This is a rare opportunity to join at the start of something big.

The excitement of a startup, with the security of a big, established company.

We are helping a large UK‑owned software group to build and scale a world‑class, AI‑first engineering organisation in Manchester. They have very ambitious plans and the budget to make it happen.

The Site Reliability Engineer plays a critical role in ensuring the AI‑driven, cloud‑native platform is reliable, observable, secure, and able to scale with the organisation’s growth. As they adopt intelligent agents, autonomous workflows, and increasingly complex distributed systems, the SRE ensures that resilience, performance, and operational excellence are built into everything they deliver. By partnering closely with Engineers, Architects, and the Engineering Manager, the SRE defines the patterns, tooling, and automation that enable fast, safe, and reliable delivery.

This role safeguards the production environment, drives continuous improvement across CI/CD and observability, and establishes the reliability practices that empower autonomous squads to move quickly without compromising stability. The SRE is essential to maintaining customer trust, supporting AI‑first innovation, and ensuring the platform remains robust, secure, and highly available at scale.

• Proven experience in AWS and Azure cloud environments
• Strong background in CI/CD tools (e.g., Azure Dev Ops, Pipelines, Git Hub Actions, Jenkins).
• Expertise in monitoring and observability platforms (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog).
• Proficiency in scripting and automation (Python, Bash, Power Shell).
• Familiarity with containerisation and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Solid understanding of networking, security, and cost optimisation in cloud environments.
• Knowledge of cybersecurity principles, secure coding practices, and compliance frameworks.

Benefits include an industry‑leading benefits package, with hybrid working in their central Manchester office.
