NOC Engineer + AWS | Kubernetes

Fully Remote (UK)

24/7 Shift Pattern (28-day rota including days & nights)

£ Competitive + Bonus + Excellent Benefits

Build resilient cloud platforms that support critical national services.

This is far more than a traditional NOC role.

You'll be joining an engineering-led organisation where reliability, automation and continuous improvement sit at the heart of the platform. Rather than simply responding to incidents, you'll work to prevent them by improving systems, automating operational processes and helping shape the future of highly resilient cloud services.

If you're passionate about building reliable cloud platforms and enjoy solving complex technical problems in large-scale production environments, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

Monitoring and maintaining highly available production platforms running in AWS

Responding to and managing production incidents across a 24/7 service

Investigating complex technical issues and restoring services quickly and effectively

Developing automation to reduce manual operational tasks and improve platform resilience

Building and improving monitoring, alerting and observability across cloud environments

Working alongside Software, Platform, Cloud and Security Engineers to improve reliability and operational excellence

Contributing to post-incident reviews and driving continuous service improvements

Supporting containerised workloads using Kubernetes and Docker

What we're looking for

You'll ideally have experience in a Production Engineering, Cloud Operations or NOC environment with exposure to:

Linux systems administration

AWS cloud infrastructure

Kubernetes and Docker

Production support and incident management

Python, Bash or Go scripting

Monitoring and observability platforms such as Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, Splunk or CloudWatch

Networking fundamentals including DNS, TCP/IP and load balancing

A passion for automation, continuous improvement and operational excellenceExperience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), SRE principles (SLIs, SLOs), or regulated environments would be beneficial but isn't essential.
