Join to apply for the Senior Devops Engineer role at CDP

About CDP: CDP is a global non‑profit that runs the world’s only independent environmental disclosure system. As the founder of environmental reporting, we believe in transparency and the power of data to drive change.

About the Team:

The Dev Ops Team is responsible for enabling and supporting CDP’s engineering squads to deliver high‑quality software efficiently and reliably. Working closely with infrastructure, architecture, and engineering teams, the Dev Ops Team leads on deployment pipelines, infrastructure as code, environment management, and automation — ensuring scalable and secure delivery across the platform.

About this role:

As a Senior Dev Ops Engineer, you will play a key technical role in evolving CDP’s Dev Ops practices, working across multiple squads to design and implement tooling, pipelines, automation and infrastructure. You will act as a Dev Ops subject matter expert, mentoring engineers, collaborating with architecture and infrastructure colleagues, and helping the team scale through innovation and robust cloud‑native solutions.

What you will do:

• Collaborate with engineering, infrastructure and architecture teams across multiple squads.
• Design, implement and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using Azure Pipelines and Git Hub Actions.
• Build and manage scalable infrastructure using Terraform, applying Infrastructure‑as‑Code best practices.
• Support engineers with training, documentation and guidance to embed Dev Ops practices into squads.
• Ensure environments (Dev, SIT, UAT, Prod) are well managed, stable and aligned to best practice.
• Integrate and maintain tools for code quality and compliance, such as Sonar Cloud, Ruff, Black, and Pylint.
• Work closely with product and QA teams to align deployment strategies and release readiness.
• Optimise Azure cloud services for performance, reliability and cost efficiency.
• Automate and streamline manual tasks and recurring processes.
• Implement proactive monitoring and observability solutions to detect and resolve infrastructure and pipeline issues.
• Contribute to Dev Ops documentation, standards, and knowledge sharing.

Actively contribute to an effective and engaged team, clear on its purpose and contribution, by:

• Ensuring you know what is expected of you, through regular 1:1s, having clear objectives in place, and participating in open and honest performance and development conversations.
• Ensuring a respectful and inclusive workplace, where team members communicate openly, share knowledge so it can be used, and respect difference.
• Living the CDP Values and demonstrating the behaviours appropriate to your position.

• Strong understanding of cloud‑native services (e.g. Azure App Services, Function Apps, Container Apps).
• Experience with test automation and integration of code quality tools.
• Effective troubleshooting skills across multiple environments and systems.
• Ability to mentor others and influence Dev Ops culture across teams.
• Strong documentation, communication and collaboration skills.
