Senior Platform Engineer

We’re building the UK's next generation engineering powerhouse, providing critical technology that strengthens national security and resilience.

We specialise in turning advances in sensing, AI, and communications into operational capability for the edge, where connectivity may be degraded or denied. Our work focuses on accelerating the deployment of technology, improving decision-making for frontline teams, and protecting people and critical assets in demanding environments.

Headquartered in Bristol, Rowden employs around 200 people and operates over 20,000 square feet of engineering and manufacturing facilities. We have a growing international footprint and are one of Europe’s fastest-growing engineering businesses.

About the role

We’re seeking a Senior Platform Engineer to help build the engineering platform that underpins how Rowden develops, deploys, and operates technology. The platform will improve developer experience and make Rowden’s engineering faster, more consistent, more scalable, and more secure. This is a high-impact opportunity to shape the foundations of one of the UK’s most exciting technology companies.

Working closely with Software, Infrastructure, ML, IT, Product, QA, and Security teams, you’ll be hands-on in delivering the platform vision and improving engineering experience. You’ll play a critical role in building the tooling, infrastructure, and capabilities that enable our engineers to solve complex
customer problems.
