We are recruiting founding Platform Engineers on behalf of a fast-growing enterprise level (global, 500+ staff) software business with a strong engineering culture and a genuine commitment to doing things the right way. They have recently formed a dedicated Platform Engineering Group - and this is your opportunity to join it at the ground floor, helping to define the patterns, pipelines, and tooling that will shape how their engineering teams build and ship software for years to come. Location: Remote (UK-based), with occasional visits to a Central London HQ for team days. Salary: £80,000 to £85,000 per annum, plus 10% annual bonus and an extensive benefits package. Working arrangement: fully remote. Contract type: permanent. What you'll be doing Designing and building internal tooling, templates, and scaffolding that make the right way the easy way for engineering teams across the business. Building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines that are robust, fast, and production-ready - reducing friction for every team that depends on them. Treating developer experience as a product - gathering feedback from engineers, identifying pain points, and iterating toward solutions that deliver measurable value. Owning test architecture as a deliberate design problem - defining and embedding standards for unit, integration, and contract testing across the platform. Collaborating closely with engineers, architects, and stakeholders to surface ideas, take on feedback, and shape the direction of the platform engineering function. What you need to bring Strong software engineering skills with real depth in at least one language, and a clear point of view on stacks, tooling, and trade-offs. Java, C#, Python, Typescript, Go - all valid! Solid hands-on experience designing and building CI/CD pipelines, and running containerised workloads in production. Experience with Infrastructure as Code - CloudFormation/CDK, Terraform, or Pulumi (Any of / all of!) - and the confidence to build pipelines that hold up under real production load. A track record of building tooling or automation that other engineers rely on day-to-day, and strong communication skills to match. Desirable: AWS experience , GitHub Actions, hands-on continuous release, progressive delivery, or production observability. Why you'll love this job This is a pattern-setting role in a newly formed group - you'll have genuine influence over how the platform is built, not just be handed a backlog to work through. The business takes learning seriously - dedicated personal development time each week, access to an online training platform, annual conference attendance, and regular Innovation Time to explore your own ideas. An excellent benefits package that includes health insurance, income protection, life assurance, pension contribution, subsidised gym membership, and more. If you're an engineer who cares deeply about how software gets built - not just that it gets built - we'd love to hear from you. Apply now with your CV!
