You'll be involved in designing, building, and operating modern cloud-native solutions on AWS, working closely with product, platform, DevOps, and engineering teams throughout the full software development lifecycle.

Key responsibilities include:

• Designing and developing serverless applications using AWS services including Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, SQS, and SNS
• Building and maintaining scalable APIs and event-driven architectures
• Writing clean, maintainable, and well-tested code using Node.js, TypeScript, and JavaScript
• Implementing and managing Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, AWS CDK, or CloudFormation
• Building and improving CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar tooling
• Supporting platform reliability through monitoring, alerting, and observability best practices
• Applying cloud security principles, including IAM, least-privilege access, and secrets management

• Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code, including Terraform, AWS CDK, or CloudFormation
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines
• Knowledge of AWS services such as Lambda, DynamoDB, IAM, and S3
• Understanding of cloud security best practices and secure application design
• Experience working within Agile software delivery environments
• AWS certifications such as Solutions Architect, Developer Associate, or DevOps Engineer are highly desirable

Desirable Experience

Any exposure to the following would be advantageous:

• React or modern front-end frameworks
• Java, Go, C#, Rust, or other strongly typed languages
• Internal platform engineering or developer platform ownership
• Event-driven architectures using EventBridge, Kinesis, Kafka, SQS, or SNS
• Contact centre, voice, or AWS Connect environments

What's on Offer

• Remote-first working across the UK
• Exposure to large-scale cloud transformation and engineering projects
• Modern technology stack and engineering-led culture
• Clear progression opportunities across multiple seniority levels
• Ongoing investment in training, development, and certifications
• The opportunity to work alongside highly experienced cloud and software engineering professionals
