📍 Location: Liverpool Street (2 office days/week)

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 (AKS, EKS, GKE or self-hosted)
  • Terraform
  • Cloud - can be any background but need to be comfortable moving to Azure
  • CI/CD - ideally Github Actions, but happy with other tools
  • 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.
