Position Overview

• Build and Optimise Core Services : Develop scalable, reliable, and extensible platforms, services, and tools using modern backend languages like Java, Python, or Go. Focus on automation, reliability, and security in all development efforts.

Develop self-service tools and processes to empower engineering teams to independently manage their infrastructure.
• Platform Security and Compliance : Prioritise security by maintaining up-to-date base images, applying security patches, and implementing robust security measures. Create and maintain custom Amazon Machine Images (AMIs), optimising them for performance and security.
