About the role and team:
A hands-on Senior engineer embedded in the client's platform team, responsible for the reliability, scalability, and evolution of their infrastructure on AWS. The right candidate is comfortable working autonomously in a mature, opinionated stack and can influence without authority across engineering teams. This role combines deep hands-on expertise with team leadership, stakeholder engagement, and delivery planning. The right candidate can operate credibly at an engineering level while also communicating clearly with business and technical stakeholders, translating platform priorities into a coherent roadmap and ensuring the team has the clarity and support needed to deliver effectively.
What you'll be doing:
- Design and build reliable AWS platform capabilities, including federated identity.
- Assess the current platform and help prioritise the work needed through year-end.
- Work with the solution architect and technical BAs to turn requirements into implementable, auditable work.
- Help establish a foundation that can support wider use of the platform in 2027.
What you bring:
- Strong hands-on AWS cloud engineering and platform design experience.
- Ability to work independently, navigate an unfamiliar estate and make sound technical judgments.
- Experience with federated identity and complex integrations.
- Familiarity with Amazon Bedrock and Bedrock AgentCore.
- Experience working within regulated environments, including risk, assurance and design controls.
- Strong operational mindset, with experience owning incident management, on-call frameworks, and post-incident review processes
- Proven experience leading a platform or infrastructure engineering team, including mentoring, performance support, and day-to-day team management
- Strong stakeholder management skills, able to engage confidently with technical and non-technical audiences, translate complexity into clear priorities, and manage competing demands
What we’ll offer you:
We trust people to do their best work. That means flexibility over rigid rules, impact over activity, and real investment in your growth both professionally and personally. You’ll be part of a supportive, and friendly culture, surrounded by smart, curious people who care deeply about what they do.
We offer flexible working, including hybrid and remote options. Our office hubs are located in Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, London and Bulgaria, with occasional travel to client sites or CreateFuture offices when needed.
We trust you to manage your time balancing collaboration with client time and focused work. What matters is the impact you have, not how busy you look.
Our hiring process
We try to keep our hiring process clear, fair and respectful of your time. We aim to get back to everyone who applies and we will be upfront about where you are in the process.
It usually looks like this:
- Call with our Talent Acquisition Team
- Role specific capability interview
Depending on the role, we might also ask you to do a short presentation, a practical or technical task or have a values focused conversation. We will explain what is involved before anything happens.
Inclusion at CreateFuture
We believe diverse teams build better workplaces and better products. We want CreateFuture to be a place where people feel able to be themselves and do their best work.
If you need any adjustments or support during the application process, just. We will do what we can to help.
We look forward to your application!
