We're hiring for a growing engineering business modernising its core platform on Azure, with AI central to daily delivery. They need a Platform Engineer to run that cloud environment day to day: dependable, properly governed, and set up so engineers and AI agents can ship changes with confidence.
What you'll be doing:
- Shape the platform architecture: container orchestration, managed database services, the messaging layer.
- Own the path from commit to production: pipelines, release automation, rollback.
- Handle network design, identity management and access governance for the platform.
- Keep the platform observable: tracing, logging, alerting, the works.
- Bridge cloud and on-premise systems through a phased migration.
- Set the guardrails for AI-generated infrastructure changes.
What we're looking for:
- Hands-on, current experience in production Azure (AKS or Container Apps, managed Postgres, Service Bus or Event Hubs).
- Fluent in Terraform or Bicep for infrastructure as code.
- Built and run CI/CD pipelines, ideally on Azure DevOps, that hold up under real load.
- Confident across cloud networking, identity and access governance.
- Treat observability as core engineering work
- Comfortable directing AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) as a daily working habit.
- Bonus: hybrid on-premise exposure, or a SaaS/product engineering background.
