Full Job Posting

Key Responsibilities

  • Take ownership of larger, moderately complex pieces of platform work, setting objectives and delivering against project goals with a direct impact on team results.
  • Design, implement and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure patterns and reusable Terraform modules across Azure, AWS and OCI, with a primary focus on Azure.
  • Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) libraries to ensure consistent, compliant and repeatable environments across all cloud providers.
  • Build and support CI/CD and deployment automation using GitHub Actions, Octopus Deploy and ArgoCD, and configuration management using Ansible and Octopus Deploy.
  • Support and enable development delivery teams – provisioning autonomous environments and reducing deployment friction while maintaining guardrails and separation of duties.
  • Provide operational support for containerised and micro-service workloads on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), maintaining high availability and reliability.
  • Manage core infrastructure lifecycle tasks – vulnerability remediation and patching, upgrades, scaling and decommissioning across the Windows and Linux estate.
  • Drive the adoption of cloud governance policies, security standards and architectural best practice, and help maintain continuous compliance evidence against the firm’s obligations (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, DORA).
  • Contribute to observability and monitoring across the estate, and to incident response and on-call, including troubleshooting and root cause analysis that drives systemic improvement.
  • Support disaster recovery testing to validate recovery plans and ensure rapid, reliable restoration of services.
  • Identify and recommend improvements to systems, processes and infrastructure patterns to improve operational resilience, performance and cost efficiency.
  • Explain and advocate technical approaches to development delivery teams and colleagues across IT, influencing platform practices and standards at an operational level.
  • Provide guidance, code review and support to junior engineers, helping them develop across the platform.
  • Document infrastructure blueprints, standards and standard operating procedures in Confluence and our internal Platform Portal to enable self-service.
  • Participate in the on-call rota to support critical infrastructure services.
  • Essential Knowledge & Experience
  • Bachelor’s degree (e.g. B.E./B.Tech) in Computer Science, IT or a related field, or equivalent practical experience, with a minimum of three years’ experience as a Platform Engineer, Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, DevOps Engineer or similar role.
  • Strong experience designing and implementing infrastructure in Azure and AWS.
  • Deep, hands-on expertise with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform.
  • Experience building and debugging CI/CD and deployment pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions, Octopus Deploy, Azure DevOps or similar).
  • Strong Windows OS management in cloud environments; solid Linux fundamentals (deeper experience a plus).
  • Proficient in a scripting language such as PowerShell, with experience automating operational workflows.
  • Sound understanding of cloud security principles, identity and access management (Entra ID / IAM) and network security.
  • Understanding of application architectures and CI/CD workflows, and how infrastructure aligns with them.
  • Experience working closely with development delivery teams in an agile environment, using tooling such as Jira and Confluence to manage and track work.
  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders.
  • AI-literate, with the ability to adopt and apply AI-assisted engineering tooling (e.g. GitHub Copilot, AI coding assistants and agents) to accelerate delivery, automation and documentation, and a willingness to keep pace with an evolving AI toolset.
  • Able to manage multiple concurrent workstreams – balancing project delivery, BAU and support commitments – prioritising effectively and working independently across competing demands.
  • Comfortable collaborating with UK-based colleagues across time zones as part of a global team.
  • Able to participate in the on-call rota – on-call is a requirement of this role.
  • Desirable
  • Experience operating in a regulated financial services or otherwise highly governed environment.
  • Certification in Azure, AWS or DevOps practices.
  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes (AKS), ArgoCD and containerised services.
  • Experience with Ansible for configuration management and DR tooling.
  • Familiarity with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
  • Knowledge of FinOps and cloud cost-management best practice.
  • Experience integrating AI or agentic tooling into engineering workflows (e.g. IaC generation, automated remediation, or documentation).
  • Exposure to compliance-evidence or governance tooling and incident-management tooling.
  • Additional Information
  • Participation in the on-call rota is a requirement of this role; standing on-call allowances apply.
  • Opportunities for professional growth, including certifications in Azure, AWS and DevOps practices, within a deliberately cross-skilled team.
  • You will join a global, collaborative team that values innovation, ownership and continuous learning, with a direct impact on the resilience of the firm’s platforms.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree (e.g. B.E./B.Tech) in Computer Science, IT or a related field, or equivalent practical experience, with a minimum of three years’ experience as a Platform Engineer, Cloud Infrastructure Engineer, DevOps Engineer or similar role.
  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes (AKS), ArgoCD and containerised services.
