The role

We’re looking for an AWS-focused cloud engineer to take full, end-to-end ownership of our cloud infrastructure. This isn’t a ticket-driven support role. You’ll be the person who understands our infrastructure better than anyone, decides how it should be designed, and makes it happen.

Your first months will focus on understanding our current setup, mapping it into a clear architecture, finding the gaps in security, reliability, scalability and cost, and then leading the redesign and rebuild. After that, you’ll own and run the infrastructure as it grows with new products and clients.

What you’ll do

- Audit and document our existing AWS environment, including accounts, networking, compute, data stores, access and deployments
- Design a target architecture that follows AWS Well-Architected principles and supports multiple products and client-specific deployments
- Identify and prioritise gaps in security, resilience, observability, performance and cost, and build a practical roadmap to close them
- Rebuild and migrate infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code, with minimal disruption to running services
- Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines with our engineering team so deployments are repeatable and safe
- Own security and access, including IAM, network isolation, encryption, secrets management, logging and audit readiness
- Support deployments in different regions and in client-owned AWS accounts, with attention to data residency and compliance requirements
- Set up monitoring, alerting, backups and disaster recovery, and respond to incidents
- Track and optimise cloud costs




- Write clear architecture documentation and be the go-to advisor on cloud decisions for the wider team

What we’re looking for

- 3+ years of hands-on experience in cloud or DevOps engineering, with AWS as your main platform
- Strong experience across core AWS services, including VPC, IAM, EC2, ECS or EKS, Lambda, RDS, S3, CloudFront, API Gateway and CloudWatch
- Production experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, AWS CDK or CloudFormation)
- Experience building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or similar)
- Solid understanding of cloud security, networking and multi-account setups (AWS Organizations, Control Tower or similar)
- Experience designing or re-architecting infrastructure, not just maintaining it
- Comfort working independently, making decisions and owning outcomes
- Explicit communicator who can explain technical trade-offs to both engineers and leadership

Nice to have

- AWS certifications (Solutions Architect Associate or Professional, DevOps Engineer Professional, Security Specialty)
- Experience with multi-tenant SaaS or enterprise B2B platforms
- Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2 or GDPR
- Experience with containerised workloads and Kubernetes
- Exposure to automotive, manufacturing or supply-chain domains

Why join us

- Full ownership of the cloud platform at a growing product company, with a real say in how it’s built
- Work with global enterprise clients on regulation-driven products
- A small, fast-moving team with direct access to leadership
- Competitive compensation
