Platform Engineer

This is a hands-on engineering role within the Platform Engineering team, which forms part of Technology Operations. Platform Engineering is responsible for building and operating the infrastructure, platforms and developer tooling that enable our engineering and quantitative research teams to deliver software reliably, securely and at scale.

The role will contribute to the design, build, automation and operation of a hybrid production platform across AWS and on-premises environments, with a particular focus on the HashiCorp platform, including Nomad, Consul and Vault. The successful candidate will treat infrastructure as software, promote automation-first practices and build reusable platform capabilities that improve developer experience, operational resilience and security.

The role requires strong judgement when making platform changes, including understanding the architecture, ensuring deployment prerequisites are met, carefully managing YAML and infrastructure configuration, and assessing the impact of maintenance and change activity across the wider platform.
