Key Responsibilities

- Provision and manage secure, resilient, scalable infrastructure underpinning MES platforms, keeping availability and performance high
- Manage MES platforms (Emerson Syncade experience preferred) — deployments, configuration, patching, upgrades, and day-to-day operational support
- Set and enforce development standards, branching strategy, code review practice, release governance, and change control suited to a regulated manufacturing setting
- Work alongside software engineering, QA, MES vendors, system integrators, and business stakeholders to deliver automated deployments and infrastructure-as-code
- Build automated testing and quality gates into CI/CD pipelines with QA, pushing shift-left testing and stronger release quality
- Stand up monitoring, logging, and alerting to stay ahead of platform health and performance issues
- Underpin CSV, audit readiness, disaster recovery, and business continuity with compliant documentation and deployment records
- Drive ongoing improvement across the delivery lifecycle, clearing deployment bottlenecks and tracking progress via metrics
- Serve as technical authority and escalation point for complex infrastructure, deployment, and operational issues
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience as a DevOps Lead or Senior DevOps Engineer on complex enterprise programme
- Hands-on development background with a strong grasp of the SDLC and modern DevOps practice
- Solid CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, automation, and scripting skills
- Experience managing enterprise application environments — release management, configuration management, infrastructure provisioning
- Strong background supporting MES platforms, ideally Emerson Syncade, across deployment, configuration, upgrades, and operational support
- Experience in regulated pharma/life sciences environments preferred, with working knowledge of GxP, CSV, and GAMP 5
- Familiarity with MES integrations into SAP, LIMS, and historian systems, plus containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes)
