RapidFort, Inc., United Kingdom +1
Location: United Kingdom — 100% Remote. Preference will be given to candidates based in London or the surrounding area. Employment Type: Full-time Team: DevOps / Site Reliability Engineering Role Type: Individual Contributor Experience: Minimum 5 years of relevant hands-on experience; typically 5–7+ years
This is a hands-on individual contributor position for an engineer who can independently investigate production issues, manage deployments, respond to incidents, and take ownership of operational requests.
You will support the day-to-day operation of our platform while improving automation, monitoring, documentation, and operational processes. You should be comfortable troubleshooting beyond documented runbooks, gathering diagnostic evidence, and exercising sound judgment about remediation and escalation.
You will work closely with our DevOps, SRE, and Development teams within a follow-the-sun operational model, initially covering India and Europe. This position supports scheduled European coverage and participates in an on-call rotation.
Kubernetes Troubleshooting
You must be comfortable using Kubernetes tooling to investigate problems and explain your findings. This includes:
We are looking for practical understanding: the ability to explain what you are checking, interpret the evidence, and decide what to do next.
Experience with one major cloud platform is sufficient. Strong Linux, Kubernetes, and Bash skills are essential; experience with every additional technology listed is not required.
This is an individual contributor role with no direct people management responsibilities. A specific degree or professional certification is not required.
Career Development
As your understanding of RapidFort’s platform grows, you will have opportunities to expand your technical ownership across cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, CI/CD, automation, observability, and reliability engineering.
Progression can remain on an individual contributor path, with increasing technical scope and responsibility.
Location: You must be based in the United Kingdom. This position is fully remote.
Work Authorisation: You must already have the right to work in the United Kingdom. RapidFort cannot provide visa sponsorship for this position.
Schedule: The role includes scheduled European operational coverage and an on-call rotation. Occasional work outside normal hours may be required for incidents or planned operational activities. Coverage hours, on-call frequency, and applicable compensation or time-off arrangements will be discussed during the interview process.
Interview Process
The interview process includes a practical technical assessment covering Linux troubleshooting, Kubernetes operations, Bash scripting, and production incident scenarios.
Candidates will be expected to demonstrate a structured investigation, explain their choice of commands, interpret diagnostic output, and identify appropriate remediation or escalation steps.
RapidFort helps organisations secure their software supply chains, reduce software vulnerabilities, and minimise the attack surface of containerised applications.
We are looking for an experienced Cloud Operations Engineer with strong Linux, Kubernetes, and Bash skills to support the production and delivery environments behind our SaaS platform.
