptime and performance hold,

  and give development teams the data to troubleshoot fast.

• Meet regulatory standards. Work with compliance so the platform meets technical standards such as GLI and UKGC for data integrity, security and responsible gaming.

• 5+ years of experience in a Dev Ops, SRE or platform engineering role, with at least 2 years in a leadership or senior capacity.

• Deep knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).

• Solid understanding of information security principles and the technical requirements of iGaming regulators.

• Exceptional analytical and troubleshooting skills, with the ability to diagnose complex issues in a production environment.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

• Direct experience within B2B iGaming or another high‑transactional, regulated industry.
