About The Role
We are seeking highly skilled and experienced Platform Product Engineers to join our Security, Infrastructure and Performance team. This is a crucial, dual-faceted role that combines high-level engineering strategy with hands-on operational excellence. The successful candidates will be responsible for building, operating, and continuously enhancing the internal technology platform, fundamentally treating this platform as a product with all development teams as its primary customers.
The Platform Product Engineer role is centered around embodying and executing DevOps principles, specifically focusing on:
- Automation: Systematically removing manual toil from the software development lifecycle (SDLC) through the creation of robust tooling, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code (IaC).
What You'll Do
The core responsibility is to implement, maintain, and continuously improve the foundational platform infrastructure that powers all engineering services. This necessitates a relentless focus on ensuring high reliability, exceptional scalability, and optimal performance across the entire stack.
- Platform Infrastructure: Build and maintain platform infrastructure using declarative IaC tools (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi), ensuring all environments are reproducible, version-controlled, and auditable. Proactively manage the capacity of the infrastructure to consistently meet or exceed Service Level Objectives for latency, error rates, and availability.
- Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) Pipelines: Implement, maintain, and evolve the fully automated CI and CD pipelines. This includes establishing best practices for fast, reliable, and secure build, test, and deployment processes.
- Observability: Implement and manage robust systems for monitoring (metrics), logging (centralised log aggregation), and distributed tracing to provide deep insights into application and infrastructure health.
- Applied DevOps and SRE Principles:
- Must have : Demonstrable, hands-on experience applying core DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles to manage, monitor, and scale production systems.
- Must have: Expertise in one or more major public cloud providers (AWS, GCP, or Azure), encompassing network configuration, security best practices (IAM, security groups, etc.), compute services (EC2, GKE, ECS, etc.), and managed services (databases, queues, serverless functions).
- Must have: In-depth knowledge of container technologies, specifically Docker, and extensive experience orchestrating them at scale using Kubernetes (K8s). This includes designing, deploying, and managing Kubernetes clusters, understanding networking (CNI), storage (CSI), and security configurations within the Kubernetes ecosystem.
- Must have: Proficiency in one or more modern software languages (e.g., Typescript, Go, Python, Rust) and associated frameworks used for building high-performance, resilient production systems.
- Must have: Experience owning, managing, and maintaining mission-critical operational tooling.
- Desirable: Proven background in implementing and managing centralised logging solutions or similar platforms (e.g., Splunk, DataDog).
- Desirable: Familiarity with distributed tracing tools (e.g., Jaeger, Zipkin) and Application Performance Monitoring (APM) solutions.
- Competitive salary of £80,000 to £95,000

- 25 days holiday plus local public holidays
- Apple hardware
- Private medical insurance through AXA
- Pension contribution through Hargreaves Lansdown
- Enhanced family leave
