Azure Platform Engineer

This role is about building the parts of the Azure environment other teams can actually rely on: secure, well-governed, repeatable. You'll move between hands-on engineering, documentation and security alignment, and you'll get to care about the things that usually get deprioritised - platform health, operational readiness, making complex Azure services genuinely easy for other teams to adopt and support. If you're pragmatic and like being trusted to move between technical detail and business outcomes, this gives you room to do that properly.

What you'll need:

  • Strong background working as a Platform Engineer with experience designing, configuring and maintaining Azure serverless and PaaS services (Functions, App Services, App Service Plans) - so you can hit the ground running rather than learning on the job

  • Solid infrastructure-as-code skills (Terraform, Bicep or ARM) - your work stays repeatable, not held together with manual fixes

  • Experience with Azure SQL/Managed Instance, Key Vault and certificate management - the unglamorous but critical stuff that keeps platforms secure

  • Scripting ability (PowerShell, Python or Azure CLI) to automate the repetitive parts away

  • Strong documentation skills - you'll receive real credit for the standards and runbooks you leave behind, not just the code
