Responsible for deploying, operating, and maintaining Game Warden across EMEA cloud environments, building secure, repeatable platform patterns, and ensuring accreditation and regulatory requirements are met.

  • Implement the technical controls and documentation required for EAL, FedRAMP, GovRAMP, NATO, UK MOD, or equivalent customer accreditation regimes.
  • Translate engineering tooling requirements into platform specifications, ensuring CI/CD, containerization, and accreditation workflows meet time-sensitive delivery windows.
  • Work with platform and engineering leads to resolve conflicts between automation, hardening, and operational constraints.
  • Sequence platform rollouts and upgrades to minimize disruption to active development while maintaining compliance posture and system hardening.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on platform engineering, DevSecOps, cloud infrastructure, SRE, or systems engineering experience in production environments.
  • Deep fluency with AWS, Azure, GCP, or equivalent cloud platforms operating at scale.
  • Production-grade Kubernetes and container orchestration experience in live systems.
