Job description

A fast-growing pet nutrition and technology business is looking for a Cloud Infrastructure Manager to help shape the next phase of its cloud platform and infrastructure capability.

Over the past 18 months, the technology leadership team has stabilised a complex infrastructure environment with the support of external partners. With those foundations in place, the focus is now on building a stronger internal DevOps and cloud capability and improving the way infrastructure supports engineering teams.

This role combines technical leadership with hands-on engineering, leading a small DevOps team while helping guide the architecture, reliability, and security of the organisation's AWS environment.

You'll work closely with software engineering teams to improve platform architecture, infrastructure practices, and cloud reliability, while helping define a clear path forward for the infrastructure function.

Drive best practices around Infrastructure as Code and automation
Partner with engineering teams to improve ways of working across platform and development
Support the organisation's security maturity journey, including Cyber Essentials+ and longer-term ISO27001 goals

Tech environment

AWS
Terraform
CI/CD and cloud-native infrastructure

Requirements

The team are looking for a strong cloud generalist with experience across DevOps and platform engineering. This role would suit a Senior or Lead DevOps / Platform Engineer looking to move into management, or someone already leading a small team who still enjoys being technically involved.
