Senior Platform Engineer

We’re working with a well-established financial services organisation expanding its engineering presence in Ireland and looking to hire a Senior Platform Engineer for their growing Platform & Infrastructure team.

This is a platform engineering role focused on building and evolving the core services that support engineering teams. Rather than owning delivery pipelines, you’ll be responsible for the platform foundations they rely on — including Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, identity, networking, and governance.

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop a multi-tenant Kubernetes platform (AKS)
  • Build and maintain shared services within the internal developer platform
  • Define Terraform standards and reusable infrastructure patterns
  • Support cloud security, policy-as-code, and zero-trust initiatives
  • Mentor team members and contribute to technical direction
  • Participate in platform incident response and on-call support

Requirements

  • Strong public cloud experience (Azure preferred, AWS/GCP considered)
  • Proven experience managing Kubernetes platforms in production
  • Strong Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code expertise
  • Python experience for automation and tooling
  • Hands-on GitOps experience (ArgoCD or similar)
  • Strong cloud networking knowledge
  • Experience with policy tools such as Kyverno or OPA
  • Experience working within regulated environments

Desirable: CKA/CKS, cloud certifications, Vault, Cilium, financial services experience.

Salary: Up to €110,000 DOE
Location: Hybrid – primarily remote with occasional travel to Kerry
