DevOps Engineer

Why This Role

Avyre is one of the most experienced DAM and content operations consultancies in the market. For over two decades, we’ve helped global enterprises transform complex content and digital asset ecosystems into scalable operational platforms.

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to strengthen the infrastructure, automation, and operational reliability behind these solutions. Within our IT team, you will own infrastructure and deployment processes supporting Avyre’s internal systems and client environments, helping ensure they are secure, stable, and ready for delivery.

You will work closely with Technical Services, developers, QA, project managers, and client technology teams to automate deployments, improve reliability, and resolve complex operational challenges. This role offers the opportunity to shape DevOps practices across enterprise engagements while combining hands-on engineering with technical ownership and mentoring.
