Why join us?

We’re transforming at pace. Investing billions in our people, data and tech to change the way we meet the needs of our 28 million customers. We’re growing, and we’d love you to be part of the journey.

What we’re looking for:

• Deep, hands-on Kubernetes experience: workload design, networking, autoscaling, RBAC, and multi-tenancy isolation.
• Strong Terraform and infrastructure-as-code skills, with a track record of managing production cloud estates.
• Substantial GCP experience (GKE, IAM, VPC/networking, Cloud Build/Artifact Registry, or equivalents) - or comparable depth in another major cloud with willingness to work in GCP.
• Container and VM hardening expertise, including image minimisation, runtime security, and vulnerability management.
• Practical experience implementing egress control, network policy, and segmentation in cloud-native environments.
• Strong CI/CD engineering skills and experience embedding security controls into delivery pipelines.
• Observability expertise across logging, tracing, and metrics, including designing for auditability and evidence retention.
• A security-first mindset with the judgement to balance researcher velocity against containment requirements.

And any of these would be great:

• Experience building platforms for offensive security, malware analysis, or other high-risk workloads requiring strong isolation.
• Experience supporting AI/ML or LLM workloads, including GPU scheduling, inference infrastructure, or agent runtime environments.
• Cloud or Kubernetes certifications, or cyber security related qualifications and trainings.
• Contributions to open-source infrastructure, platform, or security tooling.
• Experience operating within highly regulated environments such as financial services, including evidencing controls to audit and risk functions.
