Strong experience architecting and managing AWS environments, including EC2, EKS, RDS, VPC, and IAM.
Hands-on expertise with Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform or similar) and integrating them into CI/CD workflows.
Solid understanding of Kubernetes operations on AWS (EKS), including cluster scaling and deployment automation.
Proficiency in Linux administration, networking fundamentals, and cloud security principles.
Familiarity with observability stacks such as Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki, with structured alerting practices.
Knowledge of database operations, including migrations, high availability, backups, and disaster recovery strategies.
Skilled in automation and scripting using Terraform, Python, or Bash.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a focus on driving efficiency and reliability through automation.
Ideally, you will hold a 2:1 or higher degree in a technical discipline but this is not a strict requirement.
Please note we are open to looking at candidates with slightly less commercial experience - somewhere in the region of two to fives years.
Please be aware this is not a fully remote role and would require you to relocate to Cambridge or at least be within commuting distance - do consider this before applying.

What can you expect to be doing?

Architect and maintain robust cloud environments on AWS, leveraging services such as EC2, EKS, RDS/Aurora, ElastiCache, OpenSearch, and CloudFront.
Lead the rollout and optimization of Kubernetes on EKS, ensuring reliable deployments and efficient scaling across workloads.
Design automated infrastructure solutions using Infrastructure-as-Code tools like Terraform, integrating them seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines.
Introduce and refine deployment strategies that minimize downtime, including blue/green, rolling, and canary approaches.
Strengthen platform resilience by improving autoscaling, high availability, and eliminating single points of failure.
Work closely with SRE and Security teams to enhance monitoring and observability through Prometheus, Grafana, and CloudWatch.
Embed security best practices into every layer of the platform, covering IAM, secrets management, WAF, and compliance.
Drive cost efficiency and performance improvements through proactive automation and resource optimization.
Contribute to operational excellence by participating in on-call rotations and post-incident reviews.

• Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for Yocto-based Linux and bare-metal firmware projects.

• Automate build, test, and deployment processes, including hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing.

• Integrate static analysis, unit testing, and monitoring into automated workflows.

• Manage and optimize build infrastructure using Jenkins, GitLab CI, and custom scripts.

• Ensure reproducible Linux builds with Yocto, including kernel and BSP layer maintenance.

• Develop containerized environments (Docker) for consistent build and test processes.

• Collaborate with development, QA, and IT teams to embed DevOps best practices across the organization.

• Promote automation and infrastructure-as-code principles to improve efficiency and scalability.

• Implement secure DevOps practices, including credential management and artifact signing.

• Support compliance standards (e.g., ISO 26262, IEC 62304) through traceable, audit-ready pipelines.
