AWS Infrastructure Engineer

• Remote First with quarterly visits to an office in Portsmouth
• Adhoc travel to data centre on Portsmouth area

We’re partnering with a fast-growing, tech-driven SaaS business with a high-demand, scaling infrastructure estate.

They’re investing heavily in modern cloud, automation, and AI-driven technologies, so if you want to work in an environment that’s evolving quickly and staying ahead of the curve, this is it.

This isn’t a “keep the lights on” role. It’s a chance to shape and scale a modern hybrid cloud platform.

The Opportunity

As an AWS Infrastructure Engineer, you’ll play a key role in evolving a complex hybrid environment across AWS and on-prem infrastructure.

You’ll work closely with engineering teams to:

• Improve reliability and performance
• Drive DevOps and automation best practices
• Help modernise and scale a growing platform

This is a senior, hands-on role with real influence - not just execution, but direction.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own and evolve a hybrid AWS + on-prem infrastructure estate
• Improve performance, scalability, security, and cost efficiency
• Drive automation and DevOps maturity
• Support both internal systems and customer-facing platforms
• Troubleshoot complex issues and ensure high availability
• Continuously improve systems, processes, and documentation

What They’re Looking For

You’ll likely bring:

• Strong experience designing and supporting AWS infrastructure
• Solid understanding of hybrid cloud environments (AWS + on-prem / Microsoft stack)
• Good networking knowledge (load balancing, firewalls, switching)
• Experience working in Agile / DevOps engineering environments
• A proactive, problem-solving mindset

Tech You’ll Work With

You don’t need everything, but strong experience in at least a couple of:

• Docker (ECS)
• Terraform, Ansible, or CDK
• AWS (EC2, VPC, Transit Gateway)
• Cloudflare
• Windows Server / IIS
• Linux
