Job description

Social network you want to login/join with:

Hybrid working: The places that you work from day to day will vary according to your role, your needs, and those of the business; it will be a blend of Company offices, client sites, and your home; noting that you will be unable to work at home 100% of the time.

If you are successfully offered this position, you will go through a series of pre-employment checks, including: identity, nationality (single or dual) or immigration status, employment history going back 3 continuous years, and unspent criminal record check (known as Disclosure and Barring Service).

Your role

As a senior member of the AWS Engineering Team, you will work with clients to design, build, and implement cutting-edge cloud-native solutions. With a software engineering mindset, you’ll apply your expertise in AWS and related technologies to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions. Your role will involve collaborating with cross-functional teams, taking ownership of end-to-end delivery, and acting as a trusted advisor to clients and colleagues alike.

• Drive cloud-native solutions by leveraging AWS services, DevOps principles, and modern software engineering practices.
• Build and manage robust, scalable infrastructure and serverless architectures using Infrastructure as Code, Kubernetes, and AWS serverless technologies.
• Foster continuous improvement by embracing Agile and SCRUM methodologies and facilitating stakeholder engagement to ensure alignment on project goals.
• Provide leadership and mentorship to team members, contributing to skill-building initiatives and promoting an environment of growth and learning.

You can bring your whole self to work. At Capgemini, equity, diversity, and inclusion is part of everyday life, and will be part of your working reality. We have built an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone.

Your profile

You should demonstrate:

• Experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS preferred), alongside knowledge of cloud-native application development.
• Proficiency in Kubernetes and managing containerised applications at scale.
• Strong foundation in Infrastructure as Code (such as Terraform or CloudFormation).
• Application development skills with experience in one or more programming languages such as Java, Go, or Python.
• A DevOps mindset, with practical experience in continuous delivery, GitOps, and Agile/SCRUM methodologies.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills to manage client relationships effectively.
• A commitment to continuous learning and improvement, with AWS certification as a bonus. While certification is not essential, we’re looking for candidates who are proactive about pursuing it or are already on the path to certification, with training support provided where needed.

Your security clearance

To be successfully appointed to this role, it is a requirement to obtain Developed Vetting (DV) clearance.
To obtain DV clearance, the successful applicant must have resided continuously within the United Kingdom for the last 10 years, along with other very detailed criteria and requirements.
Throughout the recruitment process, you will be asked questions about your security clearance eligibility such as, but not limited to, country of residence and nationality.
Some posts are restricted to sole UK Nationals for security reasons; therefore, you may be asked about your citizenship in the application process.

What does 'Get The Future You Want' mean to you?

You will reimagine what’s possible: creating value for the world’s leading organisations through technology to build a sustainable, more inclusive future. You will work with a range of clients all with a unique set of business, technological, and societal ambitions, which will make a real impact across the UK.
You will be empowered to explore, innovate, and progress. You will benefit from Capgemini’s ‘learning for life’ mindset, meaning you will have countless training and development opportunities from think tanks to hackathons, and access to 250,000 courses with numerous external certifications from AWS, Microsoft, Harvard ManageMentor, Cybersecurity qualifications and much more.
You’ll be bringing your unique skills and perspectives to the team, inspiring and taking inspiration from your teammates as you unlock value in everything you do. You’ll be joining a professional community of experts, who have got your back and will support you, every step of the way.
