  • You'll have demonstrable experience with one or more automation platforms (e.g. Ansible, Jenkins etc.)
  • You'll want flexibility and a great work environment, and an organisation that can deliver on this.
  • If you're based outside the Manawatu, you'll be open to periodic travel to be onsite with the team to get some good face time.
  • Teamwork and values will be important to you, and you'll want to belong to a culture that supports and encourages everyone.
