We are delivering a strategic automation and operational resilience programme, scaling an internally built AWS‑based automation platform designed to remove manual controls, Excel‑based EUDAs, and operational risk at scale.
This is a senior, hands‑on technical leadership role where you’ll shape the architecture of high‑impact automation solutions, mentor engineers, and partner closely with Operations and senior stakeholders to materially reduce operational risk.
What You’ll Do
- Own and shape the technical architecture for automation solutions on AWS, using serverless and event‑driven patterns
- Provide technical leadership and hands‑on guidance to mid‑level automation engineers
- Balance architectural decisions with business outcomes, focusing on resilience, scalability, and speed‑to‑value
- Review designs and code to ensure quality, security, and maintainability
- Act as a senior technical point of contact for delivery leadership and stakeholders
- Partner with Operations, Technology, and Business teams to understand processes, risks, and control requirements
- Build and maintain an inventory of manual processes, EUDAs, and operational checks, aligned to key controls
- Design, develop, test, and deploy automated operational checks and processes
- Increase automation coverage across manual processes, checklists, and EUDAs
- Integrate monitoring, alerting, and scheduling tools (e.g. Control‑M, Geneos, Datadog)
- Deliver Health Dashboards providing real‑time operational resilience insights for senior stakeholders
- Work in an agile delivery model, contributing to sprints, planning, demos, and continuous improvement
- Ensure solutions meet security, resilience, and SDLC standards with strong documentation and version control
- Strong experience in cloud architecture (AWS preferred)
- Deep understanding of serverless architectures (Lambda, event‑driven design)
- Experience with container platforms (Kubernetes / EKS)
- Strong CI/CD and secure software delivery experience
- Proven system integration capability (APIs, data pipelines, scheduling tools)
- Ability to align technical design with business outcomes
- Experience leading or mentoring engineering teams
- Strong Java development experience for automation
Nice to Have
- Background in financial services or regulated environments
- Exposure to operational risk, controls, audits, and evidence automation
- Experience delivering service or business health dashboards for senior leadership
- Knowledge of observability, monitoring, and alerting best practices (SRE / production operations)
- Experience modernising manual or Excel‑based (EUDA) processes
- Strong stakeholder management across Operations, Technology, and Controls
