London, Greater London, United Kingdom Our Future Health Full time

We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to join the small team designing and building the platforms and systems to support a number of vital functions across Our Future Health.

These systems will include but not limited to the participant-facing websites, import and processing of high-volume health, NHS and genetic datasets to the de-identification/sharing of data into accredited Trusted Research Environments (TREs).

This is a greenfield project where we have a significant new partnership with Microsoft and are building our new infrastructure on Azure. If you have prior experience building a public cloud-based platform from the ground up, we'd be keen to see your application. We're looking for candidates who are passionate who can recommend modern technologies and practices that have a track record of being used successfully in the platform we are looking to build.

At Our Future Health, our mission is to transform the prevention, detection and treatment of conditions such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke. We're looking for people to join us on our journey. If you're looking for a new challenge where you can contribute to helping future generations live in good health for longer, then we're keen to speak with you.

What you'll be doing

  • Be part of our growing technology team to help create the cloud platforms to support Our Future Health as we scale
  • Work with the engineering and operations teams to define platform requirements
  • Use an iterative approach to building the platform, starting simple and increasing complexity as we go
  • Strong experience working in a Linux focused environment.
  • Support defining development processes as part of a new, growing team
  • Own solutions from conception to deployment and beyond, taking part in on-call rotas where necessary
  • Integrate and deploy third-party tools required by other teams
  • Devise innovative ideas for solving hard technical problems involving distributed systems, scale and security and translate these ideas into designs and implementation
  • Implement best practices when it comes to availability, scalability, operational excellence, and efficiency
  • Participate in a 24/7 on-call rota.

What you won't be doing

  • Working in a siloed environment with no freedom to make decisions.
  • Working in a place where you can't see the impact your expertise makes.

Requirements

  • Proficiency in cloud DevOps/platform engineering and large-scale live services. Azure experience strongly preferred; experience with an additional cloud preferred (AWS or GCP)
  • Hands-on experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Chef, Puppet

  • Good understanding of cloud security best practices and security compliance
  • Experience designing, supporting and troubleshooting production systems at scale
  • Good understanding of technology stacks from networks up to applications
  • Experience working with software engineering best practices: unit testing, code reviews, design documentation, excellent debugging, troubleshooting skills
