Job Description - Senior Platform Engineer

We Are Skyral:



What We Do: Team OMNIA

At OMNIA Training, we’ve brought together some of the UK’s most innovative defence training organisations under one powerful mission: to transform the British Army’s training system and create the best-trained Army in the world.


OMNIA are redefining the British Army’s collective training. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. OMNIA is at the heart of the UK’s bold Land Industrial Strategy.


This is more than a job — it’s a mission. You will be part of a high-impact, collaborative environment, where every person in our team plays a critical role in delivering OMNIA’s vision; designing, delivering, and transforming collective training.

Please note that this hybrid role will require onsite working from our site in Warminster. Due to the nature of this role, Skyral can only consider applications from candidates who live in the UK and  are eligible for Government Security Clearance.


What You’ll Be Responsible For:




  • Deploy and configure systems on MODCloud/D2S/OpenShift




  • Manage Kubernetes environments, networking and connectivity, as well as security-aligned configurations.




  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, GitOps workflows and environment configurations.




  • Support running systems by monitoring health, diagnosing platform and infrastructure issues and resolving deployment failures.




  • Work closely with integration engineers, customers and modelling engineers.




  • Support and maintain existing simulation and training systems, as well as existing deployment and virtualisation tools.




What We Are Looking For:




  • Strong systems and infrastructure mindset




  • Comfortable working across modern and legacy environments




  • Calm under pressure during outages or failures




  • Pragmatic and delivery-focused




  • Strong collaborator across engineering disciplines




Key Technical Proficiencies:




  • Expert working knowledge of Kubernetes, Teraform, Ansible and Docker.




  • Understanding of Distributed Systems in production.




  • Understanding of DS2 (OpenShift) tooling and constraints as well as MODCloud deployment models.




  • Experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines with automated deployment workflows.




  • Strong understanding of Network fundamentals, service to service communications and distributed system connectivity. 




  • Experience in developing with Go or Python as well as shell scripting.





What We Can Offer You:

 🌴Unlimited Paid Holiday - we value and support the need to maintain a strong work-life balance. 

🏡 Hybrid Working - we understand that a one-size-fits all approach doesn’t suit everyone. We have an office based in Central London if you prefer working in an office. 

Flexible Working Hours -  We’re not bound by the 9-to-5 model. Collaborate with your manager on determining a work schedule that suits you. 

🍼 Enhanced Parental Leave - we’re proud to offer 26 weeks maternity leave and 4 weeks paternity leave at full pay.
 
🏥 Private Medical & Dental Insurance - offered through Bupa. 

💲Honest about Compensation - We maintain a well defined salary range which a member of the Talent Team will discuss with you during the first call. 

Healthy Snacks & Drinks Provided - If you decide to come into the office, we have a range of snacks and drinks for you to enjoy.

At Skyral, we are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equality and inclusion. We also ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to reasonable adjustments. If you require such accommodations during the job application process we ask that you inform a member of our Talent Team.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
