Key skills for this role
A few things that are true about this team and, we think, make it a good place to build:
It is a team with real ownership. You look after your own areas and make the call on what is best for the platform, rather than working through a queue of tickets someone else has written.
We do not work in a silo. We spend a lot of time with the teams who build on us, including a good deal of design work together, so the platform grows around what people genuinely need.
The scale keeps it interesting. A cell-based setup across several regions on modern AWS tooling is a good deal more involved, and more rewarding, than a single-region estate.
We are improving something that already works. The platform is live and doing its job. Our task is to take it from good to really good, so the problems are about pushing things further rather than wiring up the basics.
Like everyone here we use AI tools day to day, and we are steadily moving the more repetitive operational work onto automation. We would rather have engineers than operators, and we do the automation carefully, because infrastructure is not somewhere to be careless.

This matters to us more than any single item on the list below. We are looking for someone who:
Works well on their own. You can join a call, understand what a team really needs, and come back with a sensible plan. You think about the problem rather than wait to be told what to do.
Communicates clearly and enjoys working with people. Requests come from a lot of directions, and you are comfortable with that. If you have done this in a smaller company or a lean team, that experience counts for a great deal here.
Is pragmatic and cares about quality. You know when something needs doing now and when it needs doing properly, and you can juggle a few things at once without dropping any of them.
A solid cloud infrastructure background and good software-engineering habits, usually around 5+ years as a Platform, DevOps, Software, or Site Reliability Engineer.
A degree in Computer Science, Engineering or related field; or the equivalent in real experience.
Strong hands-on AWS across networking, edge, and compute (for example VPC, CloudFront, API Gateway, EKS).
Solid Kubernetes (ideally Amazon EKS) and infrastructure as code (Terraform or OpenTofu), with a GitOps mindset.
Comfortable moving between operational work, automation, requests from other teams, and new design, and prioritising sensibly across them.
A production mindset: you care about uptime, security, and efficiency. And you communicate clearly in English.
Experience in or near a compliance-driven environment (FedRAMP or FIPS is a real plus).
Building self-service internal developer platforms with modern tooling.
Working with cell-based or multi-region architectures at scale.
