## About the Role

* Strong AWS experience essential (AWS-focused, not Azure)
 * Solid grounding in security principles and secure-by-design practices
 * Experience with CI/CD, containerisation, IaC, testing frameworks
 * Comfortable leading design work and mentoring early-career engineers
 * Strong stakeholder management skills

## Description

SR2 is supporting on of our long standing consultancy clients who are on a mission to make the UK the safest place to work online. They deliver highly secure, technically challenging projects for UK Government clients. They invest heavily in their people - regular team socials, an annual company trip, five fully paid training days a year, and genuine career progression.

The role
You'll join a small, fast-paced agile delivery team, taking a leading role across the project lifecycle - from architecture and build through to managing customer relationships. There's a big, brand-new AI project on offer right now, genuinely exciting stuff, but very confidential at this stage. It involves taking a newly designed AI system and implementing/scaling it into a live working environment. It requires standard security clearance so ideally you will be cleared already or happy to go through clearance.

What you'll do

 * Build and operate CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code
 * Design platform services for deployment, operation and monitoring of containerised products
 * Build new infrastructure (not just maintain existing environments)
 * Work in public/private cloud, primarily AWS
 * Support Agile delivery (Scrum/Kanban), mentor junior team members, manage customer relationships
