About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

In this position, you will be working with our Clinical Research team.
You will be working with the Clinical Research team in the transition and takeover of the platform’s infrastructure and pipelines from the outgoing vendor, including establishing control and securing the environment.
The cloud infrastructure and reliability of a live, multi-client clinical platform.
The automation that provisions, configures, and deploys client instances repeatably.
The CI/CD and release pipelines across backend, web, and mobile.
The platform’s secrets and credential lifecycle, together with its security and compliance automation.
The observability and delivery metrics that indicate the health of both the platform and the delivery process.
You will work closely with the Technical Lead (who owns technical direction), the development team, and QA.
This role functions as an enabler of the entire team’s delivery, rather than as a standalone operations function.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Core Engineering Skills (must-have)
Cloud infrastructure on AWS — EC2, RDS, S3, VPC/networking, IAM; able to design, secure, and operate production infrastructure
Infrastructure as code — CloudFormation, Terraform, or equivalent; infrastructure defined and versioned, not hand-built
CI/CD pipeline ownership — designing and maintaining automated build, test, and deploy pipelines (GitLab CI or equivalent)
Containerisation and orchestration — Docker, and a production orchestrator (Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, or similar)
Secrets and security automation — secrets management (HashiCorp Vault or equivalent) and sound security instincts around credentials, access control, and the software supply chain
Observability — metrics, logging, and alerting (Prometheus / Grafana / Loki or equivalent), applied to drive reliability rather than merely to populate dashboards
Linux, networking, and TLS — proficient in operating production Linux servers, web routing, and certificate management
Automation and scripting — Bash, Python, or similar, with a strong inclination toward eliminating manual effort through automation
Delivery and Reliability Mindset
Regards safe, frequent, low-risk deployment as an objective in its own right, and is able to measure and improve delivery performance — deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, and time to recover
Designs for repeatability, converting one-off manual setups into reusable, self-service automation
Owns reliability end to end — backup and restore, rollback, and incident response that are tested rather than assumed
Maintains a security-first approach — sound instincts for containing and preventing credential exposure, and for building the guardrails that prevent it
Preferred Qualifications
Mobile release engineering — Fastlane, code signing (iOS provisioning profiles, Android keystores), and store and beta distribution (TestFlight, Google Play, Firebase App Distribution).
As the mobile release pipeline is already established, the expectation is to own, operate, and extend it rather than build it from the ground up; candidates who are otherwise strong but new to this area are welcome to develop the capability in role
Regulated or healthcare environment — experience operating within HIPAA, GxP, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, or equivalent frameworks, where audit trails and change control govern how deployments are made
Database change management — safe, automated, versioned schema migrations against live production data
Static analysis and dependency scanning — integration of security and quality gates (e.g. SonarQube) into CI
Cloud cost management — maintaining efficient spend across multiple client environments
Education and Experience
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on experience)
6+ years in DevOps, SRE, platform, or infrastructure engineering, with direct ownership of production cloud infrastructure
Proven experience building CI/CD and automation from the ground up, not only maintaining existing pipelines
Experience operating a live, customer-facing production system where downtime has real consequences
Healthcare or other regulated-industry experience preferred
