WHO WE ARE

Vector is collaborating with AWS and other leading global technology firms right here in New Zealand to work on projects that are leading the way on some of the biggest global energy challenges. In 2020, an alliance was formed between Vector and Amazon Web Services (AWS) to co-develop a cloud native data platform: Diverge. This team has evolved to become Vector Technology Services (VTS); a subsidiary of Vector, New Zealand’s largest distributor of electricity and gas.

Through our strategy of delivering commercially valuable cloud native platforms that solve real problems right now, while primed for rapid evolution in the future, we work to deliver on our vision of creating a new energy future with the following considerations:

• Decarbonisation, Decentralisation, Democratisation, Digitalisation

ABOUT THE ROLE

Due to continued success, we’re looking to expand our DevOps capability. As our new DevOps Engineer, you will support both BAU operations and drive key projects that enhance it. Our current focus is rearchitecting Diverge—our core platform—to streamline how we build, test, integrate, and deploy code. This transformation aims to improve scalability, speed up delivery, and boost release confidence.
You’ll help drive this change by improving pipelines, tightening feedback loops, and ensuring our platform stays fast, safe, and reliable as we scale. Working across squads, you’ll troubleshoot issues, remove blockers, and share knowledge to support continuous improvement.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

• Re-architecting and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, driving improvements in build speed, testing, and deployment.
• Supporting development squads in delivering new features quickly and safely, troubleshooting build and pipeline issues.
• Helping to unify how all parts of Diverge are integrated and tested, giving teams faster feedback loops.
• Collaborating in a culture that prioritises knowledge sharing, transparency, and continuous learning.
• Mentoring engineers, promoting DevOps best practices, and driving adoption of new tools and ways of working.
• Identifying and closing testing gaps to improve deployment safety and confidence.
