## Description

You will work closely with engineering leadership to define the architectural approach, engineering standards and adoption roadmap for Kubernetes-based CI capabilities. The role combines immediate integration, experimentation and analysis with longer-term technical leadership across multiple delivery programmes, balancing delivery needs, cost efficiency, governance and developer experience.

 * Define the end-to-end architecture for CI workloads running on Kubernetes.
 * Lead hands-on work in an on-premises Kubernetes environment, including deployment, maintenance, experimentation and analysis.
 * Assess the impact of integrating external infrastructure services into existing CI designs.
 * Produce technical findings, design recommendations and change specifications.
 * Provide technical guidance and mentor less-experienced engineers., * Target architecture: Define workload isolation, networking, artefact flows, autoscaling and resource-management approaches for Kubernetes-based CI workloads.
 * Secure container supply chain: Design image build, scanning and promotion processes, registry architecture, environment separation, policy enforcement and secrets-management integration.
 * Observability and operations: Establish logging, metrics, monitoring, platform-level visibility and alerting.
 * Migration strategy: Identify candidate workloads and create a phased adoption plan with clear risk controls and rollback strategies.
 * Technical delivery: Deploy and maintain on-premises clusters and lead implementation experiments, testing and impact analysis.
 * Engineering leadership: Set standards, influence design decisions, communicate findings and support the technical development of team members.
