In Office Senior EMEA Cloud Computing Developer Tools Infrastructure Engineer Terraform Bash Ansible Python Kubernetes

Requirements

• 5+ years in infrastructure, platform, or DevOps/SRE engineering, with a track record of owning systems end to end. • Strong infrastructure-as-code and automation skills: Terraform, Ansible, and scripting in Python and Bash. • Solid networking fundamentals. • Experience operating across hybrid cloud and on-prem/bare-metal environments. • Strong grasp of infrastructure security: IAM, secrets management, network security, and hardening across cloud and self-hosted systems. • Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose and resolve complex, cross-layer issues in a fast-moving environment. • A collaborative communicator who can work with hardware and ML engineers and explain infrastructure trade-offs clearly. • Bachelor's degree in computer science, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Responsibilities

• Build and operate the platform: design, provision, and run the Kubernetes and bare-metal infrastructure that powers development, simulation, and testing workloads. • Automate everything: own infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and provisioning pipelines so environments are reproducible, version-controlled, and fast to stand up or tear down. • Improve the developer platform: build and maintain CI/CD, internal tooling, and self-service workflows that let hardware, software, and compiler engineers ship without waiting on you. • Tune for performance: optimise networking (VLANs, firewalls, VPNs, and low-latency/high-bandwidth fabrics) and storage for the throughput and latency that ML and hardware workloads require. • Own reliability and observability: implement monitoring, alerting, and capacity planning, and drive availability and performance across hybrid cloud and on-prem environments. • Own platform security: implement identity and access management, secrets management, data protection, and threat detection across self-hosted and cloud infrastructure. • Drive continuous improvement: proactively find and fix the bottlenecks, manual steps, and reliability gaps that slow the wider engineering team down.
