Every time. This role sits in a space where engineering standards are high, MOD and Defence environments are complex, and the outcome actually matters. You'll be working on secure, Azure-based platforms that support critical operations, not just internal systems or low-impact products. If you enjoy getting into the detail, solving difficult problems, and building things properly, this is the kind of work that keeps you interested. What you'll be doing You'll be designing and delivering secure Azure platforms, working closely with engineers and architects to make sure everything is robust, scalable, and built with security in mind from the start. A big part of the role is shaping how the platform is built and improved over time. Designing and managing Azure infrastructure across AKS, compute, storage and networking Building secure connectivity across hybrid and multi-cloud environments Applying and improving cloud security best practices Leading on Kubernetes environments and container deployments Driving CI/CD, automation, and Infrastructure as Code You'll also be involved in improving performance, reliability, and how teams use the platform day to day.

Strong background in Azure, ideally with AZ-104 and AZ-305 Deep understanding of networking and secure cloud architecture Hands-on Kubernetes experience in production Experience with Terraform or similar tooling Proven ability to build and improve CI/CD pipelines Beyond that, it's about mindset.
