What will I be doing?

• As a Senior Infrastructure Engineer, you will be aligned to AWS whilst operating as part of a Product team where you'll have the autonomy to design, implement, and maintain this infrastructure in support of CRUK's strategy.
• Designing, building, and maintaining areas of CRUK's complex hybrid (on-premise & multi-cloud) infrastructure estate, ensuring they are highly available, reliable, cost-efficient, and secure.
• Ensuring best practices are followed and the infrastructure is actively maintained, patched, and updated with a user-focused approach.
• Coaching less experienced engineers both inside and outside Platform Engineering, to help them develop skills, support self-service, and provide governance to control costs and risks (e.g. software engineers learning cloud skills, working with cloud SDKs, and using self-service infrastructure).
• Bringing expertise in modern infrastructure approaches within your specialist area, promoting knowledge sharing, team learning, and sharing best practices.
• Producing and maintaining high-quality documentation to ensure the infrastructure estate can be easily understood, supported, and developed.
• Enabling agile change to meet the needs of the charity and tech teams and build/manage workloads on the infrastructure.
