Job Specifications

Platform Engineer – Kubernetes | Azure | CI/CD | AI/ML

Birmingham (Hybrid) – Fast-Growing UK SaaS Scale-Up – Greenfield AI Platform

One of the UK’s fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups is building a brand-new AI & LLM engineering capability, and they’re looking for a Platform Engineer to play a key role in shaping the foundations of their next-gen product suite.

This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to join a high-performing engineering team working on greenfield projects, modern tooling, and large-scale distributed systems. You’ll have real ownership and the chance to influence architecture, tooling, automation and best practices from day one.

What you’ll be working on

Building and improving scalable platform infrastructure to support new AI/ML and LLM-driven products
Designing reliable CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows
Enhancing Kubernetes-based environments, automation and observability
Working closely with software, data and AI teams to accelerate delivery
Driving DevOps maturity across engineering

Tech you’ll be working with

You don’t need to tick every box — they hire for mindset as much as skill.

Kubernetes, Docker, Kustomize
ArgoCD
LiteLLM / LLMOps tooling
Grafana
PostgreSQL, Neo4j
Python for tooling/automation
Azure (AKS, DevOps, cloud services)
CI/CD pipelines

Why this role is different

Greenfield AI/LLM platform — build from scratch rather than maintain legacy
Elite engineering culture — smart, humble, and collaborative team
Massive growth plans — real career progression as the AI function expands
Ownership & autonomy — freedom to bring ideas, tools, and improvements
