The Platform Engineering team is at the core of Zopa and has been created to improve the way we deliver our infrastructure and evolve the reliability engineering culture.
This role will sit in our Zopa Reliability Engineering team and work across various projects in our new point of sale finance business DivideBuy.
We are looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to lead on the evolution of DivideBuy’s reliability engineering culture and infrastructure platforms; leading the transition to IaaC environment, finding opportunity to replace BAU tickets with automation and APIs and designing reliable, scalable and secure services.

- Working closely with other platform engineers to gain alignment and espouse a culture of automation for the new stack

- Participate in an on-call team rota
The ideal candidate:
- You have at least 6+ years experience as a Platform Engineer or similar position

- You have strong Linux administration knowledge (FlatcarOS, Amazon Linux 2 or any Linux in general)
- Experience and interest with at least one programming language and the willingness to dabble in others (Bash, Python, Go)
- You have experience with Linux containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
