RESPONSIBILITIES

What you’ll be doing

You will work within the Shared Engineering Services team, supporting the Customer Services Microservices Platform that underpins a range of critical customer servicing applications.

A typical day will involve designing, developing, and deploying secure, scalable platform solutions, alongside supporting business-as-usual (BAU) activities such as incident resolution, platform monitoring, upgrades, and vulnerability remediation. You will also provide support during application releases, integration activities, and testing phases, helping to identify, troubleshoot, and resolve issues across the delivery lifecycle.

Working closely with application teams, architects, and key stakeholders, you will contribute to platform enhancements and ensure the delivery of reliable, resilient, and secure services. You will play an active role in knowledge sharing, continuous learning, and fostering a collaborative engineering culture focused on innovation, continuous improvement, and technical excellence.

About you

As a minimum requirement, you’ll have:

• Hands-on experience designing, deploying, managing, and troubleshooting Kubernetes platforms, including Amazon EKS, within complex production environments
• Experience in administering and supporting Red Hat OpenShift and enterprise platform services, with a proven track record of implementing secure solutions and embedding security best practices throughout the platform lifecycle
• Proficiency in Terraform and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles, with experience automating, provisioning, and managing cloud infrastructure and platform components at scale
• Experience producing technical designs and delivering platform solutions, including integration with enterprise monitoring, logging, alerting, and observability tooling to ensure operational excellence
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with experience supporting testing activities, release processes, vulnerability remediation, and the resolution of complex technical incidents in live environments
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to build effective relationships across engineering teams, architects, stakeholders, and delivery partners
• Ability to actively share knowledge, embrace continuous learning, and contribute to a culture of collective ownership, innovation, and continuous improvement

Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:

• Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers’ shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind
• Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think – we’re honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand
• Push for better - We don’t settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development
• Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes

You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.
