We are easy

Jet – a FTSE-250 listed, £multi-billion low-cost airline that serves tens of millions of customers every single year. If you’re reading this, you have probably already been an easy

Jet customer, and you’ll know that there is no more iconic (or Orange!) travel brand in Europe.

We fly more than 1,207 routes, connecting 38 countries across Europe, and employ more than 18,000 colleagues. We’re on a mission to make low-cost travel easy – and whatever your role here, you’ll connect millions of people to what they love using Europe’s best airline network, great value fares, and friendly service.

What makes us easy

Jet? Our Promise Behaviours – we are Safe, Bold, Welcoming and Challenging. Four Behaviours. One Spirit. One easy

Jet.

TEAM

The ITSO (IT Services and Airline Operations) organisation manages and is accountable for the rapid delivery of the trustworthy, scalable, and efficient IT infrastructure services needed to support the technology critical for easy

Jet’s future growth plans and ambitions.

I&O Platforms are part of the ITSO organisation and form the backbone of easy

Jet's technology capabilities. They underpin nearly everything we do at easy

Jet - from providing transparency on the state of our technology services to ensuring efficient and secure hosting of our data. Effective I&O Platforms are critical to enabling our future growth aspirations and our ambition to become Europe's most loved airline.

This is the person we're looking for.

You think in products, not projects and You've built platforms that engineers
* choose* to use. You measure success in adoption rates and developer satisfaction — not just uptime. And you can translate complex infrastructure trade-offs into decisions that land with senior leaders.

What You'll Be Doing

As Platform Lead – Hosting, you'll own our internal developer platform — the cloud foundations, golden paths and self-service capabilities that hundreds of easy

Jet engineers depend on every day.

You’ll run it like a product: a clear vision, a prioritised backlog, continuous discovery with your users, and measurable outcomes. Not a ticket queue. Not a service desk. A product team.

Concretely, That Means
  • Owning our multi-cloud Landing Zone strategy (AWS, Azure, GCP) — account design, network patterns, identity, policy-as-code, security baselines
  • Building "golden paths" that make the secure, compliant route the easiest one

Driving adoption through great experience, not mandates

  • Leading a cross-functional team with real ownership and a culture of enablement
  • Reporting progress, risks and value to senior leadership — clearly and confidently
You’ll thrive here if you
  • Have led a platform, SRE or internal developer platform function with measurable outcomes to show for it
  • Run proper product discovery — you know what a good problem statement looks like and how to prioritise without building everything
  • Are genuinely comfortable in cloud foundations:
    Landing Zones, IaC, guardrails, policy-as-code
  • Bridge engineering, security, architecture and leadership without losing any of them
  • Treat agile as a mindset, not a ceremony
  • Are hands-on enough to earn engineer credibility and strategic enough to influence at director level

At easy

Jet, we pride ourselves on a vibrant and inclusive workplace culture that supports and rewards innovation and excellence.
