We’re looking for an Expert Infrastructure Engineer who doesn’t just keep infrastructure running; you automate it, improve it, and make it smarter.
This is a hands-on role for someone who loves Python, Linux, Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD and cloud automation, and who gets excited about building systems that can do the heavy lifting themselves.
You’ll be working on a global Zero Trust transformation, helping create secure, automated and AI-enabled services across identity, connectivity, workspace, data and security environments.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Design, build and operate automation and orchestration solutions across infrastructure, security, workflows and operational processes.
- Develop powerful automation tooling, scripts and reusable libraries using Python and Bash.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Jenkins and AWS CodePipeline.
- Provision and manage cloud infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code.
- Automate configuration and deployments using Ansible.
- Design and operate workflow orchestration using technologies such as Temporal, Camunda and AWS Step Functions.
- Build event-driven and long-running automated processes.
- Create SOAR-style runbooks and automated remediation solutions to reduce manual incident response.
- Integrate systems using REST APIs, webhooks, message brokers and event-driven technologies.
- Build automated API and regression testing into your solutions.
- Make your automation idempotent, reliable and resilient, with smart retry, compensation and error-handling patterns.
- Monitor automation in production using metrics, structured logging and tracing.
- Define and maintain operational targets such as availability, latency and MTTR.
- Own automation alerting, operational runbooks and participate in incident response/on-call activities.
- Help ensure automation solutions are scalable, highly available and fault tolerant.
Benefits
- Work on a global technology landscape
- Flexible working model based on 1,960 hours over a 12-month period
- Strong work-life balance
- Remote / on-site flexibility
- Modern, state-of-the-art offices
- Work alongside dynamic global teams
- Agile working environment
- Fast-paced and energetic technology environment
- Opportunities to work with cloud, automation, DevOps, security and Zero Trust technologies
- Competitive vehicle purchase/leasing benefits available, subject to applicable terms and conditions
