Responsibilities
Be part of a hub that ensures ERM’s business continuity worldwide. · Collaborate with colleagues across geographies to support global operations. · Drive consistency, compliance, and efficiency in core functions. · Work with digital, automation, and AI-enabled tools to optimise how ERM operates. · Work in shifts where required, depending on the role.
As processes mature and automation increases, reliance on shifts will reduce.Design, build, and operate shared cloud infrastructure platforms that multiple product and application teams depend on.
This role focuses on delivering secure, stable, and scalable AWS and Azure environments , container platforms (including Kubernetes), networking foundations, and reusable platform components that accelerate delivery across ERM.
The engineer ensures cloud operational excellence through monitoring, optimisation, and implementation of consistent engineering patterns that support cost efficiency and reliability.
Responsibilities Cloud Infrastructure Engineering Design, build, and operate shared cloud infrastructure across AWS and Azure , including environments, VPCs/VNets, subnets, gateways, and networking services.
Implement scalable compute foundations (e.g., Kubernetes clusters, serverless functions, container runtimes) used by multiple teams.
Support provisioning and lifecycle management of cloud resources through infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Bicep, CloudFormation).
Container Platforms & Runtime Operations Deploy, configure, and maintain Kubernetes clusters (EKS, AKS) to support application workloads.
Ensure platform stability through health checks, diagnostics, patching, and high‑availability configurations.
Contribute to incident response, root cause analysis, and proactive reliability improvements.
Monitoring, Observability & Cost Efficiency Implement and manage monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions across cloud environments.
Track and optimise cloud consumption for cost efficiency using tagging, rightsizing, and automated remediation patterns.
Support operational visibility for application teams and ensure platform telemetry meets reliability needs.
Reusable Platform Patterns & Ways of Working Build standardised infrastructure modules, templates, and deployment patterns for consistent usage across pods/projects.
Contribute to engineering standards for cloud environments, network design, container best practices, and operational guardrails.
Support onboarding, documentation, and knowledge sharing for teams consuming cloud/platform services.
And Decision-Making Authority Influence architectural decisions for cloud environments, container platforms, and shared infrastructure patterns.
Recommend improvements to cloud security posture, cost efficiency, and operational reliability.
Shape reusable platform components, IaC modules, and standard delivery workflows adopted across engineering teams.
Provide expert input into multi-cloud operating models and environment strategy.
Requirements
