About the Job
Role Overview
The Automation Engineer builds the automation that removes manual, repetitive work from the running of enterprise infrastructure and platform services. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on operational automation: provisioning, configuration, patching, routine operational tasks, and automated remediation.

Working within an established automation practice and alongside senior engineers, the Automation Engineer takes defined automation requirements and delivers reliable, well-tested, reusable automation. The measure of the work is straightforward: fewer manual steps, fewer tickets, and fewer repeat interventions by human operators.

The role complements the DevOps Platform Engineer, who builds the CI/CD and developer tooling platform. This role concentrates on automating infrastructure and operational activity across Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, and the on-premise estate.

• Convert manual runbooks into tested, repeatable, parameterized automation.
• Reduce ticket-based provisioning by delivering self-service automation that colleagues can run safely themselves.

Configuration Management and Infrastructure as Code
• Develop and maintain Ansible playbooks, roles, and collections, executed through Ansible Automation Platform.
• Build and maintain Terraform configurations and modules for repeatable infrastructure provisioning.
• Keep environments consistent by detecting and correcting configuration drift.
