About the role

  • Senior DevX Engineer at Zopa architecting how software is built. Working with a modern stack including Go, AWS, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions.

Responsibilities

  • Architecting the Platform Evolution: Designing the templates and workflows that will move hundreds of microservices onto GitHub Actions.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Meeting with product squads to identify friction points and writing technical RFCs to solve them.
  • Data-Driven Optimization: Analyzing DORA/DX metrics to prove that your tools have increased delivery experience (speed, stability, flow).
  • Mentoring: Levelling up our mid-level and associate engineers through pairing and high-standard code reviews.

Requirements

  • Programming Knowledge: You'll spend time writing high-quality Go code to build APIs, CLIs, tools and automation providers, but we are open to anyone with a deep knowledge of a similar language (Java, Kotlin, .Net)
  • Platform Visionary: You don’t just "deploy stuff for people"; you build the self-service platforms that allow people to easily deploy stuff for themselves.
  • CI/CD Specialist: Deep, production-level experience with GitHub Actions and Jenkins is essential. You’ve ideally navigated a migration between the two before.
  • Infrastructure Native: You are a power user of Kubernetes and AWS (including Lambdas). You understand the "why" behind the architecture, not just the "how."
  • Proactive Communicator: You are comfortable presenting to stakeholders, writing clear documentation, and acting as the "face" of the DevX team.
  • The "Product" Mindset: You have experience with measuring success based on quantitate and qualitative metrics (developer sentiment, speed, cost), not by tickets closed.

Benefits

  • flexible ways of working
  • face-to-face collaboration
  • good work-life balance
  • option of working from abroad for up to 120 days a year
