We are continuing to strengthen our platform engineering capabilities and are now looking for a Senior Platform Engineer who wants to play a key role in developing and modernising our Application Platform.
This is an opportunity to work hands-on with modern platform technologies and help build the foundations that enable application teams to deliver software efficiently, securely, and at scale. The platform is built on Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies, making Kubernetes expertise a key requirement for the role.
As a Senior Platform Engineer, you will be part of the team responsible for our Application Platform. The platform provides the capabilities, tooling, and services that enable development teams across the organisation to build, deploy, and operate applications efficiently and securely. Kubernetes is a core technology within the platform, and you will work extensively with the design, development, operation, and evolution of Kubernetes-based platform capabilities.
You will work with both existing and future platform services, focusing on automation, reliability, scalability, security, and developer experience. The role combines software-oriented infrastructure engineering with platform development and offers significant opportunities to influence the technical direction of our platform ecosystem.
Working closely with architects, developers, security specialists, and other engineering teams, you will help build and improve platform services that are secure, scalable, and easy to consume through self-service capabilities and well-defined interfaces.
Key responsibilities
