Key Responsibilities

•Build and own the reliability and scalability of production systems, cloud infrastructure, and codebase, ensuring the platform securely manages sensitive financial and personal data.
•Lead backup and disaster recovery across the platform: define clear recovery targets, rehearse and validate restores, and provide evidence of resilience.
•Be the first responder when platform incidents arise—whether they’re infrastructure issues, pipeline failures, or security events—and lead the follow-up to prevent recurrence.
•Share responsibility for Infrastructure as Code: review and author changes, and keep infrastructure safe to evolve.
•Maintain and enhance deployment tooling (TypeScript, with tests) for continuous, safe releases to production.
•Consistently strengthen the platform security baseline with ongoing improvements such as edge protection, audit logging, pipeline scanning, and secret rotation.
•Own and develop the authorisation model, ensuring every operation passes robust, externalised permission checks for both people and AI agents.
•Use AI-driven development as standard: direct coding agents, specify and test requirements, and rigorously review results.
•Influence the technical roadmap, participate in design reviews, and set a high standard for engineering quality across the team.
