JOB PURPOSE:

The Group Infrastructure Engineer 2 is an individual contributor who designs, implements, automates, secures, and supports resilient infrastructure across Microsoft Azure and on-premises environments. The role owns defined components of cloud services, compute, storage, networking, virtualization, operating systems, containers, monitoring, backup, disaster recovery, and infrastructure security. Working with Application, Database, Security, DevOps, Service Management, regional, and business teams, the engineer helps keep Ports and Terminals platforms scalable, reliable, secure, cost-conscious, and aligned with enterprise architecture and operational standards.

Automation is a core part of the role. The engineer builds and maintains infrastructure-as-code and operational automation, contributes to platform designs and change reviews, and applies standard patterns to reduce manual effort. They also develop and coach junior engineers, building the technical depth, operational rigor, and problem-solving skills the team needs as business demands evolve. The role supports a culture of accountability, continuous learning, collaboration, and high performance.

The engineer leads troubleshooting for well-scoped incidents and problems, drives root-cause analysis to permanent fixes, and supports major incident response under senior direction. They identify recurring issues and gaps in tooling, documentation, and standards, then deliver improvements that strengthen the wider estate.
