AWS Infrastructure Engineer

It's somewhere in the middle - built quickly, now ready to be reviewed, improved, and strengthened for scale.

You'll:

• Assess the current AWS setup
• Reduce technical debt
• Improve security and segmentation
• Help define what a robust, scalable environment should look like

Less "keep it running".

More "make it right".

What you'll be doing

• Reviewing and improving the existing AWS infrastructure
• Strengthening security, segmentation, and best practice architecture
• Supporting a hybrid setup across cloud and on-prem environments
• Handling technical issues and escalations when needed
• Working closely with engineering teams to align infrastructure and development
• Helping move teams further toward AWS and away from on-prem dependencies
• Contributing to automation and DevSecOps practices already in place
• Communicating clearly across technical and non-technical stakeholders, They need someone who can step into that environment and bring clarity, direction, and improvement.

• Strong, hands-on AWS experience (3-5+ years) - beyond just setup and migration
• A background in infrastructure / on-prem environments, now cloud-focused
• Solid understanding of:
• VPC, networking, and segmentation
• Secure, scalable AWS architecture
• Hybrid infrastructure environments
• A practical approach to AWS security and best practice
• Ideally exposure to other cloud platforms (Azure ideally) - enough to understand multi-cloud environments, even if AWS is your core strength
• Experience working alongside engineering teams in modern environments
• The confidence to challenge, improve, and push standards forward

• Salary: £70,000 - £80,000
• Working pattern: Remote-first (occasional travel to Portsmouth data centre)
• Team: Small, high-impact infra team (you'll be the third engineer)
• Influence: Genuine say in technical direction and standards
• Environment: AWS-first, with hybrid infrastructure and modern DevSecOps practices
• Opportunity: Help shape a growing business moving from "move fast" to "build properly"
