I'm recruiting for a Lead Platform Architect to take ownership of the architecture and evolution of large-scale Red Hat OpenShift platforms supporting business-critical services within complex enterprise environments.

- Commercial OpenShift platform architecture (essential)
- Enterprise Kubernetes platform architecture and platform lifecycle management
- Designing, evolving and governing production container platforms
- Platform engineering, microservices and cloud- technologies
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), CI/CD and automation
- Hybrid cloud and/or on-premise platform environments
- High availability, resilience, disaster recovery and platform security
- Working within large enterprise, managed services or regulated environments
This role would suit someone who has moved beyond implementation and enjoys solving platform-wide challenges, setting architectural standards, shaping long-term platform strategy and working closely with engineering teams to evolve enterprise platforms.
