At Campfire Digital Services Pty Ltd, we believe technology should feel natural and effortless.

Our mission is to humanise technology by designing and delivering digital solutions that are intuitive, meaningful and easy to use. We partner with organisations across government and industry to deliver high-quality digital experiences that simply work for users and the teams behind them.

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our delivery team, bringing expertise to the design, implementation and documentation of the infrastructure and delivery practices that support our software projects.

In this role, you will build and optimise CI/CD pipelines, automate cloud infrastructure, and improve the security, reliability and scalability of production and non-production systems. You will work closely with developers, QA analysts, operations and security teams to embed security controls throughout the software delivery lifecycle, and to support deployments, some of which will take place outside regular business hours.

This role suits someone who enjoys hands‑on engineering, takes ownership of complex technical problems from design through to production and helps others build their capability. You will work independently, advise teams and clients on technical decisions, and help set engineering standards across delivery teams.

Key Responsibilities

CI/CD & Delivery Automation

Design, implement and optimise CI/CD pipelines for automated builds, testing and deployments.

Establish and document consistent build, release and configuration management practices across projects.

Work with development and QA teams to integrate automated tests and provide timely feedback on build and deployment failures.





Design and manage infrastructure as code using tools such as Terraform or AWS CloudFormation to provision consistent, repeatable environments.

Build and operate containerised environments using Docker, Kubernetes or similar tools, with a focus on scalability and resilience.

Automate configuration and operational tasks using Ansible, Chef or similar tools.

Advise teams and clients on cloud optimisation, taking financial considerations into account.

Monitoring, Reliability & Security

Define and maintain monitoring, alerting and centralised logging using tools such as Grafana or the Elastic Stack.

Use operational data to identify recurring issues and improve system reliability.

Embed security controls throughout the CI/CD lifecycle and work with security teams to address risks early.

Technical Leadership & Continuous Improvement

Mentor engineers through design discussions, code reviews and hands‑on guidance.

Identify bottlenecks in delivery workflows and improve deployment speed and reliability.

Evaluate recent tools and practices, explain the trade‑offs and help teams adopt approaches that fit their projects.

Document technical decisions, infrastructure standards and operational procedures so teams can support what they deliver.

Skills & Experience

We’re looking for someone with:





Around 5–7 years’ experience in DevOps, platform engineering, cloud engineering or a related role.

Strong experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitLab or Jenkins.

Strong experience with at least one major cloud platform, such as AWS, or Azure.

Experience with infrastructure as code, configuration management and Git-based workflows.

Practical experience with Docker or Kubernetes in production environments.

Proficiency in scripting and programming languages, such as Python, Java or Bash.

Experience with production monitoring, logging and troubleshooting across applications and infrastructure.

Working knowledge of database administration in Oracle and/or Postgres.

Experience with the use of agentic AI to support and add efficiency to the DevOps role.

A practical understanding of Agile delivery and DevSecOps practices, including how to build security controls into delivery pipelines.

The ability to own complex technical work, mentor engineers and explain technical decisions clearly to both technical, non-technical, and executive stakeholders.

Nice to Have

Experience working on government or enterprise digital projects.

Experience establishing DevOps standards and helping multiple delivery teams adopt them.

Experience using deployment and reliability metrics to guide improvements.

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering or a related field.

Relevant cloud or DevOps certification, such as AWS Certified DevOps Engineer or Microsoft Certified DevOps Engineer Expert.

Recent TOGAF certification.
