As DevOps and Platform Engineer, you'll own the cloud platform our products run on, across Azure and AWS. This is a build-and-run role: you'll design the platform, automate it, keep it secure, and make releases routine. You'll work closely with the product engineers and the AI & Cloud Architect, and you'll have real ownership of the deployment path to production.
Key Responsibilities
• Author, review, and apply infrastructure as code in Bicep and Terraform, with every plan or what-if reviewed before apply.
• Build and maintain CI/CD in GitHub Actions using federated (OIDC) credentials rather than stored secrets.
• Run containerised workloads on Azure Container Apps and AWS container services, releasing immutable image versions.
• Own identity, secrets, and network security for the platform, with least-privilege access throughout.
• Build observability that tells the truth, covering logs, metrics, alerting, and health checks.
• Keep production and non-production environments properly separated and free of configuration drift.
• Produce evidence for ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 controls as part of normal work.
Must-Have Skills and Experience
• 10+ years in DevOps, platform, or cloud infrastructure engineering, running production workloads on both Azure and AWS.
• Hands-on infrastructure as code with Terraform and Bicep, including the discipline of reviewing every plan or what-if before applying.
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions, including federated (OIDC) authentication to Azure and AWS.
• Experience running containerised workloads in production, such as on Azure Container Apps, Amazon ECS, or EKS, with immutable, versioned images.
• Practical depth in cloud identity, secrets management, and network security, applied with least privilege.
• Experience building observability with logs, metrics, alerting, and health checks, using tools such as Azure Monitor, CloudWatch, or Grafana.
• Experience working under security or compliance controls and producing evidence auditors can rely on.
Desirable Skills
• A recognised certification such as Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ-400), AWS Certified DevOps Engineer Professional, or Terraform Associate.
• Kubernetes experience.
• Experience supporting ISO 27001 or ISO 42001 audits or working with a compliance automation platform.
• Experience running AI workloads, such as model gateways and vector databases.
• Experience with cloud cost management (FinOps).
Education
A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
What Success Looks Like
• Releases are routine: product engineers deploy to production confidently, without manual steps or late-night fixes.
• Every infrastructure change goes through reviewed code, environments stay separated with no configuration drift, and control evidence comes out of normal work.
• There are no long-lived stored secrets, and access across the platform is least-privilege and easy to audit.
• Your observability catches problems before customers do, and alerts are trusted rather than ignored.
