We are a growing technology team based onsite in Derby, working on complex, secure, predominantly on-premise infrastructure environments. This is a hands-on engineering role where we need someone who can contribute quickly, take ownership of delivery, and work closely with the technology rather than simply escalating issues. The role is based onsite in Derby, with candidates from Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, the wider East Midlands and Birmingham considered where the commute is realistic. The package is £55,000-£65,000 depending on experience and clearance status, with standard office hours and occasional earlier starts or weekend work when project demands require it.
