• Deliver strategic platform initiatives including cloud migration, Kubernetes platform uplift, Infrastructure-as-Code adoption, and self-service developer platforms.
• Drive platform reliability through observability, monitoring, logging, alerting, automation, and continuous service improvement.
• Embed secure-by-design principles and ensure platform services meet security, compliance, resilience, and governance requirements.
• Provide technical leadership, mentoring, and guidance to engineers while promoting best practices across cloud, automation, and platform engineering.
• Collaborate with Architecture, Cyber Security, and delivery teams to deliver scalable, reliable, and well-governed technology outcomes.

What you will bring:

• 7+ years' experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering within large-scale enterprise environments.
• Strong hands-on expertise with AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitOps practices, and modern CI/CD tooling.
• Experience delivering platform modernisation programs such as cloud transformation, container platform adoption, and infrastructure automation initiatives.
• Knowledge of observability and monitoring technologies including tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Elastic, or similar platforms.
• Strong scripting and automation skills using technologies such as Python, Bash, Go, or equivalent.
• Experience with configuration management at scale with Ansible, Puppet, Chef or similar.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence technical decisions, mentor peers, and translate complex technical concepts into practical business outcomes.
