Overview
IVC Evidensia is undergoing a major digital transformation. From modernising legacy systems to building cloud-native platforms, we’re laying the technical foundations to support over 2,500 veterinary practices in 20 countries. We’re hiring a Platform Engineering Manager to lead and grow our platform engineering team, helping unify our infrastructure practices across Europe and empower teams to deliver quality software at speed.
The Role
As Platform Engineering Manager, you’ll lead a team of engineers responsible for building and evolving our serverless, AWS-first infrastructure. You’ll balance hands-on technical leadership with people management — shaping the platform vision, enabling delivery, and supporting engineers’ growth.
You will:
* Lead, mentor, and grow a team of platform engineers
* Define and drive the strategy for a scalable, serverless AWS infrastructure (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, etc.)
* Oversee the design and management of AWS cloud infrastructure using CDK
* Guide the development and maintenance of CI/CD pipelines using AWS-native tools
* Foster best practices in automation, observability, and platform-as-a-product thinking
* Collaborate closely with engineering, security, and product leaders to align platform capabilities with business needs
* Champion operational excellence using Datadog and AWS monitoring/logging tools
What You’ll Bring
We’re looking for a leader who combines strong technical knowledge with a people-first mindset.
* Proven experience leading or managing engineering teams
* Strong hands-on experience with AWS in production environments
* Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (AWS CDK preferred)
* Solid background with CI/CD practices and tooling (ideally AWS-native)
* Experience with Datadog and AWS CloudWatch/native monitoring tools
* Excellent communication and collaboration skills, able to influence at both technical and business levels
* A coaching mindset, with a passion for developing people and teams
Benefits
* Remote-first working, with flexibility to suit your lifestyle
* The opportunity to shape technology strategy in a rapidly growing organisation
* Ongoing leadership and career development support
* Competitive salary and benefits package
