Cloud Platform Engineer (Senior / Lead) Department: Technology Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time Location: London Reporting To: Description About the role We are looking for a hands on Senior / Lead Cloud Platform Engineer to shape and run the multi cloud foundation that our engineering, data and product teams build on everyday. This is a senior individual contributor / tech lead role at the heart of a modern hybrid cloud strategy. Our goal is to make cloud infrastructure effectively invisible and commoditised for internal teams: engineers should ship through self service golden paths and a well designed internal developer platform, without needing to understand the underlying cloud plumbing. You will treat platform capabilities as products, with clear APIs, paved roads, strong defaults and great developer experience. A defining part of this role is preparing our infrastructure for a future (or present) where some "engineers" are AI agents. You will design platforms, guardrails and interfaces that let both human engineers and autonomous AI agents provision, operate and optimise infrastructure safely - and you will use AI agents heavily yourself to automate and optimise day to day platform work. Security is central, not an afterthought. You will help drive a zero trust approach across identity, network, workloads and data, ensuring the platform is secure by default for humans and machine/agent identities alike. You will also work closely with our data function, helping design and optimise the data pipelines, data stores and large scale analytics infrastructure (for example BigQuery and similar warehouses) that the business depends on. What you'll do Design, build and operate our multi cloud and hybrid cloud platform across at least two of the top three providers (AWS, Azure and/or Google Cloud), plus on prem/hybrid connectivity where needed. Build and own an internal developer platform and self service "golden paths" that make cloud infrastructure feel invisible and commoditised for engineering, data and product teams; and their AI agents. Deliver everything as code: infrastructure as code, GitOps, reusable modules, CI/CD pipelines and policy as code guardrails. Leverage AI agents extensively to automate and optimise platform work-provisioning, cost and performance optimisation, incident response, remediation and documentation. Prepare the infrastructure for AI agents as first class "engineers": safe machine identities, scoped permissions, sandboxes, approval workflows and audit trails so agents can provision and operate infrastructure within tight guardrails. Embed a zero trust security model across identity, network, workloads and data for both human and machine/agent identities; secure by default, least privilege, secrets management and continuous compliance. Apply SRE practices-SLOs/SLIs, observability, capacity planning, resilience and blameless incident management-to keep the platform reliable and cost efficient. Partner with data engineering to design and optimise data pipelines, data stores and large scale analytics infrastructure such as BigQuery, including query, cost and performance tuning. Mentor engineers, set technical direction and champion strong platform and security engineering standards across the organisation. What you'll need to succeed Essential requirements: Extensive hands on experience designing, building and operating production cloud infrastructure at senior or lead level. Multi cloud experience across at least two of the top three providers (AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud), including a recognised professional level cloud certification for each of those two providers (for example AWS Solutions Architect / DevOps Engineer Professional, Azure Solutions Architect / DevOps Engineer Expert, or Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect / DevOps Engineer). Strong background in modern hybrid cloud architecture and connecting cloud with on prem/edge environments. Deep infrastructure as code and automation skills (e.g. Terraform/OpenTofu, Pulumi, Ansible), GitOps and CI/CD, plus containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes). Proven experience building internal developer platforms, self service golden paths and platform as a product to abstract away cloud complexity for engineering teams. Practical experience using AI agents / LLM based tooling to automate and optimise infrastructure work, and interest in designing infrastructure that AI agents can operate safely. Strong security engineering mindset with hands on zero trust experience across identity, network, workloads and data-including secrets management, least privilege IAM and machine/workload identity. Solid programming/scripting ability (e.g. Python, Go) and strong observability, reliability and cost optimisation practices. Desirable requirements: Experience working as a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) with SLOs/SLIs, error budgets and incident management. A third top tier cloud certification, or specialist security/Kubernetes certifications (e.g. CKA/CKS). Significant data engineering experience: designing and operating data pipelines and data stores, and optimising databases and large scale data infrastructure such as BigQuery (including query, cost and performance tuning). Experience preparing environments for autonomous or agentic workloads-sandboxes, scoped machine identities, approval workflows and audit trails. Experience in a regulated or fintech environment. Your approach to work: Pragmatic and hands on, with a strong bias for automation and eliminating toil. Product mindset- you treat internal engineers (human and AI) as your customers and obsess over their experience. Security and reliability first, collaborative, and comfortable leading and mentoring. Important to know Location: We have multiple offices across the UK. We have a new office in London which is becoming more central to where we collaborate in person. We have a flexible working policy with a few days per week in the office. Right to Work: Applicants must already hold a legal right to work in the UK without time restrictions and without the need for future sponsorship. We are unable to provide Skilled Worker visa sponsorship.

