Software Engineer (Platform - SRE)

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain tools to maximise engineering efficiency; such as but not limited to automating deployment infrastructure and database upgrades
• Seek out processes that can be improved with automation and have internal Developer Experience as a main driver.
• Collaborate and enable engineers to do their jobs more efficiently, working with other engineers on a regular basis
• Create, maintain and test our system disaster recovery process, including tooling to automate the process
• You’ll be able to choose from a selection of AI tools to support day-to-day work (e.g. code generation, investigation, automation, and documentation), and we’ll back sensible experimentation with the right guardrails.
• Handle production incidents, author blameless postmortems and enrich operational playbooks and runbooks
• Monitoring, alerting, and SLO tracking; hands-on SRE work, not just DevOps-style monitoring
• Run performance investigations (load testing, bottleneck analysis) and drive tuning across apps, data stores and AWS.
• Own cost optimisation workstreams: right-sizing, autoscaling policies, workload scheduling, storage tiering, and identifying waste across ECS/Fargate, RDS/Aurora, SQS and observability.
• Be an advocate of the GitOps methodology
