I am working with a prominent organisation seeking a talented Lead Infrastructure Engineer to strengthen their IT department. You will be essential in maintaining and enhancing their important infrastructure.
As a Lead Infrastructure Engineer, you will lead AWS projects, drive automation initiatives, and oversee deployments to ensure a resilient and scalable production environment that supports continuous growth. A key aspect of this role will involve providing training and mentorship to junior team members, fostering their technical development and contributing to the overall growth of the team.
• Predominantly Windows-based EC2 instances on AWS.
• MariaDB (main relational DB) and DynamoDB (NoSQL).
• Linux appliances are used in small but important parts of the estate.
• Use of a custom-built deployment tool (not standard Terraform or Ansible).
• Deployment automation exists but needs improvement and modernization.
• AWS services: Various (not all specified, but significant AWS integration).
Role Requirements:
* Cloud: Strong AWS experience required. (Azure-only experience is not sufficient.)
* Must be highly capable in Windows server environments.
* Needs some Linux exposure; not an expert, but comfortable with Linux servers.
* Help separate production, staging, dev, and test environments into separate AWS accounts.
* Move towards Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
Soft Skills:
* Problem-solving, analytical, and critical thinking abilities.
* Ability to work independently and troubleshoot issues with limited guidance.
* Experience supporting business-critical services with high availability requirements.
* Proactive attitude, collaborative spirit, non-corporate, non-political mindset.
* Some mentorship/leadership responsibilities (over junior infrastructure engineer).
This is an urgent role. If you match the skill set, please email your CV to [emailprotected] or call 0161 840 1025.
