£600–£650 p/d (Outside IR35) 5-month initial contract (extensions likely) Hybrid: London (2 days/week on-site)

The Role

Join a newly formed Cloud Platform Engineering team building a greenfield Azure platform for a regulated banking venture. You’ll join as a senior individual contributor, taking ownership of the most complex, high-risk platform engineering work across a large Azure estate in a regulated financial services environment.

This is not a people management role — you’ll lead through your code, your technical judgement, and your ability to turn ambitious platform designs into secure, scalable, production-ready infrastructure.

You will:

Own and deliver the highest-risk, most complex or ambiguous platform work Build and enhance Azure landing zones and internal platform services Deliver infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, self-service tooling and observability end-to-end Challenge design assumptions with a “show me the code” approach Pair with engineers to unblock delivery and lift team-wide engineering standards

Non-Negotiables:

8+ years infrastructure engineering in Azure environments Terraform expertise at scale: modules, composition, patterns and anti-patterns Strong Azure networking, security and governance knowledge Experience in regulated environments (FS, healthcare, government, etc.) CI/CD and automation experience (Azure DevOps/GitHub Actions, scripting) Ability to troubleshoot complex infra, , networking and security issues TDD/automated testing for infrastructure changes Experience mentoring and guiding other engineers

What You’ll Work With:

Terraform: modular IaC, policy integration, testing and validation Azure Core: networking, security, , governance, landing zones Azure PaaS: App Service, Functions, container platforms (ACA/AKS) CI/CD: GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps with full automation Observability: logging, metrics, dashboards and alerting Incident Response: diagnosing and resolving complex platform issues

Why Join:

Shape a secure, scalable Azure platform in a regulated financial services environment Own complex landing zones and platform capabilities that have organisation-wide impact Influence engineering standards, patterns and delivery practices Work in a collaborative, Kanban-driven team focused on high-quality delivery Lead through hands-on engineering, pairing and code reviews — not hierarchy

If you enjoy solving deep technical problems, shipping high-quality infrastructure, and elevating engineering teams through hands-on expertise, this role will suit you perfectly.
