Job Specifications

Job Title: Senior Platform Engineer (Azure)
Salary: £80-85k (+ 10% bonus)
Location: Liverpool Street (2 office days/week)
Industry: FS / Private Equity

A data intelligence platform specialising in Private Equity is looking for a Senior Platform Engineer.

Data is at the heart of the company and the product, so alongside Software Engineers, you and your team would work closely with Data Engineers too - in fact, this role reports into a Head of Data & Platform Engineering which highlights the synergy between these teams.

In this role, you'll provide technical guidance and mentorship to 2 less senior colleagues, but work as an individual contributor for the vast majority of your time to start off with - you'll have a clear progression path to a Tech Lead in 9-12 months so we're looking for someone who wants to go down the leadership route, whilst remaining close to technology.

Must have requirements:
Kubernetes (ideally AKS)
Terraform
Cloud - Azure is highly preferred
CI/CD - ideally Github Actions
can do attitude and problem solving skills
great communication and interpersonal skills
aspiration to lead a (small) team

Bonus points for experience with:
previous leadership/mentorship experience
previous experience working with Data Engineers
understanding of Private Equity and/or financial accounting
experience working with Identity Providers (e.g. Azure B2C, Okta)
familiarity with PostgreSQL or similar databases
familiarity with monitoring (e.g. Prometheus/Grafana)

Please note: unfortunately, this role does not offer VISA sponsorship.
