We're looking for an experienced Infrastructure Automation Engineer to take ownership of and evolve a large-scale PowerShell automation estate across cloud and on-premises infrastructure. While this role sits within the Identity team, the primary focus is on automation engineering, workflow development, and infrastructure provisioning, rather than day-to-day identity administration.

This is an opportunity to join a forward-thinking organisation where you'll modernise automation practices, improve code management and deployment processes, and help shape the future of infrastructure delivery.

The Role

You will:

• Design and develop infrastructure automation solutions across Azure, VMware, Active Directory, Entra ID and Microsoft 365.
• Build robust PowerShell automation from the ground up, rather than simply maintaining existing scripts.
• Improve code management practices through repositories, version control, DevOps pipelines and deployment automation.
• Enhance an established PowerShell-based provisioning platform responsible for:
• Azure and VMware deployments
• Domain joining
• DNS configuration
• IP addressing
• Infrastructure build automation
• Develop and improve account creation workflows using Okta Workflows, integrating HR and student systems with Active Directory and Entra ID.
• Deliver solutions through the full lifecycle, including design, testing, documentation, deployment, operational handover and knowledge transfer.

What We're Looking For:

• Strong commercial experience developing infrastructure automation using PowerShell.
• Experience with source control, code repositories and CI/CD pipelines.
• Good working knowledge of Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID.
• Experience building automated workflows using:
• Okta Workflows
• Power Automate
• Azure Logic Apps
• Or similar workflow automation platforms.
• Broad infrastructure knowledge with experience automating across cloud, server and platform environments.
