Our customers include the Premier League, the International Olympic Committee, the NHL, the PGA Tour, ITN and The Independent, and our platform underpins Reuters Connect, the marketplace through which Reuters and its content partners deliver news video to thousands of media organisations worldwide.\nThe Reuters Imagen DevOps team deploys, operates and extends those customer platforms. We work across AWS and Azure, automate everything we reasonably can, and build the bespoke integrations that connect each customer's platform to the systems and partners around it. We are the people who get a new content partner from \"we've agreed a deal\" to \"their video is live on Reuters Connect\".\nKey Responsibilities:\nLearn to deploy, configure, troubleshoot and maintain Imagen platform installations across multiple cloud environments, and become confident diagnosing issues across the full stack - application, database, storage, network and infrastructure.\nOnboard new Reuters content partners onto our platforms: configuring ingest pipelines, writing and testing XSLT mappings that transform partner metadata into the format Imagen ingests, and validating that content reaches Reuters Connect correctly.\nIntegrate customer Imagen systems with Reuters Connect, following an established procedure covering platform configuration, API credentials, storage, workflows and delivery profiles.\nMaintain and extend infrastructure as code in Terraform, and the CI/CD pipelines that deploy our serverless ingest functions.\nBuild the bespoke automation that surrounds a customer platform: watch folders and event-driven ingest pipelines, integrations against customer and third-party APIs, and scripts in Python and PowerShell that automate work which would otherwise be manual.\nInvestigate failed ingests and platform incidents using logs, metrics and API responses, resolve them, and feed the fix back into code or documentation so it does not recur.\nPlan and run media migrations, moving large archives and their metadata between platforms and storage providers, and support the decommissioning of legacy systems.\nDocument what you build and what you learn, on our internal wiki and in the repositories you work in.\nWork directly with Reuters content partner managers and internal stakeholders to understand requests, agree what is needed, and keep them informed\nRequired Qualifications:\nThis is a junior role. We expect you to have some hands-on exposure to the areas below, not deep expertise in all of them - through a placement, an apprenticeship, a first technical role, a degree, or serious self-taught projects. Curiosity and a methodical approach to problems matter more to us than a complete checklist.\nWorking knowledge of at least one major public cloud (AWS or Azure) and a genuine interest in learning the other. We use both regularly, and dabble in others.\nScripting ability in PowerShell and/or Python, and the willingness to become comfortable in both.\nFamiliarity with SQL and relational databases (we use MySQL/MariaDB), enough to read and write queries against a live system.\nVersion control with Git, and an understanding of branching and pull request review.\nComfortable working with structured data formats - XML, JSON - and calling REST APIs.\nStrong analytical and troubleshooting skills, with the discipline to isolate a problem rather than guess at it.\nClear written and verbal communication, including with non-technical stakeholders, and the confidence to ask questions early.\nGood organisational skills, with the ability to manage several pieces of work and keep people updated on progress.\nPreferred Qualifications:\nAny of the following would be an advantage, and everything here is something you will learn with us if you do not have it already:\nInfrastructure as code, ideally Terraform.\nCI/CD pipelines, ideally GitHub Actions.\nXSLT and XPath, or experience transforming data between schemas.\nWindows Server administration, IIS, and Linux fundamentals.\nCore AWS services: EC2, S3, Lambda, SQS, IAM, Secrets Manager, CloudWatch.\nNetworking fundamentals: DNS, TLS and certificates, firewalls, VPNs, load balancing.\nContainers and orchestration (Kubernetes/EKS/AKS).\nWeb server configuration (Apache).\nMonitoring, alerting and log analysis.\nAn interest in video and media technology - codecs, containers, transcoding and delivery formats. No prior media industry experience is required; we will teach you this side of the domain.\nWhat’s in it For You?\nHybrid Work Model: We’ve adopted a flexible hybrid working environment (2-3 days a week in the office depending on the role) for our office-based roles while delivering a seamless experience that is digitally and physically connected.\n\nFlexibility & Work-Life Balance: Flex My Way is a set of supportive workplace policies designed to help manage personal and professional responsibilities, whether caring for family, giving back to the community, or finding time to refresh and reset. This builds upon our flexible work arrangements, including work from anywhere for up to 8 weeks per year, empowering employees to achieve a better work-life balance.\n\nCareer Development and Growth: By fostering a culture of continuous learning and skill development, we prepare our talent to tackle tomorrow’s challenges and deliver real-world solutions. Our Grow My Way programming and skills-first approach ensures you have the tools and knowledge to grow, lead, and thrive in an AI-enabled future.\n\nIndustry Competitive Benefits: We offer comprehensive benefit plans to include flexible vacation, two company-wide Mental Health Days off, access to the Headspace app, retirement savings, tuition reimbursement, employee incentive programs, and resources for mental, physical, and financial wellbeing.\n\nCulture: Globally recognized, award-winning reputation for inclusion and belonging, flexibility, work-life balance, and more. We live by our values: Obsess over our Customers, Compete to Win, Challenge (Y)our Thinking, Act Fast / Learn Fast, and Stronger Together.\n\nSocial Impact: Make an impact in your community with our Social Impact Institute. We offer employees two paid volunteer days off annually and opportunities to get involved with pro-bono consulting projects and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives.\n\nMaking a Real-World Impact: We are one of the few companies globally that helps its customers pursue justice, truth, and transparency.
