IT Software Engineer, Infrastructure

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

As an IT Software Engineer (Infrastructure) , you will be a core technical contributor on the IT CorpEng Infrastructure team, owning and driving the evolution of our core infrastructure and observability platforms. This role requires a strong software engineering mindset, deep technical breadth across SRE and infrastructure worlds, and the ability to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions for currently "immature" system problems. You will be responsible for building resilient, scalable, and automated infrastructure that empowers our development teams. As a member of the team, you will bridge the gap between software engineering and systems architecture, ensuring our AWS environment is cost-optimised, secure, and highly available.

What it asks for · 6

• Software Engineering Expertise: 3–5 years of hands-on software engineering experience, with strong proficiency in Python for scripting, automation, and tooling (required).
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Solid working knowledge of Terraform (modules, state management) or Pulumi (preferred).
• Cloud & Containerization: Hands-on experience building and supporting production workloads in AWS (or Azure/GCP), along with Kubernetes and Docker fundamentals.
• CI/CD & Automation: Practical experience designing, maintaining, and troubleshooting pipelines using GitHub Actions or similar modern CI/CD tools.
• Observability Foundations: Practical understanding of observability pillars (logging, metrics, tracing) and hands-on experience integrating tools such as Datadog, Prometheus, or Grafana.
• Independent Execution: Proven ability to own end-to-end tasks with guidance from Tech Leads, breaking down broader technical goals into actionable technical solutions.

What the job covers

• Automate: Develop and deploy production-grade infrastructure on cloud platforms (AWS preferred) using Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform or Pulumi.
• Orchestration: Deploy, manage, and scale containerised workloads using Kubernetes (EKS/AKS), focusing on security, reliability, and resource efficiency.
• CI/CD Excellence: Build and maintain robust deployment pipelines using GitHub Actions, including both cloud-hosted and self-hosted runners for specialised build requirements.
• Drive "Observable by Default" Frameworks: Implement infrastructure standards to ensure new internal applications are secure, with logging, metrics, and tracing configured out of the box.
• Tooling, Scripting & AI: Build internal CLI tools, AI-assisted workflows, and automation scripts to streamline developer workflows and reduce manual toil.
• Partner Cross-Functionally: Collaborate with Security, Engineering, Infrastructure, and Support teams to execute technical projects aligned with business outcomes.
• Document & Knowledge Share: Participate in peer code reviews, maintain operational playbooks/failure triage guides, and help onboard team members onto platforms you maintain.
