• Liaising with colleagues across the bank, you'll share engineering best practices, allowing you to provide thought leadership while developing solutions
• This role offers considerable variety as well as stakeholder engagement

What you'll do

As an Infrastructure Engineer in DDI, you'll contribute to and manage the selection, creation, and maintenance of technologies required to meet the needs of our customers, strategic targets, and architecture outcomes. You'll also be responsible for developing products using modern engineering practices and tools.

We'll look to you to collaborate with Product Owners to develop product solutions and manage the lifecycle of the team's products. You'll also support engineered products to respond to customer feedback and new feature requests, and you'll resolve production issues and help customers consume our products.

Additionally, you'll:

• Build and leverage relationships with colleagues across the bank to make sure decisions made are commercially focussed and create long term value

On top of this, you'll need a clear understanding of infrastructure layers or stacks, and a broad knowledge across multiple platforms such as servers, operating systems, virtualisation, or networks.

Along with experience of contributing to roadmaps and strategies and working closely with third parties on assurance of their output and performance, you'll need an advanced understanding of DNS, DHCP and IPAM (DDI) technologies.
