Great platform teams are built by engineers who care about doing things well. People who enjoy solving complex problems, improving systems over time and helping others grow along the way.
This team is looking for a Lead, Staff or Principal Platform Engineer who wants to play a meaningful role in shaping how platforms are built and run. Not just maintaining infrastructure, but influencing architecture, setting technical direction and building systems that enable other engineers to move faster and more confidently. Kubernetes sits at the centre of the platform, and you will have the opportunity to work deeply with it, designing, evolving and scaling container platforms that support modern engineering teams. Alongside hands-on technical work, you will help guide platform strategy, improve reliability and automation, and continuously raise the bar for engineering quality. The environment is collaborative and thoughtful. Engineers here enjoy sharing ideas, challenging assumptions and working together to solve difficult problems. At a senior level, your experience will be valued not only in the systems you design, but in the way you mentor others, contribute to technical discussions and help shape the engineering culture. Growth is taken seriously. The organisation actively supports engineers in developing their expertise, whether that means gaining advanced certifications in Kubernetes and cloud technologies, exploring new architectural patterns or leading ambitious technical initiatives. Time, funding, and encouragement are provided so learning can genuinely happen, not just sit on a wishlist. What makes the team stand out is the balance between ambition and support. There is a strong focus on high-quality engineering, automation and well-designed platforms, but also a real belief that the best work happens in teams where people trust each other, share knowledge openly and enjoy the process of building great systems together. If you are a Lead, Staff or Principal Platform Engineer who enjoys designing platforms at scale, influencing technical direction and helping build a strong engineering culture, this is a place where your experience will have a real and lasting impact.Vacancy posted more than 2 months ago
