About the Role


Our platform engineers design, build and maintain the delivery infrastructure, systems and processes underpinning technology transformation engagements and lead the adoption of modern platforms and ways of working.


We’re looking for hands-on platform engineers with deep understanding of the AWS ecosystem to join delivery teams working on some of the most exciting digital programmes around, with clients in a range of industries.


As an AWS expert, you'll work in small product teams alongside developers, architects, designers, analysts and product owners to deliver automation, tooling and cloud infrastructure.


We encourage continuous learning, so as well as the opportunity to work with some of the brightest and best in the industry, and evaluate the latest technologies, we’ll reward you for obtaining AWS certifications.

  • Significant commercial experience of designing, deploying and managing enterprise cloud environments.
  • Experience of containers and container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, EKS etc.)
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform, CloudFormation or Pulumi.
  • In-depth configuration management, automation and scripting using tools such as Python, Ruby and Go.
