Job Title: Senior Platform Engineer

Who are we?

Texecom Ltd is a leading manufacturer and provider of professional security products, systems, and services. Our innovative solutions are designed to protect the things you care about, wherever they are.

Texecom

Cloud is the approved alarm signalling platform those systems depend on. When an intruder alarm activates, our platform is what carries that signal to a monitoring centre. It is certified against EN 50136 for alarm transmission, and it also hosts the suite of subscription digital services that sit at the core of Texecom''s future strategy.

That gives the platform an unusual combination of constraints. It has to behave like critical infrastructure on availability and signalling integrity, and like a modern product platform on delivery pace. Both at once, on the same estate.

What we need?

We are recruiting two hands-on Senior Platform Engineers to own and advance the AWS platform on which Texecom''s cloud services are built, deployed and operated. Together you will form the core of a new India-based Platform Engineering team.

You will set the patterns that the wider engineering organisation builds on, operating as a resilient team able to cover the other''s work, so that no part of the platform depends on one person.

How can you help us?

As a Senior Platform Engineer at Texecom, you will be accountable for work of this kind

- Multiaccount AWS foundation. Account vending and organisational unit structure, a compliantbydefault landing zone, IAM Identity Center role modelling, and getting least privilege to hold across a growing estate.

- Security baseline. Organisationwide security tooling, including threat detection and vulnerability scanning, with findings turned into remediation rather than reports.

- Data layer.

Aurora

MySQL & DynamoDB at production scale: bluegreen deployment, schema migration safety and rollback, replication topology. Day-to-day database operations are part of the job, not someone else''s.

- Delivery pipelines. Pipeline architecture in Bitbucket Pipelines and AWS CodeBuild, GitOps service manifests, Step Functions deployment orchestration, and guardrails that make the safe path the easy path.

- Device and messaging estate. MQTT broker infrastructure and AWS IoT Core, carrying live traffic from a field estate of alarm panels.

- Observability and cost. Monitoring, alerting, metrics,



structured logging and correlation IDs as a platform capability rather than a per-service afterthought, plus auto-scaling and right-sizing where the saving is real and the risk is understood.

- Platform tooling. Internal tooling and automation, largely in Go and Python, including credential and identity tooling used by engineering and operations.

- Golden paths, not application services.

Platform

Engineering builds the foundations and the paved road that development teams deploy on. Application services are owned by the teams that build them.

- Raising the floor. Training and mentoring the wider Cloud Operations team in platform engineering practice.

The successful candidate should have

- Deep, handson AWS. You can design an account and identity model. You have operated production RDS or Aurora and you understand what can go wrong, and how to proactively track, monitor and prevent issues.

- Terraform as your primary tool, at a level where you own modules and shared state.

- An automationfirst mindset, applied to operational toil as readily as to provisioning.

- Strong scripting and tooling skills in one or more of Python, Go, PowerShell or TypeScript, building maintainable tooling rather than throwaway scripts.

- CI/CD design rather than CI/CD usage: pipeline architecture, artefact promotion, continuous delivery, release safety and rollback, and the release patterns that make frequent change safe, including blue-green and canary releases and feature toggling.

- Security as an engineering discipline. Least privilege, secret management, blastradius reasoning, and a working understanding of regulated or compliance constrained environments. ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and NIST alignment experience is valuable.

- Architectural judgment at enterprise scale, across distributed systems: what is secure to change, in what order, and what has to be proven first.

- Production operations experience. You have been on call for a live service, led an incident through to resolution, and written up what changed afterwards.

- Experience of the full software development lifecycle, from requirements and design through to debug, test and operation.

- Experience of Scrum and Agile delivery, and familiarity with Atlassian tooling (Jira, Confluence).

How you work matters as much as what you know

We hire for behaviour as much as technical depth. The qualities below are assessed during the process, not assumed.

- You test designs before they ship. You raise the difficult question early, including on decisions that have already been agreed, and you back it with evidence.

- You get to the real problem.



You clarify the requirement, and you separate out issues that have been bundled together, before you start building.

- You deliver what was agreed. You keep scope tight, note good ideas for later, and make tradeoffs visible rather than absorbing them.

- You respect shared work. You coordinate changes that affect other teams, and you resolve conflicts through conversation rather than by overriding.

- You work from evidence. When a cost, constraint or assumption matters, you verify it.

- You share what you know. Your work comes with documentation a colleague can act on, and you build knowledge across the team rather than holding it.

- You value code review. You give thorough, constructive reviews and expect the same in return. Every change is peer reviewed before it merges, including yours.

- You raise risk early and openly, including when it makes a decision harder.

It would be an advantage if the candidate had

- Python at production quality.

- MySQL or Aurora internals, including replication and migration tooling.

- MQTT or IoT messaging at scale.

- Test automation within delivery pipelines.

- FinOps experience: cost modelling, autoscaling economics and commitmentbased pricing.

- AWS security services at organisation scale, such as GuardDuty, Inspector and Security Hub.

- Windows as well as Linux build and packaging targets.

- CloudFormation or CDK/CDKTF, to understand and migrate existing infrastructure.

How We Work

- Infrastructure as Code by default. Production changes go through code, with a controlled and recorded route for the rare exceptions.

- Deployment through approved pipelines, promoting through lower environments into production.

- Structured logging with correlation IDs, as a baseline across services.

- Significant design changes are written up as RFCs and reviewed by our Design Authority. Engineers write them. The aim is visible, well-reasoned decisions, not extra process.

- Engineering standards are minimum expectations, increasingly enforced through tooling.
