Job description

Senior Platform Engineer (DevEx) - GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, Python

Oliver Bernard are currently seeking a strong, Senior Platform Engineer (from a Software Engineering background) to join a client of ours on a digital transformation orientated project. Existing plans are focused on embracing Cloud Native, removing a lot of bespoke engineering from their environment, optimising processes, and advocating for DevEx / Dev enablement throughout.

The existing Platform team consists of four engineers who work closely with engineering day to day, and are responsible for scaling their practices across Cloud, Containers, and IaC technologies, whilst driving best practices from a broader engineering perspective across Infrastructure.

Requirements

  • Strong Cloud experience with GCP (at least 3-4 years)
  • Containerisation / Orchestration with Kubernetes (+ Helm)
  • IaC with Terraform, alongside Automation with Ansible
  • Prior work across CI/CD, Monitoring and Observability
  • Comfortable coding with an OO language (ideally Python or Java)
  • Prior experience in a Senior capacity

This position is a remote first opening (with office visits only required quarterly for team days) and can offer £75-85K for the right profile.
