- 7+ years in SRE or platform/infrastructure engineering, including 2+ years of leading engineers and of managing technical roadmaps and projects.
- Strong cloud infrastructure experience, ideally Azure and Kubernetes (AKS), with a track record of automating deployments and removing manual operational work.
- Solid infrastructure-as-code experience, and comfortable coding for automation.
- Hands-on experience with observability tooling such as Prometheus, Grafana/Loki, DataDog, or ElasticSearch.
- Experience leading incident response and owning platform resilience and recovery, from design through testing and evidencing the results.
- Sound technical judgement and clear communication, able to explain trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and senior leadership.
Nice to Have
- B2B SaaS experience in a heavily regulated environment (e.g. pharma, telco, banking) and comfort working under formal change control.
- Experience running platform upgrade or migration programmes at scale, ideally including CI/CD platform migrations.
- Hands-on experience with GitLab CI and GitHub Actions.
- Lead and grow the SRE team: hiring, mentoring, and setting technical direction while giving tech leads room to own their solutions.
- Shape and deliver the cloud infrastructure roadmap, covering Azure and Kubernetes, platform upgrades, and cloud cost.
- Drive infrastructure as code and self-service provisioning, limiting manual intervention.
- Own availability and reliability, from SLO/SLAs, error budgets, and monitoring to on-call and incident response that turns post-incident learning into lasting improvement.
- Keep the platform secure, current, and resilient, from identity and secrets management, network security and vulnerability remediation to version lifecycle and recovery testing.
- Lead and assist with platform migrations, partnering with key stakeholders to deliver safe, dependable deployments across environments.
- Automate operational work and build controls that produce audit-ready evidence, in line with ISO 27001 and GxP requirements, acting as the primary contact for auditors and customers on infrastructure topics.

- Mobility Budget for eco-transport, housing, or car allowance (flexible 3-pillar system)
- Group Insurance Plan with 6–12% employer pension contribution based on seniority
