Senior Site Reliability Engineer

How you'll help us live our purpose    

We've been helping our members save for their future and buy their own home since 1875. Join us and you'll play a big role in helping us to put home ownership within reach of more people, generation after generation.   

It's a purpose that drives everything we do.  And you can play your part too – we're looking for 2 Site Reliability Engineers to join our Data team.

How you'll make a difference 

You'll help maintain and improve the reliability of our data services during a time of large-scale transformation - we are migrating data products and services from an on-premise SAP platform to Azure and Databricks. Using an engineering-led approach, you'll strengthen observability, monitoring, alerting, automation and incident response across a complex cloud-native environment.

You'll support Azure data platforms and PaaS services, triage and resolve incidents, manage third-party integrations and support other colleagues by coaching them on technical requirements. 

What will you bring to the role?

• Strong site reliability experience supporting Databricks, Azure and enterprise data platforms
• Experience using Azure DevOps pipelines to improve service reliability
• Strong automation and scripting skills that reduce manual intervention
• Experience with observability, monitoring, alerting and performance management
• Strong incident triage, problem-solving and major incident management experience
• Experience working proactively across internal teams, suppliers and third-party providers with excellent communication skills

And in return, you'll get the best from us:

•  Hybrid working – 2 days per week in the office
• Annual bonus of up to 12%   
• Matched pension contributions up to 10%   
• 26 days holiday, plus bank holidays and holiday purchase scheme    
• Colleague Mortgage and Saver products   
• 2 days' volunteering per year   

We'll give you a place to belong with the support to learn, develop and shape a meaningful career.

You'll be joining a truly purpose-focused culture which helped us win the Leading with Purpose award at the 2023 Business Culture Awards. This recognises how we've embedded our purpose with our colleagues, and the actions we've taken to put home ownership within reach of more people, generation after generation.
