Platform Engineering Lead / Azure / DevOps / Cloud / Terraform / Permanent / Cardiff / Hybrid

Vivo Talent are looking for a forward‑thinking Platform Engineering Lead to take ownership of two critical platform teams – one supporting the on‑premise estate and the other driving their evolution to a cloud‑native Azure environment.

This is a high‑impact role where you’ll define technical direction, elevate engineering standards and lead the transformation of their core platform into a modern, scalable and resilient ecosystem.


What you’ll be doing

* Lead the strategy and architecture across on‑prem and Azure platforms
* Drive adoption of cloud‑native design, IaC, automation and DevOps best practices
* Oversee the migration from legacy systems to Azure, balancing risk and delivery
* Guide teams through complex technical challenges across infrastructure, networking and operations
* Champion reliability, scalability and performance across the platform
* Partner with product, security and engineering leaders to align on strategy and priorities


What we’re looking for

* Strong background in platform engineering across on‑prem and cloud environments
* Deep expertise in Azure, cloud architecture, networking and security
* Hands‑on experience with Terraform/Bicep, CI/CD and automation
* Solid understanding of containers, orchestration and modern deployment patterns
* Proven ability to solve complex platform challenges and influence technical decisions
* Experience leading and developing engineering teams


Nice to have

* Experience leading cloud migrations or platform transformations
* Knowledge of observability tools (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana, App Insights)
* Exposure to security, compliance and hybrid networking
* Passion for developer experience and internal platform tooling
* Interest in AI‑driven automation within engineering


Why this role?

You’ll play a key role in a major cloud transformation, shaping the platform that underpins critical business systems while building a culture of engineering excellence, ownership and innovation.
