About the role and team:
A hands-on senior engineer embedded in the client’s platform team, responsible for the reliability, scalability, and evolution of their Kubernetes-based infrastructure on AWS. This role sits at the intersection of platform engineering and DevOps, owning the day-to-day health of containerised workloads while driving improvements to delivery pipelines, GitOps practices, and managed service configuration. The right candidate is comfortable working autonomously in a mature, opinionated stack and can influence without authority across engineering teams.

- Drive GitOps practices using Flux, maintaining, improving, and troubleshooting the reconciliation pipeline across environments
- Manage and optimise core managed services: EKS, MSK, and RDS, including scaling, patching, cost governance, and incident response
- Maintain and extend infrastructure-as-code using Terraform, ensuring consistency, modularity, and alignment with AWS best practices
- Support and improve GitHub Actions CI/CD workflows, including build, test, and deployment pipelines for containerised applications
- Collaborate with development teams to support the hosting, debugging, and performance of Java/Kotlin and Python-based services
- Identify and address platform-level technical debt, contributing to a roadmap of incremental improvements
- Kubernetes at production scale, EKS preferred, with strong understanding of networking, RBAC, resource management, and cluster operations
- GitOps tooling, Flux (essential), with solid working knowledge of Helm and Kustomize
- AWS managed services, hands-on experience with EKS, MSK, and RDS in production environments
- Terraform, authoring and maintaining modular infrastructure-as-code across multiple environments
- GitHub Actions, building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines for containerised workloads
- Application-layer awareness, ability to support and troubleshoot Java/Kotlin and/or Python services running in containers
- Strong operational mindset, incident management, and root cause analysis
