Junior DevOps Engineer
About this role.
DIGI2AL is a rapidly growing team of innovators, and we're looking for passionate individuals to help us deliver exciting projects across the public sector and defence. We're not just a company; we're a team of creatives, specialists, and technologists working together to solve complex problems. If you're eager to learn and grow, this is the perfect place for you.
Skills.
As part of our growing DevOps practice, you'll be deployed on key client projects, where you'll collaborate with the team to accelerate delivery and share best practices. A great example of the kind of work you'll do is our "Open Architecture Research & Development" project. Here, we're developing a secure, scalable platform-as-a-service (PaaS) for a defence client. This platform will use a containerised architecture to process maritime data, and you'll work alongside skilled engineers to help build and mature it.
As a Junior DevOps Engineer, you will be a key part of our technical team, learning on the job by building and implementing software components. You'll work under the guidance of experienced engineers, contributing to real-world projects from day one.
Your day-to-day work will involve:
- Building Complex Solutions. You'll assist in building and configuring components of a larger project, helping to bring a complex technical story to life.
- Hands-On Implementation. You will focus on the practical implementation of solutions, gaining valuable experience with cutting-edge tools and technologies.
- Learning and Growth. You'll work under direct supervision, receiving mentorship and feedback to help you quickly develop your skills and knowledge in a supportive environment.
Experience.
Technical Expertise:
We are seeking a proactive and motivated individual with a foundational understanding of DevOps principles. While you won't be expected to have extensive experience, any exposure to the following is a plus:
- Cloud Infrastructure: Use of AWS or Azure for cloud infrastructure, implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with Terraform.
- Containerisation & Orchestration: Built around Docker and the Kubernetes ecosystem, including deployment of application and services clusters.
- GitOps: Integral to continuous delivery workflows, specifically through ArgoCD, proficiency in Git and CI/CD pipelines managed via GitLab.
- Automation & Scripting: Key, primarily using Python or PowerShell within Linux environments.
Most importantly, we value a strong eagerness to learn, a willingness to work as part of a team, and the drive to contribute to our mission.
We're not just building technology; we're building a team. If you're passionate about what you do and ready to work in an environment that values learning and collaboration, we want to hear from you.
