🚀 Infrastructure Engineer | London (On-site)

If you’re an engineer who thrives on building robust, scalable infrastructure from the ground up, and want to play a key role in scaling a high-growth AI platform used by global financial institutions, this is a standout opportunity.

🏢 About the Company

We’re partnered with a venture-backed AI scale-up building an enterprise-grade platform that transforms complex, manual workflows into fully automated, AI-driven systems.

Their product is already being used by major financial institutions to produce and validate client-ready outputs at scale. Following a significant Series A raise (~$75M) backed by top-tier global investors, the business is now entering a critical growth phase and expanding its engineering team.

💡 The Role

As a Platform Engineer, you’ll take ownership of the company’s cloud infrastructure, ensuring systems are secure, scalable, and production-ready as the platform grows.

This is a hands-on role where you’ll sit at the heart of engineering, driving:

• DevOps strategy
• Observability and reliability
• Security and compliance readiness

You’ll work closely with founders and engineering teams to enable rapid product delivery without compromising performance or governance.

🛠️ Key Responsibilities

• Architect, build, and maintain cloud infrastructure to support rapid scaling
• Own and improve CI/CD pipelines across backend, frontend, and data services
• Implement observability frameworks (logging, metrics, tracing, alerting)
• Prepare infrastructure for SOC 2 / ISO 27001 audits
• Drive high availability and reliability across systems
• Monitor and optimise cloud costs without sacrificing performance
• Act as a key advocate for operational excellence and engineering standards

⚙️ Tech Environment

• Cloud: Azure (AWS also beneficial)
• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform
• Containers: Docker, Kubernetes (AKS)
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions
• Scripting: Python / Bash
• Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, NoSQL
• Observability: Logging, metrics, tracing frameworks

✅ What They’re Looking For

• 4–7 years’ experience in platform / DevOps / infrastructure engineering
• Strong experience owning infrastructure end-to-end (design → production)
• Hands-on experience in cloud environments (Azure or AWS)
• Strong understanding of:
• Networking (VPCs, DNS, load balancers, VPNs)
• Security best practices and secrets management
• Observability and monitoring systems
• Experience supporting or preparing for SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar compliance frameworks
• Background in high-growth, startup, or scaling environments is highly beneficial

⚡ What to Expect

This is a high-growth, high-impact environment:

• Fast-paced, evolving priorities
• High ownership and autonomy
• Close collaboration with founders
• Opportunity to shape infrastructure at scale

If you’re at a stage where you want to make a defining impact in a high-growth AI business, this is a rare opportunity to do so.
