At EDITED, DevOps is important, and the whole team is committed to good practice. you’ll work with the rest of the team to make sure everything's running smoothly. This isn’t an isolated role (we won’t be locking you in the data centre) so we’re looking for someone who values collaboration and knowledge sharing.
