  • Develop scripts/tools to streamline engineering workflows and reduce operational toil
  • Support API delivery and integration with engineering tooling (GitLab/Jira/Teams)

  • Strong DevOps capability across CI/CD, automation, deployment, monitoring/observability
  • Commercial experience with Node.js + TypeScript
  • Python experience (automation/scripting and/or backend)
  • Experience with Jira and modern developer tooling (e.g., VS Code)
  • Clear communicator-able to collaborate with engineers and stakeholders

Nice to have

  • Accessibility-aware development practices
  • Experience with advanced automation approaches (e.g., intelligent CI/CD workflows)
