We are looking for a Dev Ops Engineer to help a major Perth-based resources company build the internal platform that powers its engineering teams. You will get real hands on time with Kubernetes, Terraform, and Git Hub Actions, building the golden paths and guardrails that let engineering squads ship products safely and quick, across cloud, OT, and edge environments. If you would rather build the platform than firefight around it, we want to hear from you.

The Project

This engagement sits inside a Tier 1 resources business's platform team, which runs the platform as an internal product. The team builds reusable capabilities, automation, and guardrails so engineering squads can deliver independently and safely, rather than reinventing infrastructure project by project. You will own defined platform components, working closely with senior engineers on design and delivery, and partnering across engineering, infrastructure, networking, security, and operations.

What You Will Do

- Build and maintain internal platform capabilities that speed up delivery and cut cognitive load for engineering teams
- Deploy, operate, and troubleshoot workloads on Kubernetes, Open Shift, or managed Kubernetes across cloud, OT, and edge environments
- Build and improve CI/CD workflows using Git Hub and Git Hub Actions, and automate provisioning and deployment using Terraform
- Implement observability across platform capabilities, including metrics, logs, traces, alerts, and dashboards
- Create runbooks, operational documentation, and reusable templates that help teams self serve




- Partner with networking, security, and infrastructure teams to keep the platform secure, compliant, and supportable

What We Are Looking For

- Hands on experience building or operating platform capabilities in a Dev Ops, SRE, cloud, or platform engineering role
- Practical experience deploying and operating workloads on Kubernetes, Open Shift, or managed Kubernetes
- AWS experience with cloud native services, and an awareness of networking, security, and cost trade offs
- Infrastructure as Code experience, Terraform preferred
- CI/CD experience using Git Hub and Git Hub Actions, or comparable tooling
- Coding ability in Python, Type Script, Bash, or Go
- Linux administration and troubleshooting across RHEL, Ubuntu, or similar distributions
- Experience with developer portals, service catalogues, or internal developer platform tooling
- Exposure to OT, edge, or network segregated environments
- Familiarity with AI/ML workloads, data intensive applications, or research engineering workflows
- Exposure to policy as code, platform governance, or Fin Ops practices
- Familiarity with DORA, SPACE, or other developer productivity measures

Why Horizon Digital

- Join a Perth-based AI and custom software consultancy working with Tier One Australian enterprises
- Get hands on with a mature internal platform team, not a greenfield side project
- Work alongside senior engineers on design and delivery from day one
- Contract engagement, Perth-based with hybrid flexibility
