Job Title
Senior Platform Enablement Engineer
Job Description
So, who are we?
IG Group is a FTSE 100 fintech operating across five continents, serving over 1.3m customers and handling billions of dollars in transactions – built on scale, trust, and proof. We didn't pivot to innovation; it's how we've always operated. What that means for the people who work here is real: genuinely complex problems to solve, the technology and resources to tackle them properly, and the kind of scope that's rare in established businesses.
The bar is high – bring a curious and forward-thinking mindset and we'll give you the platform to define what comes next.
Join us at IG – the future gets built here.
Your team
Platform Enablement helps engineering teams adopt cloud platform capabilities confidently and independently. We're an advisory and acceleration function — we provide guidance, patterns, and reusable tooling, not approvals, and not ongoing operational support. Success is measured by what teams can do without us, not by how many tickets we close.
Your role in the Team’s Success
We're looking for a senior engineer who can lead enablement engagements end-to-end — from initial architectural advice through to a team operating fully independently. You'll work directly with engineering teams at varying levels of platform maturity, translate patterns and anti-patterns into practical guidance, and hold the line on engineering standards across the organisation.
This is a hands-on technical role with real influence: you'll shape how teams build, not just what they build.
What you’ll do
Provide architectural design advice and guidance rooted in established patterns, anti-patterns, and organisational standards.
Lead time-boxed enablement engagements with explicit scope, milestones, and a defined handover.
Contribute to and evolve a library of reusable Infrastructure-as-Code modules, CI/CD pipeline templates, and golden paths.
Define and promote engineering standards that ensure consistency, qua
