Job Description & How to Apply Below
Fully Remote (UK)
24/7 Shift Pattern (28-day rota including days & nights)
£ Competitive + Bonus + Excellent Benefits
Build resilient cloud platforms that support critical national services.
This is far more than a traditional NOC role.
You'll be joining an engineering-led organisation where reliability, automation and continuous improvement sit at the heart of the platform. Rather than simply responding to incidents, you'll work to prevent them by improving systems, automating operational processes and helping shape the future of highly resilient cloud services.
If you're passionate about building reliable cloud platforms and enjoy solving complex technical problems in large-scale production environments, we'd love to hear from you.
What you'll be doing
Monitoring and maintaining highly available production platforms running in AWS
Responding to and managing production incidents across a 24/7 service
Investigating complex technical issues and restoring services quickly and effectively
Developing automation to reduce manual operational tasks and improve platform resilience
Building and improving monitoring, alerting and observability across cloud environments
Working alongside Software, Platform, Cloud and Security Engineers to improve reliability and operational excellence
Contributing to post-incident reviews and driving continuous service improvements
Supporting containerised workloads using Kubernetes and Docker
What we're looking for
You'll ideally have experience in a Production Engineering, Cloud Operations or NOC environment with exposure to:
Linux systems administration
AWS cloud infrastructure
Kubernetes and Docker
Production support and incident management
Python, Bash or Go scripting
Monitoring and observability platforms such as Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, Splunk or Cloud Watch
Networking fundamentals including DNS, TCP/IP and load balancing
A passion for automation, continuous improvement and operational excellence
Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), SRE principles (SLIs, SLOs), or regulated environments would be beneficial but isn't essential.
