This is a rare opportunity to join a small, highly capable platform team at a pivotal point in a long-term technology transformation. You will play a key role in reshaping core infrastructure, driving automation and scalability, and influencing how the platform evolves over the next phase of growth.

THE COMPANY
They are a well-funded fintech operating in the high-net-worth space, building technology that aggregates complex financial data to deliver intelligent, life-focused insights. The business is product-led, engineering-driven, and focused on long-term quality over short-term fixes. Their culture encourages curiosity, open communication, and thoughtful challenge, with engineers expected to contribute ideas, not just code.

THE ROLE

• Drive improvements in automation, scalability, and reliability across the platform.
• Contribute to decisions around cloud architecture and core frameworks.
• Collaborate closely with platform, data, and engineering teams to enable faster and safer delivery.
• Document designs clearly and communicate ideas effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Strong hands-on experience building and operating Kubernetes environments.
• Experience working with a major cloud platform such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Confidence designing scalable, automated infrastructure rather than maintaining legacy setups.
• Exposure to infrastructure as code, Terraform experience is beneficial but not essential.
• Comfortable sharing ideas, challenging existing approaches, and collaborating in a small team environment.

SALARY AND BENEFITS

• Salary Sacrifice Schemes: Electric Car Scheme, Workplace Nursery Scheme, Cycle to Work Scheme, and Gym Benefit.
• Option for salary sacrifice pension with Nest.
• Seasonal and team socials.
• Support for mental health.
