Senior DevOps Engineer

About this role

Build the infrastructure powering the future of construction At XYZ Reality , we’ve created the world’s first engineering-grade Augmented Reality solution for construction. Our technology, The Atom, is used on major projects worldwide to help construction teams build more accurately, efficiently and with fewer mistakes. As a Series B business scaling across the UK, US and Europe, the infrastructure behind our technology needs to scale with us.

We’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to take ownership of the cloud infrastructure and DevOps practices powering our BIM Platform, working across Azure, Kubernetes, CI/CD, observability, security and developer tooling. The Role This is a hands-on senior engineering role with broad ownership across our cloud and platform infrastructure. You’ll work closely with our Engineering, Data and Security teams to build reliable, scalable infrastructure while improving how our developers deploy, monitor and troubleshoot their services.

We want DevOps to be an enabler rather than a gatekeeper. That means building the tooling, automation and self-service capabilities that allow engineering teams to move quickly and safely without creating unnecessary dependencies on DevOps. You’ll have the autonomy to identify where our infrastructure and engineering practices can improve and take ownership of making those improvements happen. The role is based in our London office on a hybrid basis, with 3 days per week in the office.
