About the role

You will plan infrastructure changes around service dependencies, access and recovery. The senior role includes choosing an operational approach, coordinating difficult incidents and checking that a recovery plan works beyond its written description.

What you will do

  • Plan infrastructure and migrations around the workload, dependencies, and effect of an interruption.
  • Review security and recovery decisions, coordinate complex incidents, and make operational tradeoffs clear.
  • Assess migration and deployment risks, including data consistency, service dependencies and rollback conditions.
  • Review access boundaries, monitoring coverage and restoration evidence with the people responsible for the application.

What you should bring

  • Strong Linux, networking, deployment and recovery judgement, with the ability to trace failures across infrastructure and application boundaries.

Examples of work in this role

  • An infrastructure or migration plan with explicit failure conditions and recovery steps.
  • A reviewed incident or recovery record explaining the evidence and corrective actions.

Working arrangements

  • Keep progress, questions, and blockers visible through the agreed communication channels.
  • Availability, working hours, equipment needs, and any location eligibility requirements will be discussed during recruitment.
  • Employment terms, compensation, and any benefits will be discussed during recruitment.

What to include in your application

  • Use the application form and include your CV, availability, and a short explanation of why this work interests you.
  • Describe a migration, incident or restore exercise you led. Explain the decisions you owned, the checks performed and what remained at risk.
  • Share only work you have permission to disclose. A redacted sample or a clear explanation is fine when client work is confidential.
