Up to £80,000 + benefits We're partnered exclusively with a Fintech business in Manchester who've been building their own SaaS platform for 10 years.

They're hiring a DevSecOps Engineer to sit at that intersection between security and engineering. This isn't a pure security role, and it's not a pure DevOps role. It's for someone who's genuinely comfortable in both worlds - someone who understands pipelines, infrastructure, and tooling, and knows how to embed security into them without grinding everything to a halt. You'll be working with DevOps, Platform, and Security teams to integrate security tooling into CI/CD, automate vulnerability detection, manage cloud security controls, and help engineering teams ship quickly without cutting corners. In a regulated Fintech environment, this role carries real weight. Key skills needed: • Hands-on DevSecOps or Security Engineering experience in a cloud-native environment, • Strong CI/CD experience - GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar - and the ability to integrate security gates properly, • SAST, DAST, and SCA tooling - Snyk, Checkov, Trivy, Semgrep, or similar, • Infrastructure as Code - Terraform, CloudFormation - and identifying misconfigs before they hit production, • Container and Kubernetes security - image scanning, runtime security, network policies, • Cloud security experience - primarily GCP, with some AWS exposure also useful, • Secret management - HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or similar, • Knowledge of Fintech compliance requirements - PCI-DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, • Scripting skills - Python, Bash, or similar, • Someone who can translate between security and engineering teams, and is respected by both This is the highest-paid role in this hiring round for a reason. They want someone exceptional. If you're a DevSecOps engineer who's done with security being treated as a checkbox, and you want to work somewhere that's actually building it in from day one, this is the one to go for.

Description A senior engineering leader who is responsible for the technical health, delivery performance, and professional development of their team. The Tech Lead is the primary engineering owner for one or more teams — setting technical direction, building culture, and bridging the gap between engineering and the broader organisation. Tech Leads are expected to actively drive AI-native culture within their team and model best practice for everyone they manage. The step from Technical Project Lead to Tech Lead is the most significant transition in the engineering career path. The TPL role is delivery-focused; the Tech Lead role adds sustained people leadership, team design, and function-level accountability. You are no longer primarily measured by what you build or what your project delivers — you are measured by the health and capability of your team over time. This means investing in people who may not yet be performing, having difficult conversations, and sometimes slowing down delivery to get the team architecture right. It is a fundamentally different role, and the instincts that made you a great TPL will need to evolve. Hands-on contribution remains significant. Approximately 60% of time is spent on direct technical work — coding, design, review, and architectural decision-making — and 40% on line management, stakeholder communication, hiring, and engineering strategy. This reflects Ignite’s current scale and the importance of Tech Lead technical credibility. Responsibilities • Own the technical health of one or more delivery teams: architecture, standards, quality, and culture, • Line manage up to 6 engineers directly or up to 10 indirectly, including regular 1:1s, objective setting, development support, and performance management, • Make or delegate architectural decisions with confidence, maintaining long-term codebase coherence, • Balance hands-on technical contribution with management and leadership responsibilities, • Drive quality and delivery standards across the team, setting clear expectations and holding them consistently, • Contribute to sprint planning and prioritisation alongside the Programme Manager and Analysts, • Lead incident response for the team, ensuring post-mortems produce systemic improvements and address root causes, • Represent engineering in stakeholder conversations, communicating clearly on delivery status, technical risk, and capacity, • Partner with the Head of Engineering on resourcing, team design, and delivery strategy, • Contribute to hiring by defining role requirements, leading technical interviews, and making recommendations, • Support the development of Senior Engineers towards greater leadership capability, • Operate with commercial awareness, understanding the revenue and margin implications of technical decisions, • Contribute to cross-function engineering strategy and platform-wide architectural decisions, • Develop or contribute to the Ignite repeatability and AI-native agenda, • Contribute to hiring strategy and team design conversations with the Head of Engineering, • Carry full line management responsibility for direct reports, including probation management and formal performance processes, • Support pay review and promotion recommendations to the Head of Engineering, • Manage indirect accountability for QA leads and their reports within the Ignite structure AI Leadership Responsibilities • Actively use and champion coding harnesses, building team-level harnesses that standardize AI usage for common tasks, • Understand AI agents at an implementation level, including design, risks, and appropriate usage, • Understand and work with skills as reusable AI capabilities, • Have a strong working knowledge of MCP (Model Context Protocol), including tool access, context management, and security implications, • Set expectations for AI tool use within the team, defining what is encouraged, what requires review, and where human verification is required, • Stay current with the AI tooling landscape and share relevant developments with the Head of Engineering Qualifications • Languages: TypeScript and C#/.NET (sufficient depth to review and guide work in both stacks), • Frontend: Vue.js (Customer Portal stack — review and governance level), • Databases: SQL Server, PostgreSQL (design, performance, governance), • Cloud & Infrastructure: Azure (architecture, cost management, security posture), • Container Orchestration: Kubernetes (operational and governance level), • CI/CD: GitHub Actions, GitOps (ownership and governance), • Security: ISO 27001 controls implementation and penetration test coordination, • Tooling: Linear, Git/GitHub, Copilot, monitoring and alerting platforms

Company Description Sputnik is a digital transformation agency. We design and build innovative websites, digital products and applications for enterprise clients. At the foundation of every project we deliver are a delightful and intuitive user experience, combined with secure, scalable and optimised engineering. Our projects range from best-in-class websites to bespoke inventory management systems and customer portals. Our team have helped deliver robust web applications for great brands including GoCompare, Swinton Insurance, Fluent Money and Axelos. We're looking for a developer who can get involved in projects right the way through the DevOps process, including business analysis, architecture, development and deployment. Role Description Sputnik Digital is seeking a skilled .NET Developer for a full-time hybrid role based in Manchester, with the flexibility for some work-from-home arrangements. The role involves designing, developing, and maintaining high-quality software solutions using .NET technologies to meet client needs. Day-to-day tasks include coding, debugging, and testing applications, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and ensuring the performance, reliability, and scalability of applications. Joining us as a .NET developer, you will bring solid experience in C#, .NET Core and TypeScript, along with the ability to architect, develop and deploy new projects as well as maintain existing systems across both Azure and AWS environments. We expect you to bring a strong engineering foundation, but we also expect you to leverage modern AI tooling to work broadly and effectively across the full stack. The boundaries of what a single developer can contribute have shifted, and we look for people who embrace that. You'll bring with you a great understanding of object oriented programming, test-driven development, cloud architecture and databases. While this certainly isn't a front-end role, an appreciation of front-end frameworks and technologies is a real advantage. We appreciate that's a big ask — but if you combine strong coding experience, practical problem solving skills and an enthusiasm for the latest in cloud and AI-powered development, you're probably the person we want to speak to.
