Full Job Posting
What you’ll do
- Lead and mentor cloud engineers; set ways of working, technical standards, and development practices.
- Lead cloud governance and ensure compliance with agreed architecture, security, risk, audit and operational standards.
- Oversee disaster recovery and business continuity readiness, including recovery planning, testing and remediation of identified gaps.
- Provide governance over major cloud changes and releases, ensuring production risk is understood and appropriately managed.
- Maintain lifecycle management for cloud platforms and services, including technical debt, currency, obsolescence and platform improvement planning.
- Ensure cloud documentation, operational procedures, runbooks and knowledge artefacts are maintained to an appropriate standard.
- Oversee AWS landing zones, network patterns, identity, and platform guardrails.
- Establish/manage reusable patterns (e.g., VPC, IAM, logging, monitoring, CI/CD).
- Drive Infrastructure as Code practices (e.g. CloudFormation) and automation-first delivery.
- Implement security-by-design controls (IAM, encryption, key management, patching, vulnerability management).
- Own incident response processes for cloud platform services and support post-incident reviews.
- Oversee platform operations, capacity planning, and on-call/production support arrangements.
- Lead problem management and drive root-cause fixes and platform improvements.
- Be responsible for cost management practices: tagging, budgets, forecasting, chargeback/show back.
- Optimise spend via rightsizing, savings plans/reserved instances, and participate in architectural improvements.
- Manage AWS vendor relationship where applicable, including service limits and support cases.
- Partner with Architecture, Security, Networks and Delivery teams to enable safe self-service.
- Provide clear reporting on risks, platform health, delivery progress, and cost.
- What we’re looking for
- Deep hands-on AWS experience across core services (e.g., IAM, VPC, EC2, S3, RDS, EKS/ECS, Lambda, CloudWatch).
- Proven experience with cloud transformation and modernization.
- Strong cloud security knowledge (least privilege, network segmentation, encryption, secrets management).
- Experience transitioning environments from project/migration mode into BAU managed services.
- Experience leading enterprise cloud managed services, not just project delivery.
- Experience managing senior customer stakeholders and executive-level reporting.
- Demonstrated experience building and managing cloud operating models and platform teams.
- Infrastructure as Code and automation (Terraform/CloudFormation; CI/CD tooling).
- Operational excellence: monitoring, incident management, DR, performance tuning.
- Proven technical leadership, coaching, and stakeholder management.
- Multi-account strategy and landing zone tooling (e.g., AWS Control Tower)
- Kubernetes and container platforms (EKS), service mesh, platform engineering practices.
- Observability tooling beyond native AWS (e.g., Datadog, Splunk).
- Strong commercial awareness, including cloud consumption, forecasting, optimisation and service cost management.
- Experience operating cloud environments under formal governance, risk and compliance frameworks.
- AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional (preferred)
- AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate
- Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert
- ITIL Foundation Certificate
- Why Join Us:
