Thales is a global technology leader with more than 83,000 employees on five continents. With over 7,500 people in the UK, operating across defence, space, aerospace, and digital security, we help build a future we can all trust. Thales supports the security and stability of our nation by providing extraordinary technology to our customers, as well as delivering social value to the UK with our products and services.
This role focuses on delivering and supporting secure, automated, Linux‑based server hosting services for internal and external Thales customers. You will work across the full lifecycle of backend infrastructure — from design and build through to automation, configuration management, and ongoing operational support — within a highly controlled, air‑gapped environment.
A strong DevOps mindset is essential. You will use tools such as Ansible , Terraform , Red Hat Enterprise Linux , and Satellite to deliver consistent, repeatable, and secure infrastructure services. The role requires balancing customer needs, security constraints, and delivery timelines while maintaining high‑quality documentation and adherence to defined processes.
You will contribute to both project delivery and through‑life support, working collaboratively with engineering, security, and platform teams to evolve our private cloud and automation capabilities.
