More:

We are our Infrastructure as a Service Engineering group, responsible for designing, implementing, integrating, and maintaining large-scale global physical and virtual server infrastructure. Our team evaluates, certifies, integrates, and supports a broad range of infrastructure technologies, including hardware platforms, hypervisors, Linux operating systems, system configuration tooling, critical infrastructure services, automation platforms, load balancing, high availability solutions, and virtualization management technologies. We play a key role in enabling DevOps practices by delivering real-time APIs and automation capabilities that support infrastructure-as-code patterns and backend integrations that translate desired state into reliable production outcomes. We are seeking a skilled and experienced engineer to join our Platform Engineering team for a 12-month contract in Glasgow, working onsite three days per week, with an immediate start and a focus on integrating, testing, securing, and improving infrastructure codebases. We value self-starters who can operate effectively in a complex engineering environment, with opportunities to contribute to platform reliability, security, and engineering best practices.
