Job Description

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
