Who we are and what is important to us:

Beyond unifies three technology-driven brands, Wonde, Evouchers and Secure Schools.

Each brand shares a vision to reduce the friction of adapting technology, to help customers navigate an often overwhelming area and provide powerful solutions that make their everyday life easier.

The three brands run independently with the autonomy to continue to prosper although as part of the Beyond team, you’ll join a wider, supportive environment where you’ll be able to pull on the expertise and capabilities of the group.

We do not limit ourselves to standing still. We look ahead and strive to disrupt the sector we operate in. We believe technology should not be complicated or overwhelming. It should do what it says - quickly, safely and efficiently.

Job snapshot:

As a DevOps Engineer supporting the Secure Schools brand, you’ll own the monitoring, reliability and security of our infrastructure, paying particular attention to our phishing simulator and related infrastructure.

By working closely with the other DevOps members across Beyond you will help establish the right processes and tools to ensure our infrastructure is secure, scalable, cost-effective and always available.
