Some careers shine brighter than others.

Your career opportunity

The CTO Platform Engineering & Architecture (CTOp) organisation sits within the Chief Technology Office (CTO) and is responsible for building next-gen application and AI platforms that remove toil and reduce operational overhead through integrated controls and open-source solutions making software delivery faster, safer, and more reliable every time. CTOp also sets architecture and engineering standards, builds core application, developer and AI platforms, and automates controls so teams can move code (or containers) to production quickly and consistently.

The position is a hands-on self-driven, highly autonomous technical engineer who is genuinely passionate about modern cloud architecture, automation, and platform engineering.
The expectation for this role is that you are someone who doesn't wait for a detailed specification to act. Instead, you identify friction, propose solutions, and drive initiatives to completion. You thrive on exploring emerging tech, staying ahead of industry trends, and bringing fresh, pragmatic ideas to the table. Whether you are architecting an internal developer platform or advising a client on complex cloud topology, you bring high energy, clear ownership, and technical excellence.

What you'll do

1) Autonomous Execution & Platform Deliverables
Drive Platform Roadmap: Autonomously lead the design, build, and evolution of enterprise-grade cloud landing zones, developer self-service tools, and platform primitives.
IaC & Automation: Write reusable, production-grade Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and deployment pipelines to enable seamless platform delivery.
Kubernetes Ecosystem: Architect and maintain container platform primitives (EKS/AKS/GKE), GitOps workflows, and ingress/networking layers.
Ownership & SRE: Take end-to-end accountability for platform reliability, performance tuning, cost optimisation, and observability.
2) Customer Consultancy & Engineering Solutioning
Technical Advisory: Serve as the primary SME in technical discovery sessions, customer design reviews, and architectural alignment meetings.
Collaborative Solutioning: Partner directly with software engineers, product owners, and client leads to turn business problems into executable technical blueprints.
Technology Advocacy: Evaluate new cloud technologies and frameworks, championing best practices across internal teams and customer environments.

What you'll need to succeed in this role

High autonomy: Demonstrated track record leading complex technical initiatives with minimal supervision.
Technology enthusiasm: Active interest in the evolving cloud-native landscape (Kubernetes, platform automation, GitOps, zero-trust).
Consultative presence: Strong verbal and written communication skills; confident whiteboarding solutions and advising senior/executive stakeholders.
Enterprise navigation: Proven ability to deliver in a large, regulated, matrix organisation - working effectively across security, risk, architecture, and operations.

Full-Stack Infrastructure Capabilities
Public cloud: SME-level public cloud skills in a multi-cloud setting. This role is GCP-focused, but were open to strong AWS/Azure practitioners motivated to transition to GCP.
Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, OpenTofu, Pulumi, or native IaC tooling.
Containers & orchestration: Deep hands-on expertise with Kubernetes (GKE/EKS/AKS), Helm, and container security.
