This is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about building CI on top of modern infrastructure that supports our complex codebase, enabling us to deliver successfully.

 

We work with modern CI tools (such as gitlab) and build systems (such as bazel) and much more to create a productive, intuitive and easy to use infrastructure solution which is used by hundreds of engineers across the globe.

 

In this role, you will collaborate closely with engineers and partners across the organization to develop efficient, fast CI which gives us accurate and timely feedback, allowing everyone to make more informed decisions about their day to day engineering, as well as helping us all understand our code stability quickly and easily.

Cloud‑Computing Jobs for Non‑Technical Professionals: Where Do You Fit In?

Your Head in the (Right) Cloud Every major UK organisation—from the NHS to Formula 1 teams—now relies on cloud platforms to ship software, crunch data and delight customers. Amazon Web Services’ £8 billion data‑centre expansion alone is forecast to support 14,000 jobs per year and add £14 billion to GDP by 2028. Yet most headlines still spotlight DevOps engineers and Kubernetes gurus, leading many professionals to ask, “Is there a place for me if I don’t write code?” The answer is a resounding yes. Research by CompTIA shows net tech employment in Britain will rise another 1.7 % in 2024, and cloud skills top employers’ wish‑lists. Crucially, hiring managers say that around 40 % of cloud vacancies centre on governance, product, finance and client‑facing disciplines rather than hands‑on infrastructure. This guide reveals the fastest‑growing non‑technical roles, the transferable skills you already possess, and an actionable roadmap to join the UK’s booming cloud economy—no YAML files required.
