Linux Engineer – Zurich, Switzerland/ Hybrid
(Key skills: Linux System Engineering, Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD Automation, GitOps, Observability, Cloud-Native Platforms, Linux Administration (Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS), Service Discovery, Load Balancing, Helm / ArgoCD, Monitoring & Logging Tools, Platform Reliability, Technical Problem Solving)
Are you excited by building and operating resilient, cloud-native infrastructure where you get both freedom and responsibility to influence the technology stack? Are you someone who thrives on maintaining mission-critical systems, improving observability, and working with Kubernetes and containerised platforms? If so, this is an excellent opportunity to join a SaaS infrastructure team with real impact.
Our client, an international SaaS company expanding its European platform capabilities, is recruiting a Linux Engineer to strengthen their infrastructure engineering team. You will contribute to designing, operating and optimising containerised platforms, automating deployments, ensuring high availability, and empowering the product teams with robust infrastructure services.
In this role, you’ll be responsible for architecting, deploying and running Kubernetes-based environments and responsible for the full lifecycle of these platforms—from designing architecture through to day-to-day operations. You will operate and evolve managed services in areas like web hosting, application services, email delivery, ensuring performance, stability, and secure configuration. You’ll also drive CI/CD pipeline automation, introduce GitOps practices (Helm, ArgoCD), and ensure observability using tools like Prometheus and Grafana. You’ll take ownership for resolving complex incidents, engaging with stakeholders when issues arise, and working closely with internal teams to deliver feature enhancements and system improvements.
You should have substantial experience working in Linux administration (Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS) and be comfortable with container technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes. Experience with service discovery, load balancing, observability tooling (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana), and GitOps workflows will be expected. A methodical mindset, strong analytical skills, ability to remain calm under pressure, and effective communication will be critical. This role will also benefit from prior experience in SaaS or platform environments where uptime, security, and scalability are key.
You’ll be joining a forward-thinking, infrastructure-driven business with a culture that values continuous learning, technical craftsmanship, and scalability. You’ll have the freedom to evaluate new technologies, suggest improvements, and shape how the platform evolves.

Principal Usability Engineer – Implantable Medical Devices – Oxford
We are working with a pioneering medical technology company in Oxfordshire to recruit a Principal Usability Engineer who will lead the design and evaluation of intuitive, user-centred implantable devices. This is a rare opportunity to shape how surgical teams and clinicians interact with transformative technologies, ensuring that every touchpoint is purposeful, accessible, and grounded in real-world clinical workflows.
The role is based in Oxfordshire and offers hybrid working, with three days on-site including Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Occasional travel to partner sites across Europe will be required, so a willingness to travel is essential. This is a direct hire with a medical devices company, not a design consultancy.
You will champion usability across the full product lifecycle, from early concept development to post-market evaluation. Working closely with engineering, clinical, and design teams, you will ensure that user needs drive design decisions rather than simply meeting regulatory compliance. Your work will span formative and summative usability studies, interface refinement, and continuous evaluation of user experience across a portfolio of implantable technologies.
You will lead usability studies in clinical and simulated environments, translate user insights into actionable design inputs, and collaborate with industrial designers, software engineers, and systems teams to refine workflows and interactions. You will contribute to usability documentation for regulatory submissions, represent usability in design reviews and stakeholder presentations, and mentor internal teams while managing external partners.
To succeed in this role, you will bring a strong background in usability engineering, UX design, or human-computer interaction within regulated environments. Experience with surgical or implantable medical technologies is highly desirable. You should be confident in leading usability studies, synthesising complex user data into clear design direction, and communicating effectively across multidisciplinary teams. Familiarity with tools such as Axure, Figma, or Adobe XD is beneficial, alongside a proactive mindset and a deep empathy for users.
This is more than a technical leadership position. It is a chance to influence how innovative medical technologies are experienced in real-world clinical settings. You will be joining a company that values design thinking, continuous learning, and meaningful impact.
The role offers a competitive package including shares or equity, life assurance, pension, private healthcare, income protection, and an employer discount scheme—benefits more commonly found in larger organisations.
