Must:
We are looking for candidates who have over 5 years of experience as a Senior or Lead Cloud or Platform Engineer. You should possess hands-on expertise with Azure and Google Cloud Platform, as well as a strong background in Infrastructure as Code using tools such as Terraform and ARM Templates. A proven track record with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD) is essential, along with skills in scripting and automation (using languages like Python, Shell, Perl, or similar). Additionally, you should have knowledge of data center operations, networking, IT security, and observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, and Datadog. Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, as well as agile delivery experience, are also important for this role.

You will be responsible for automating provisioning, scaling, and configuration management. Additionally, you will lead migration and modernization projects from inception to delivery, drive best practices in cloud architecture, DevOps, and automation, and collaborate with cross-functional teams on greenfield solutions. You will also lead incident response and root-cause analysis with a focus on preventative action, mentor other engineers, and act as a trusted technical authority. Lastly, ensuring cost efficiency, security, and performance across our platforms will be a key part of your role.

Please note that we are only considering UK-based candidates for this role, as we are unable to provide sponsorship. If you have a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, experience with Oracle applications/databases, familiarity with Unix/Solaris environments, knowledge of service mesh and API gateways (such as Istio or Linkerd), or exposure to multi-cloud or hybrid infrastructures, we would consider these as desirable skills. Additionally, an understanding of DevSecOps practices and compliance will be beneficial.
