Your expert technical knowledge will enable you to provide leadership and guidance through coaching and mentoring, and increasing the capability of up to 20 DevOps engineers.
An important part of this role is your responsibility to develop your team's capability, helping to shape our community and recruit the right talent by identifying skills gaps and important dependencies within technical teams.
