DevOps Engineer in Manchester

• Cloud: Revolutionizing Airport Operations

Aero Cloud is the new-age operating system for airports aiming to grow.

Our suite includes Airport Operating Systems (AOS), PPS, and Passenger Flow Management solutions, empowering airports to gain deep insights into the movement of passengers and aircraft around the world.

We achieve this by becoming the airport’s first call for technology.

Whether in times of need or growth, we stand alongside our clients, offering support through innovative software that drives their success.

Our Commitment to Excellence

At Aero Cloud, being the airport’s first call means exceeding expectations at every customer interaction.

This is not just a goal; it’s our standard.

We prioritize detail, diligence, and a proactive approach in everything we do.

If there’s a task to be completed, we see it through.

If a customer needs an answer we don’t yet have, we respond promptly to let them know we’re on it.

We believe in keeping our team informed, being transparent, and maintaining accountability at every step.

About The Role

Aero Cloud runs airport operations on an AWS-native platform, built in Type Script across frontend and backend.

Infrastructure is managed as code, delivery is continuous, and we expect the platform to keep proving itself in live airport environments, not just in a demo.

We're adding a Dev Ops Engineer to the team to keep pace with that.

You'll work alongside our existing Dev Ops engineer, splitting a workload that's grown past what one person should be carrying.

Responsibilities

• Writing and maintaining infrastructure as code (AWS CDK and Terraform)
• Building and improving CI/CD pipelines across our services
• Scripting and automating the parts of delivery that shouldn't need a human
• AWS service work: ECS, Lambda, SQS/SNS, Event Bridge, Cognito
• Observability: instrumentation, alerting, and making sure the platform tells you when something's wrong before a customer does
• Supporting deployments and troubleshooting issues across environments
• Improving developer experience so the rest of engineering ships faster and safer
• Our Stack
• AWS (ECS, Lambda, SQS/SNS, Event Bridge, Cognito)
• AWS CDK and Terraform
• Type Script
• CI/CD tooling as used across the engineering org
• Observability and monitoring tooling
• What We’re Looking For
• You automate the thing instead of doing it manually a third time
• You write infrastructure as code because it's the only way you'd trust it in production, not because you were told to
• You debug with logs, traces, and metrics before you guess
• You leave pipelines and tooling better than you found them
• You work well alongside another engineer on shared infrastructure without needing everything handed to you

What We Offer

• Competitive salary
• Best in Class Share Options scheme
• 25 days PTO + statutory holidays
• Take your birthday off work on us as well
• Extensive upskilling and training
• Digital Nomad Scheme
