## Job description

Senior Platform Engineer - London
We Are Skyral:

We believe every decision maker can be empowered by technology. Skyral combines AI, leading edge simulation technology and world class expertise to transform the decision making experience. Our products and services enable faster and more confident decisions in a complex, unforgiving world. We deploy practical, intuitive and efficient solutions to governments and enterprises, delivering outstanding outcomes at the speed of relevance.
What We Do

The Production Engineering team owns the foundation of Skyral’s Core platform, providing services and infrastructure to deploy our platform in any environment: whether on the public cloud or a highly secure air-gapped network. We provide a reliable base for other engineering teams to build customer solutions on top of.
Our team also owns the software delivery lifecycle at Skyral, reducing friction for other engineers by providing tooling, setting patterns and creating automations.
What You’ll Be Responsible For:
Owning complex platform initiatives end to end, from extending our Core platform to supporting customer solutions.
Settingcompany-wide technical direction, shaping our roadmap and building golden paths engineers enjoy following.
Mentoring engineers across the company, lifting the bar through review, pairing and sharing knowledge.
Improving our developer tooling and automation (reusable GitHub Actions, GitOps workflows, Terraform modules, Backstage and more) to make every engineer more productive.
Running and maintaining reusable components that package common open-source tools (e.g. Grafana, Istio, CloudNativePG) for teams to deploy in any environment.
Baking security into the platform through secure-by-default infrastructure, compliance audits and close work with our security engineer.
What We Are Looking For:
A strong software engineering foundation, with significant experience building tooling and services in Go or Python.
Deep expertise in infrastructure and tooling practices, including Infrastructure as Code (ideally Terraform), CI/CD (we use GitHub Actions) and GitOps (for example, ArgoCD).
Hands-on experience building scalable, reusable infrastructure on a major cloud platform (GCP or AWS). Experience deploying to on-prem environments is a bonus.
Proficiency with Kubernetes, from building and operating services to managing cloud-vendored clusters.
A production mindset, with experience improving reliability of production environments through observability, incident response and alerting.
Note: Please feel empowered to apply for this position, even if you think you may only align with some of the qualities listed above. Your unique skills and perspectives could be just what we’re looking for.
What We Can Offer You:

 🌴 Unlimited Paid Holiday - we value and support the need to maintain a strong work-life balance.

🏡 Hybrid Working - we understand that a one-size-fits all approach doesn’t suit everyone.

⏰ Flexible Working Hours - We’re not bound by the 9-to-5 model. Collaborate with your manager on determining a work schedule that suits you.

🍼 Enhanced Parental Leave - we’re proud to offer 26 weeks maternity leave and 4 weeks paternity leave at full pay.

🏥 Private Medical & Dental Insurance - offered through Bupa.

💲Honest about Compensation - We maintain a well defined salary range which a member of the Talent Team will discuss with you during the first call.

☕ Healthy Snacks & Drinks Provided - If you decide to come into the office, we have a range of snacks and drinks for you to enjoy.

At Skyral, we are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equality and inclusion. We also ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to reasonable adjustments. If you require such accommodations during the job application process we ask that you inform a member of our Talent Team.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.

**Live in Skyralio’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
