Job description

A household-name UK business is going through a major digital transformation and has set up a new venture to build its next generation of products and services. It has its own brand, its own new offices in central London, and the freedom to build its technology from a blank page.

Everything is being built from scratch on AWS, Python-first and agentic from day one. The tech team is led by an experienced interim CTO who has launched and scaled new technology businesses before, and it will grow to 20 to 30 people. This is one of the first two engineering hires.

• Build and run the deployment pipelines so every squad can ship safely and often
• Build the cloud foundations with the Principal Solutions Architect
• Be the day-to-day technical contact for the AWS teams supporting the build

• Support data, ML and LLM workloads as the agentic stack comes together

Good to have: Google Cloud or another second cloud, supporting data or ML platforms, exposure to LLMs or agentic tooling, startup or greenfield experience.

What you’ll bring

• Hands-on experience running production workloads on AWS
• Strong DevOps experience: building and running CI/CD pipelines for engineering teams
• Comfortable supporting Python-based services
• Happy working directly with a cloud provider’s technical teams

Why it’s worth a look

• Startup pace with the backing of a household name
• Work alongside AWS specialists every week
• Run the platform behind Python-based agents, models and LLMs
• Get in early as a founding engineer, as the team grows to 20 to 30

Strong DevOps engineers with good AWS experience are as welcome as cloud specialists.
