Cloud Engineer

This is an Individual Contributor (IC) engineering role working across platform engineering and cloud infrastructure delivery. You’ll help build and enhance cloud landing zones and developer self-service capabilities, and you’ll contribute to solution implementation alongside senior SMEs and partner teams.
Scope note: This is an infrastructure-focused role covering networking, identity, compute, storage, containers, CI/CD, security, and observability—primarily at the implementation and operational layer.

• Support delivery and run: Contribute across the delivery and run lifecycle, including infrastructure/software changes, testing, and operational support. Flex between build and run work based on team priorities.
• Deliver scoped outcomes: Take ownership of well-defined components or services, helping to implement technology solutions that meet customer and journey requirements, with guidance from senior engineers and architects.
• Collaborate with stakeholders: Work with engineers, architects, and business stakeholders to understand requirements, clarify priorities, and feed into the evolving direction of the product/service.
• Automation and standardisation: Help maintain a consistent engineering environment by automating repeatable tasks and applying agreed standards to reduce variation and improve reliability.
•Testing contribution: Create and maintain test plans and evidence for your changes (e.g., unit and integration tests) within automated test environments to support code quality.
• Release and change support: Support DevOps teams during releases/changes by preparing deployments, validating changes, and troubleshooting issues. Build domain knowledge over time and document what you learn.
• Operational readiness: Work with Ops, Dev, and Test to identify and address operational considerations early (performance, alerting, runbooks, design issues) as part of delivery.
• Incident participation: Participate in incident investigation and resolution for the services you support, following established processes and escalating appropriately.
• Resilience contribution: Contribute to resilience and recoverability goals (e.g., monitoring coverage, backups, failover procedures) to help meet agreed service targets (RTO/RPO/SLOs where applicable).
• CI/CD enablement: Help build and improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation within the team, supporting continuous improvement rather than large “big bang” rewrites.
• Continuous learning (regulated environment): Stay current with relevant tools and practices, including security and regulatory considerations (e.g., data privacy, consent, and residency) and apply guidance from control functions and SMEs.
