Role overview

We are seeking an experienced Infrastructure & Development Engineer to lead the transformation of our internal platform. This is a senior, high-impact engineering role to move legacy systems to a modern, self-service platform and Infrastructure as Code model. You will stabilise critical systems, design and build an Internal Developer Platform, and drive strategic architectural improvements across virtualization, storage, networking, and CI/CD.

What you will do

• Perform deep analysis and stabilisation of legacy systems, identifying single points of failure and quick wins such as automated VM cleanup and improved monitoring.
• Lead design and development of an internal development platform with GitOps, Infrastructure as Code, and self-service developer workflows.
• Define and implement SLIs and SLOs for core services and create runbooks for top incidents.
• Drive a platform transformation to increase automation, reduce manual operations, and eliminate single points of failure across bare metal and cloud environments.
• Work hands-on with Kubernetes, KubeVirt, Terraform/Terragrunt, Ansible, GitOps tools, and build custom tooling in Python or Go as needed.
• Collaborate with the Infrastructure Director and cross-functional teams to make strategic architectural decisions and mentor other engineers.

Requirements

• Proven experience migrating legacy infrastructure to modern platforms at scale.
• Production-grade Kubernetes experience, including multi-tenant deployments and platform hardening.
• Infrastructure as Code expertise with Terraform and configuration automation experience with Ansible or similar tools.
• Extensive Linux experience at scale, managing hundreds to thousands of servers.
• Network fundamentals and experience with underlay and overlay networking concepts such as BGP, VXLAN, and DNS at scale.
• Experience with virtualization stacks, storage systems such as Ceph, and multi-cloud environments including AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Strong systems thinking, ability to operate in ambiguous situations, and track record of pragmatic trade-offs between fix, replace, and workaround.

Nice to have

• Experience with KubeVirt, KubeOps, Cephadm, Juniper networking, and migrating from OpenNebula to modern platforms.
• Background in building Internal Developer Platforms or GitOps-driven workflows using ArgoCD or Flux.
• Experience with observability stacks and setting SLIs/SLOs for platform services.

Why this role matters

This role offers the chance to design the future infrastructure used by thousands of customers, to lead a funded transformation with executive backing, and to have significant technical decision-making authority and ownership.

Benefits

• Competitive senior-level compensation.
