EG is a truly exciting business and a great company to work for; we use forward-thinking technology and nurture an innovation and collaboration led culture to deliver game-changing software to the property industry. We have a fantastic office in Bishopsgate, really bright and modern with a real buzz, we have genuinely talented staff with a passion for what they do, and the social side isn’t bad either!

We are looking for a Junior DevOps engineer with good CI and Delivery skills and a great aptitude to learn. You will be part of a proactive technology team built on the ethos of continuous improvement and will be offered a full training programme. This is as much about your contribution to a happy, collaborative environment, as it is technical excellence.

Our product portfolio delivers deep data insight via new web applications to leading property professionals across the UK. We work heavily with Amazon services, MEAN Stack, TeamCity, Puppet and more. As a Junior DevOps Engineer, you’ll join a cross functional team building compelling online data products, with exciting technologies – we are currently very much into Elastic and Immutable Architecture (dynamic provisioning). We have high standards. Getting through the door isn’t easy, but once you’re here you’ll get to work with some of the best technologists around.

Skills & Requirements:

Essential:

  • Aptitude and enthusiasm to learn new infrastructure as code and DevOps technologies and techniques.
  • Experience working in a DevOps / Infrastructure as code environment, ideally in the following areas (although full training can be provided):
    • Working with Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery tools in a production environment (such as TeamCity / Jenkins / GitLab CI).
    • Linux (CentOS 7 upwards preferred).
    • Automated provisioning of AWS services (especially EC2, SQS, SNS) using Terraform / CloudFormation.
    • Configuration management using tools such as Puppet / Chef.
  • Good scripting skills (Bash, Python etc.).

    • AWS Lambda.
    • Monitoring tools (such as Nagios).

We’re an agile, dynamic and forward thinking organisation who understand the importance of looking after our staff. We pride ourselves on delivering high-quality products, providing our employees with interesting challenges for their personal and career development whilst also striking the right balance between work and family life.

In addition to all of this we offer the following 'core' benefits:

  • 25 days holiday.
  • 2 paid charity days a year (as a business we do a lot of charity work).
  • Pension and life assurance schemes.
  • Save As You Earn Share Scheme (SAYE).
  • Competitive Salaries.

It’s worth noting that whilst EG is a hugely successful brand in its own right, it’s also part of RBA and the FTSE100 RELX Group, powerhouses in the global digital world and hugely respected tech-driven businesses. This means that we’re able to offer the best-of-both-words, a close-knit, collegial, flexible and dynamic team but with the stability, investment, benefits and career opportunities that go with being part of a growing global organisation.

EG is a truly exciting business and a great company to work for; we use forward-thinking technology and nurture an innovation and collaboration led culture to deliver game-changing software to the property industry. We have a fantastic office in Bishopsgate, really bright and modern with a real buzz, we have genuinely talented staff with a passion for what they do, and the social side isn’t bad either!

We are looking for a Junior DevOps engineer with good CI and Delivery skills and a great aptitude to learn. You will be part of a proactive technology team built on the ethos of continuous improvement and will be offered a full training programme. This is as much about your contribution to a happy, collaborative environment, as it is technical excellence.

Our product portfolio delivers deep data insight via new web applications to leading property professionals across the UK. We work heavily with Amazon services, MEAN Stack, TeamCity, Puppet and more. As a Junior DevOps Engineer, you’ll join a cross functional team building compelling online data products, with exciting technologies – we are currently very much into Elastic and Immutable Architecture (dynamic provisioning). We have high standards. Getting through the door isn’t easy, but once you’re here you’ll get to work with some of the best technologists around.

Skills & Requirements:

Essential:

  • Aptitude and enthusiasm to learn new infrastructure as code and DevOps technologies and techniques.
  • Experience working in a DevOps / Infrastructure as code environment, ideally in the following areas (although full training can be provided):
    • Working with Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery tools in a production environment (such as TeamCity / Jenkins / GitLab CI).
    • Linux (CentOS 7 upwards preferred).
    • Automated provisioning of AWS services (especially EC2, SQS, SNS) using Terraform / CloudFormation.
    • Configuration management using tools such as Puppet / Chef.
  • Good scripting skills (Bash, Python etc.).
  • Experience with source code management tools (e.g. Git).
  • Used to working in a team environment with good interpersonal skills.

Desirable:

  • Experience with:
    • Agile and Lean methodologies.
    • Mongo DB.
    • Node.js ecosystem.
    • Docker / Kubernetes.
    • Elastic Search.
    • ELK Stack.
    • AWS Lambda.
    • Monitoring tools (such as Nagios).

What’s it like to work here?

Outstanding - you’ve probably already got a feel for what we do and the technology we’re involved with but what differentiates us from the crowd is our culture. We’re an agile, dynamic and forward thinking organisation who understand the importance of looking after our staff. We pride ourselves on delivering high-quality products, providing our employees with interesting challenges for their personal and career development whilst also striking the right balance between work and family life.

In addition to all of this we offer the following 'core' benefits:

  • 25 days holiday.
  • 2 paid charity days a year (as a business we do a lot of charity work).
  • Pension and life assurance schemes.
  • Save As You Earn Share Scheme (SAYE).
  • Competitive Salaries.

It’s worth noting that whilst EG is a hugely successful brand in its own right, it’s also part of RBA and the FTSE100 RELX Group, powerhouses in the global digital world and hugely respected tech-driven businesses. This means that we’re able to offer the best-of-both-words, a close-knit, collegial, flexible and dynamic team but with the stability, investment, benefits and career opportunities that go with being part of a growing global organisation.
