Welcome to Moneycorp. We’re delighted you’re interested in being a part of Moneycorp. This role involves ownership of day-to-day operations and delivering projects across Azure and IaaS (Windows and Linux). You’ll enhance landing zones, build reusable modules, and drive automation to strengthen the cloud platform. You’ll work with DevOps and SRE teams to implement secure, reliable, and cost-efficient patterns, mentor engineers, and promote best practices. The focus is on high-quality execution, stability, performance, and compliance, contributing to continuous improvement and a scalable, resilient platform that powers business growth and innovation.
Key Responsibilities
* Operational Ownership (BAU): Operate and improve Azure platform services and IaaS workloads across Windows and Linux for stability, performance, and compliance
* Implement hardening baselines and patch orchestration; maintain desired state with DSC or Ansible
* Enforce secure RBAC, Azure Policy, and identity patterns with AAD and PIM across subscriptions and management groups
* Own observability runbooks and baselines, including alerting, metrics, logs, dashboards, backups, and DR drills to reduce MTTR
* Administer Windows Server (AD, GPO, IIS) and provide Linux support including systemd, patching, and log management
* Project Delivery and Engineering: Contribute to landing zones and reusable platform modules using Bicep and Terraform
* Implement secure connectivity per platform blueprint: hub-and-spoke or vWAN, Private Endpoints, DNS, and hybrid links via ExpressRoute or VPN
* Support VMware-to-Azure migrations from readiness through cutover, rollback, and DR patterns
* Deliver CI/CD pipeline templates in Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions with policy gates, secrets scanning, and SBOM generation
* Enable the Internal Developer Platform to support IaC/CaC-based self-service environment provisioning
* Security, Reliability & Cost Controls: Embed secure-by-default patterns, integrate Defender and Conditional Access, and shift-left security for images and IaC in pipelines
* Apply SRE practices such as SLOs and error budgets, and codify operability standards for new capabilities
* Support FinOps guardrails with tagging, budgets, and alerts; analyse usage and implement cost optimisations without impacting SLAs
* Collaboration, Mentoring and Governance: Mentor platform engineers, standardize container and registry patterns for AKS/ARO, document decisions and reusable patterns, and participate in architectural governance
Skills, Qualifications and Experience Required
* Azure platform operations across enterprise IaaS and PaaS, including landing zones, subscriptions, RBAC, policy, and governance
* Strong Windows Server administration (AD, GPO, IIS) with practical Linux experience (RHEL/Ubuntu)
* Infrastructure-as-Code with Terraform and/or Bicep; Git-based workflows
* Configuration-as-Code with Ansible and/or DSC
* Automation and scripting with PowerShell and Bash; Python desirable
* CI/CD using Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions, with quality gates, secrets scanning, SBOM generation
* Azure networking fundamentals: VNets, vWAN, ExpressRoute, VPN, Private Endpoints, DNS; hybrid connectivity
* Containers and Kubernetes exposure (AKS/ARO), image registry practices, and environment provisioning
* Observability and reliability: monitoring, logging, alerting; SRE concepts (SLOs, error budgets); backup/DR
* Security and compliance: Zero Trust, IAM (AAD, PIM); Defender integration and vulnerability scanning
* Cost optimisation using FinOps practices, tagging, budgeting, and guardrails
Desirable (not essential)
* Experience supporting VMware-to-Azure migrations
* Experience with Temenos or similar core banking platforms is advantageous
Education
* Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
