We are looking for a skilled and experienced Platform Engineer to contribute to the development of scalable and robust systems using cutting-edge technologies.

Responsibilities:

As a Platform Engineer within our Platform team, you will engage in the full software life-cycle, collaborating with cross-functional teams encompassing Data Science/Engineering, Product, and UX. Your primary responsibilities will include: Maintenance and development of build systems, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-infrastructure. Ensuring the security of cloud-hosted systems and implementing security checks for new code entering production environments. Developing and maintaining the observability stack for production services, covering alerting, metrics, logging, and dashboard creation. Conducting constructive peer reviews of features and contributing to good review hygiene. Monitoring, maintaining, and troubleshooting systems owned by the engineering team, including retrospectives, live-support, bug-fixes, and security improvements. Measurement of productivity signals, such as cycle time and deployment frequency. Maintenance and evolution of technical documentation (guides, runbooks, RCA/post-mortems, etc.). Mentoring engineers from multiple disciplines. Participation and improvement of agile ceremonies, including planning, grooming, retrospectives, and stand-ups for sprints and planning increments.

Required Skills and Experience:

Mentoring and leadership skills. Experience in running knowledge-sharing activities like workshops or show-and-tell sessions. Strong understanding of Operating Systems, Networking, Data Structures, Databases, and Caching Technologies. Experience in conducting detailed postmortems, hardening systems, and deploying fault-tolerant systems at scale. Technical writing skills. Automation of repetitive tasks using scripting languages (Bash, Python, Powershell, etc.). Expert-level knowledge of AWS best practices and common services. Expert-level knowledge of at least one infrastructure-as-code language (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation). Detailed knowledge of building observable systems and understanding the fundamentals of cohesive dashboard design. Detailed knowledge of build systems and building containerized applications. Understanding of continuous delivery principles, including feature-switching, canary releases, and CI/CD pipelines. Understanding of core security principles and their application in continuous delivery systems. Flexibility to work on all areas of the service stack, including front-end, back-end, and infrastructure. Practical knowledge of at least one programming language (C++, C#, Java, JS, Kotlin, Python, PHP, Golang). Knowledge of container orchestration systems such as Kubernetes or ECS. Familiarity with messaging and asynchronous communication technologies.

Desirable Skills and Experience:

Knowledge and interest in sports. Knowledge of testing methodology and designing high-quality testing suites resilient to changes in implementation. Understanding of the principles of good software design, including awareness of core concepts such as information hiding, abstraction, module design, cohesion, and coupling. Experience in capturing and exposing productivity signals to the engineering team.

What’s in it for you? 

As well as a competitive salary and annual leave allowance, our benefits include health insurance, skills training and much more, depending on the location. We also offer a host of softer benefits, including many social events throughout the year such as summer and winter holiday parties, monthly team building events, sports tournaments, charity days and wellbeing activities.

How we work 

We have adapted a forward-thinking ‘Ways of Working’ framework, which sets out (amongst other things) the opportunities for Geniuses to work flexibly, remotely and on working holidays. It affects different teams and locations differently, so please ask for further information in how it would work with this role. 

Our employees are empowered to stretch the boundaries of what’s achievable, always reaching further and pushing the edges to see what gives. We collaborate, we innovate, and we celebrate. We will continue to grow as an organisation and continue to invest in our highly talented and diverse team of Geniuses.
