What you need

  • Strong experience in infrastructure engineering, platform engineering, DevOps, SRE, or production systems engineering.
  • Deep hands-on experience operating Kubernetes in production.
  • Strong understanding of Linux systems, containers, networking, storage, and distributed infrastructure.
  • Strong networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, DNS, TLS, routing, load balancing, ingress, egress, network policy, and service discovery.
  • Experience debugging difficult infrastructure issues across clusters, nodes, pods, networks, storage, and workloads.
  • Experience with Kubernetes networking, CNI, service mesh, network policy, or secure service-to-service communication.

Nice to have

  • Experience with distributed storage systems, especially Rook Ceph or Ceph.
  • Experience with Cilium, eBPF, cluster mesh, Istio, Envoy, or similar networking and service mesh technologies.
  • Experience with multi-cluster Kubernetes environments.
  • Experience operating Kubernetes or OpenShift outside simple managed-cloud environments, including bare-metal, VMware, sovereign, air-gapped, regulated, or customer-managed deployments.
  • Experience operating infrastructure in secure, regulated, sovereign, air-gapped, defence, government, fintech, healthcare, critical infrastructure, or customer-managed environments.

What you get

  • Equity – because you have the right to own what you're building
  • A competitive salary – because we value your unique skills
  • Employer pension contributions – because you deserve a secure future
  • Private health insurance - because your health is important to us
  • Hybrid work setup – because everyone has different needs
  • Gym memberships - because staying active fuels productivity

Worth weighing

  • No salary listed
  • The role emphasizes a deep infrastructure focus, which may not appeal to those seeking a broader DevOps or cloud administration role.
  • The company operates on a hybrid model, requiring presence in the London office three days a week, which may not suit all candidates.
