Job Summary
Understands cloud platforms and the software delivery lifecycle, including where security, quality, and governance controls belong.
Approaches work with an automation-first mindset and keeps cloud services and processes consistent and well documented.
Writes structured, maintainable code and treats infrastructure and platform work as proper engineering.
Takes ownership, follows work through to completion, and raises issues early.
Keeps up with fast-moving AI developments and applies them pragmatically to improve how the team works.
Responsibilities:
Cloud Platform, Kubernetes & Operations
Build and operate shared cloud platform services on Microsoft Azure, with a focus on reliability, scalability, security, and operational consistency.
Run and evolve the cloud-hosted Kubernetes platform, including deployment workflows, platform services, monitoring, and security controls.
Define service level objectives for platform services, build monitoring and alerting, respond to incidents, and lead blameless post-incident reviews.
Automation, Infrastructure as Code & CI/CD
Automate cloud environments with infrastructure as code so that they are repeatable, consistent, and easier to operate.
Design and improve cloud-native CI/CD pipeline templates that give application teams consistent and reliable delivery by default.
Integrate security and quality controls, such as SAST and SCA, into cloud delivery workflows so that issues are identified early in the development lifecycle.
Security & Software Supply Chain
Operate and improve the enterprise secrets management platform, including access policies, credential rotation, application integration, and self-service features.
Manage the artifact repository platform so that software dependencies are governed, traceable, and checked for risk.
AI-Enabled Engineering
Use AI to improve how the platform is built and run, such as automating routine operational tasks, analysing pipeline failures, and triaging security findings, with appropriate controls in place.
Apply AI coding assistants and agents to accelerate the development of infrastructure as code, pipelines, and automation, and review generated code for quality and security before release.
Deliver platform capabilities that allow application teams to run AI workloads securely, including access to large language model APIs, model hosting, and AI agent tooling such as MCP servers.
Platform Adoption & Collaboration
Help application teams move to and adopt the cloud platform, including Kubernetes, CI/CD, secrets management, and other shared platform services.
Treat the platform as a product: gather feedback from application teams, improve self-service and documentation, track adoption, and contribute to the cloud platform roadmap
