Lead DevOps Engineer

Lead DevOps / Platform Engineer

London | Hybrid | £110k-150k + Equity

A fast-growing AI healthtech startup, founded by ex-Palantir engineers, is hiring a senior hands-on infrastructure leader to own platform engineering, deployments and operational reliability as the company scales.

This is not a narrow support-style DevOps role.

You’ll take ownership across:

• Kubernetes & container orchestration

• AWS cloud infrastructure

• Terraform / Terragrunt IaC

• CI/CD & release automation

• Customer deployment environments

• Observability, telemetry & monitoring

• Security, reliability & infrastructure standards

The product sits within AI / drug discovery research, with enterprise customers already live and strong growth underway.

Looking for someone who has genuinely owned production infrastructure - not just operated within a narrow function.

Strong fit for backgrounds in:

> Platform Engineering

> SRE

> Infrastructure Engineering

> Cloud / DevOps Leadership

Particularly from high-performing startup, scaleup, fintech, infra or developer tooling environments.
