Job summary

Dataart Technologies seeks an experienced Platform Engineer to support and modernize a high-scale AWS infrastructure. You will approach the platform as a product, treating product engineering teams as customers and focusing on reducing developer friction.

The role blends hands-on cloud engineering with a product mindset, building self-service capabilities, golden paths, and guardrails. UK-hours alignment and on-call rotation may be required; a sign-in bonus is offered.

Qualifications

• Strong hands-on AWS platform engineering experience in production.
• Experience with Kubernetes, EKS, Docker, Terraform, and Helm.
• Strong CI/CD experience, esp. GitHub Actions and reusable pipelines.
• Experience with logging/monitoring, networking, secrets management, and service discovery.
• Experience with at least one programming or scripting language.
• Evidence of designing secure, reliable, and maintainable platform solutions.
• Experience supporting business-critical services and participation in an on-call rota.
• Experience identifying developer needs and translating them into practical platform improvements.
• Experience building self-service capabilities, reusable workflows, or guardrails adopted by engineering teams.
• Ability to use data and metrics to prioritize platform improvements and evaluate impact.

Responsibilities

• Design and evolve reliable AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform and CI/CD platform capabilities for engineering teams.
• Understand developer friction through conversations, feedback and data before choosing a technical solution.
• Build self-service capabilities, golden paths and guardrails that make the right thing easy for engineers.
• Measure outcomes (lead time, deployment frequency, reliability, cost) to prioritize work and confirm improvements.
• Work with product engineering teams to iterate on solutions and drive platform adoption.
• Balance standardization and controls with usability, so the platform enables teams rather than adding process.
• Strengthen observability, resilience, security and incident readiness.
• Take part in incident response, post-incident reviews and the on-call rota.
