Site Reliability Engineer

2 Days Old

Site Reliability Engineer (Azure)

Location: Manchester or Glasgow (2 days per week on-site)

Sponsorship: Unfortunately my client is unable to support visa sponsorships with this hire

I am seeking an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to join a global financial services organisation. This is a true engineering role focused on building, scaling, and optimising Azure infrastructure - not just operational support.

The Role

As an SRE, you’ll design and engineer resilient cloud platforms, develop automation to reduce manual tasks, and ensure the reliability and scalability of critical systems. You’ll work closely with other engineers to embed SRE principles across infrastructure and deployments, helping to drive cloud adoption and operational excellence.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Engineering into Azure public cloud infrastructure – deployment, scaling, and optimisation.
  • Building automation and tooling (Python preferred; PowerShell or Terraform also applicable).
  • Supporting CI/CD pipelines and SRE tooling (Jenkins a nice-to-have, but not essential).
  • Participating in an on‑call rota (1 weekend in 12, with the option to volunteer for additional weekends for extra pay).
  • Partnering with DevOps teams and helping engineers transition towards SRE best practice.

What I’m Looking For

  • Hands‑on Azure expertise – infrastructure, deployment, and engineering.
  • Strong automation skills – ideally Python, but PowerShell or Terraform also relevant.
  • Background in DevOps with a clear motivation to move into full SRE is okay.
  • Team‑oriented mindset with a passion for solving complex infrastructure challenges.
  • Financial services experience is not required.

If this sounds like you or someone you know, I encourage you to apply today!
