Job Description
Overview
You’re the kind of Platform Engineer who doesn’t just “run” Linux. You tune it. Break it. Fix it. Automate it. Improve it. You like AWS because it gives you options. You like hybrid because it forces you to think. And you’re comfortable when Linux, Windows, networking and security all collide in the same environment. You don’t want a narrow ticket queue. You want ownership.
I’m hiring a Senior Platform Engineer (Linux / AWS) into a Glasgow-based firm operating in global financial markets. The infrastructure here supports time-sensitive, high-impact activity. When something moves, it matters. When something breaks, it gets fixed properly. You’ll be someone who enjoys digging into:
- Linux and Windows in live production environments
- Virtualised infrastructure
- AWS within a hybrid estate
- Automation with tools like Ansible
- Enterprise networking and security
- Monitoring, resilience and recovery planning