Job Description - Platform Chapter Lead - Engineering (17129) Job Description Platform Chapter Lead - Engineering ( 17129 ) Description We are easyJet - a FTSE-250 listed, £multi-billion low-cost airline that serves tens of millions of customers every single year. If you're reading this, you have probably already been an easyJet customer, and you'll know that there is no more iconic (or Orange!) travel brand in Europe. We fly more than 1,207 routes, connecting 38 countries across Europe, and employ more than 18,000 colleagues. We're on a mission to make low-cost travel easy - and whatever your role here, you'll connect millions of people to what they love using Europe's best airline network, great value fares, and friendly service. What makes us easyJet? Our Promise Behaviours - we are Safe, Bold, Welcoming and Challenging. Four Behaviours. One Spirit. One easyJet. About the role We're modernising how we build and ship software across our digital and operational estate. As Head of Platform Engineering you'll own the strategy, delivery and operation of our internal developer platform, and lead the group of teams behind it. Platform engineering at an airline is a genuinely interesting problem: revenue-critical services that have to stay up through seasonal peaks and disruption-driven traffic spikes, a large and evolving estate, and real pace. You'll set direction, lead through your managers, and own a budget - and while you won't be writing code, you'll be close enough to challenge technical choices and hold your own in a design debate. Why now.We're investing in platform engineering as a core capability, and this is a pivotal hire. There's genuine scope to shape the teams, define how the platform is built and run, and raise the engineering bar - not to maintain a finished thing, but to build it into something great. Reports to:Director of Engineering Direct reports:4-5 team leads / engineering managers (Platform & DevOps) What you'll do Lead the teams. Lead 4-5 Platform, DevOps and Developer Enablement teams through their managers; develop your leaders, plan capacity, and hire and grow strong talent. Own the strategy. Define and drive the roadmap for our Internal Developer Platform and tooling, set technical direction with Enterprise Architecture, and make deliberate build/buy calls. Own delivery. Hold end-to-end accountability for delivery - quality, predictability and pace - surfacing risks early and driving continuous improvement. Own the budget. Own the operating budget (opex) and headcount, run a cost-effective tooling strategy, and embed FinOps to manage cloud spend and demonstrate value. Drive developer experience. Make the platform something teams want to use - paved paths, less friction - using metrics (e.g. DORA) and real feedback to keep improving it. Keep it reliable and compliant. Oversee performance, resilience and observability for revenue-critical services through peak traffic, and maintain security and compliance (e.g. PCI-DSS, GDPR). Bring the business with you. Align platform strategy with business goals and translate technical trade-offs into clear decisions, up to executive level. Requirements of the Role What you'll bring You live and breathe modern platform engineering - Continuous Delivery, Team Topologies, developer experience and the craft of building strong engineering culture. These aren't buzzwords to you; they're how you think. A track record of leading multiple engineering teams at scale (as a leader of managers/leads), setting platform strategy and turning it into delivered outcomes. Ownership of budget and headcount, with the commercial judgement to balance cost, speed and risk.

Job Description - Platform Chapter Lead - Engineering (17129) Job Description Platform Chapter Lead - Engineering ( 17129 ) Description We are easyJet - a FTSE-250 listed, £multi-billion low-cost airline that serves tens of millions of customers every single year. If you're reading this, you have probably already been an easyJet customer, and you'll know that there is no more iconic (or Orange!) travel brand in Europe. We fly more than 1,207 routes, connecting 38 countries across Europe, and employ more than 18,000 colleagues. We're on a mission to make low-cost travel easy - and whatever your role here, you'll connect millions of people to what they love using Europe's best airline network, great value fares, and friendly service. What makes us easyJet? Our Promise Behaviours - we are Safe, Bold, Welcoming and Challenging. Four Behaviours. One Spirit. One easyJet. About the role We're modernising how we build and ship software across our digital and operational estate. As Head of Platform Engineering you'll own the strategy, delivery and operation of our internal developer platform, and lead the group of teams behind it. Platform engineering at an airline is a genuinely interesting problem: revenue-critical services that have to stay up through seasonal peaks and disruption-driven traffic spikes, a large and evolving estate, and real pace. You'll set direction, lead through your managers, and own a budget - and while you won't be writing code, you'll be close enough to challenge technical choices and hold your own in a design debate. Why now.We're investing in platform engineering as a core capability, and this is a pivotal hire. There's genuine scope to shape the teams, define how the platform is built and run, and raise the engineering bar - not to maintain a finished thing, but to build it into something great. Reports to:Director of Engineering Direct reports:4-5 team leads / engineering managers (Platform & DevOps) What you'll do Lead the teams. Lead 4-5 Platform, DevOps and Developer Enablement teams through their managers; develop your leaders, plan capacity, and hire and grow strong talent. Own the strategy. Define and drive the roadmap for our Internal Developer Platform and tooling, set technical direction with Enterprise Architecture, and make deliberate build/buy calls. Own delivery. Hold end-to-end accountability for delivery - quality, predictability and pace - surfacing risks early and driving continuous improvement. Own the budget. Own the operating budget (opex) and headcount, run a cost-effective tooling strategy, and embed FinOps to manage cloud spend and demonstrate value. Drive developer experience. Make the platform something teams want to use - paved paths, less friction - using metrics (e.g. DORA) and real feedback to keep improving it. Keep it reliable and compliant. Oversee performance, resilience and observability for revenue-critical services through peak traffic, and maintain security and compliance (e.g. PCI-DSS, GDPR). Bring the business with you. Align platform strategy with business goals and translate technical trade-offs into clear decisions, up to executive level. Requirements of the Role What you'll bring You live and breathe modern platform engineering - Continuous Delivery, Team Topologies, developer experience and the craft of building strong engineering culture. These aren't buzzwords to you; they're how you think. A track record of leading multiple engineering teams at scale (as a leader of managers/leads), setting platform strategy and turning it into delivered outcomes. Ownership of budget and headcount, with the commercial judgement to balance cost, speed and risk. Strong cloud-native and modern DevOps background - cloud (ideally AWS) and Kubernetes, CI/CD, infrastructure as code and observability - with enough engineering depth (e.g. Java, .NET, Python) to be credible with strong engineers.
