  • Embedding modern engineering practices such as Infrastructure as Code, Policy as Code, CI/CD, automated testing, and observability into all solutions
  • Simplifying and modernising our technology estate through smart design and automation, reducing manual processes and operational complexity

  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP), modern networking, containerisation, and security tooling
  • Certifications such as CISSP, CCSP, or cloud security accreditations are appreciated but not required.
