Equal Experts is an innovative consultancy specialising in the delivery of custom software solutions for
blue-chip enterprise and public sector clients across a range of industry sectors. We work on important
projects for our clients, deliver market-leading propositions across the digital, online and mobile
channels, and are recognised for our leadership in the application of agile and lean delivery methods to
assure delivery. We have offices in Australia, India, South Africa, the UK, the EU and the USA.

 

We see operability as a fundamental tenet of our approach to building and delivering software. The
reasoning? The role is not simply about facilitating the continuous delivery of quality software; we focus
on the operational requirements we deliver to ensure that software runs in production, as desired.
Our Operability Engineers draw on all their experience of DevOps practices in what’s a very hands-on,
collaborative role – actively pairing with others to share knowledge and increase the delivery team’s
maturity around Operability.

 

This role involves working in teams that use modern agile technical practices - including continuous
integration and deployment and fast feedback loops - to deliver timely and pragmatic solutions, as well
as helping others to do their jobs in a more effective way.

 

Responsibilities
● Influence, collaborate, and manage expectations with immediate stakeholders and the team.
● Build with consideration for the customer's ability to support and maintain the software.
● Provide support and leadership by mentoring client team members.
● Clearly communicate technical concepts or ideas to any audience.
● Demonstrate strong problem-solving skills and the ability to adapt to changing environments.

 

Required Skills
● Open and capable of pair or mob programming. Can work closely with developers in cross-functional teams.
● Programming language and coding experience (e.g., able to build a simple service with automated tests).
● Strong automation skills, including experience with unit testing and automated testing tools.
● Delivers small pieces of work continuously. Prefers shorter feedback loops and aims for all work to go to production.
● Understands when and why to use a branching strategy and recognizes when a branching strategy has gone too far.
● Strong technical background in build, release, and environments, with experience and expertise in software build tools, CI tools like Jenkins, Gitlab, and Github Actions.
● Strong knowledge of Linux and/or Windows. Comfortable working on the command line.
● Solid understanding of Cloud Computing providers (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) and experience with functions, containers, and virtual machines.
● Familiarity with infrastructure provisioning tools (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, Azure ARM,Pulumi).
● Understanding of telemetry practices (monitoring, graphing, alerting, anomaly detection) and tools (e.g., Elastic, Grafana, Datadog, Sensu, Prometheus).
● Proficient in network implementation, debugging network issues, and collaborating with networking teams to build and maintain networks.
● Experience running, operating, and supporting software in production.

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in Equal Experts’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.


Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
