DevOps Engineer (120975)

Pardon Our Interruption
Full-time
On-site
London, United Kingdom

 

Location(s): London

 

BAE Systems Digital Intelligence is home to 4,500 digital, cyber and intelligence experts. We work collaboratively across 10 countries to collect, connect and understand complex data, so that governments, nation states, armed forces and commercial businesses can unlock digital advantage in the most demanding environments.

Are you passionate about working with cutting-edge technology and self-motivated to find innovative solutions to complex challenges as part of a team who help keep the UK safe?  Join BAE Systems as an experienced DevOps Engineer.

 

As a key member of a Software Engineering team, you’ll be working with our National Security Customers to build systems that support their core mission capabilities. You’ll work as part of empowered, autonomous DevOps teams with regular contact with end-users to flexibly and efficiently understand, design, develop, deploy and maintain applications and services.  You’ll be encouraged to identify new ways of solving problems and get to work in a range of different teams across our customer organisations.  You will work in a small team given as much ownership and responsibility as you have the appetite for but be part of a much bigger Engineering community to give you the support you need to grow in your career.

 

We fully embrace DevOps ways of working in our teams, and build a very broad range of capabilities for our customers.  We therefore value Engineers who enjoy playing a role in the full delivery lifecycle and are flexible to learn and pick up new technologies and approaches.  You’ll be playing a role in identifying the right technologies to use for the job and be supported with training as needed through access to services such as Pluralsight.

 

Not only will your team be directly making a huge impact upon the systems you work on, you’ll be doing it for an organisation who makes a huge impact to the security of the UK.
