They are looking for a Platform Network Engineer with strong cloud networking expertise across Azure (essential) and GCP (desirable), capable of designing and building secure, scalable multi-region environments.

This is not a pure DevOps role; strong, hands-on networking depth is essential.

• Implement and manage cloud firewalls, load balancers, CDN/edge services, and traffic management
• Design multi-region high-availability and disaster recovery networking solutions
• Embed network security controls aligned to regulated industry standards
• Automate infrastructure using Terraform and CI/CD pipelines
• Partner with Security and Engineering teams to improve network reliability and resilience

Required Experience

• Strong Azure cloud networking experience (essential)
• Experience with GCP networking (desirable)
• Deep understanding of routing, firewalls, DNS, load balancing, and traffic management
• Experience with next-generation firewalls and centralised policy management
• Hands-on experience building (not just maintaining) cloud network infrastructure
• Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform preferred)
• Experience operating in regulated or security-focused environments
