Role description
DevOps Engineer (Contract)
£480 per day (Inside IR35)
3-4 Months | Remote
Harnham is partnered with a fast-growing SaaS start-up who are building a cutting-edge AI & ML product that plugs directly into clients' websites. Their solution automates content development, streamlines feeds, and powers chatbot functionality - all without requiring clients to make major changes to their platforms. With one paying customer already and a full launch planned for the end of the year, this is a unique opportunity to get involved at a pivotal growth stage.
They're now looking for a DevOps Engineer to join their small, collaborative engineering team on a contract basis and help take the platform to the next level.
The Role
You'll be the go-to person for DevOps, working alongside backend engineers to:
• Build and maintain scalable infrastructure in Azure DevOps.
• Manage Kubernetes and Docker environments.
• Optimise cloud costs and provide visibility across the business.
• Act as a communicator - challenging, pushing back, and guiding the team where needed.
Your Skills & Experience
• Strong DevOps background in a SaaS or start-up environment.
• Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps, Kubernetes, and Docker.
• Proven ability to identify and manage cloud costs effectively.
• Confident communicator who can collaborate with engineers and stakeholders.
The Benefits
• Up to £480 per day (Inside IR35).
• 3-4 month contract with potential extension.
• Join at a critical point in product growth.
• Work closely with a highly skilled, tight-knit team.
