- Create and manage non-production environments to validate changes, patches, and new features before estate-wide rollout.

- Standardise and automate till provisioning, configuration management, and software deployments across the estate using VBS and PowerShell.

- Patch and maintain the OS and application layers, ensuring systems are hardened and aligned with security and architectural principles.

- Drive proactive monitoring and observability, using data to identify and fix issues before they impact the customer checkout experience.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
