However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments.

As a senior cloud infrastructure engineer on the UK team, your job is to make everyone around you faster. You will be embedded with the engineers you support, not sat in a separate platform silo, and you will feel the same pain they do - which is exactly why you will be the one to fix it. Some days you will be designing UK-hosted infrastructure from a blank page, choosing the tools and the patterns and getting it right from the get-go rather than inheriting somebody else's shortcuts. Other days you will be standing up a secure environment for a customer, debugging a deployment that only misbehaves inside their network, or getting UK-approved AI models serving inside a secure programme. You will also work closely with the infrastructure teams across the rest of Applied Intuition, taking their best ideas, sending yours back, and making sure the UK team is never the one waiting. Our customers are defence primes and national security organisations, and the systems you build are the ones they actually use. At Applied Intuition, you will: Lead the design, development and architecture of the UK-hosted infrastructure used across our internal development teams Build and deploy our products into cloud, on-premise and air-gapped environments using infrastructure as code, and support them through their whole operational life Host UK securely approved AI models for use in secure programmes Improve developer effectiveness by spotting the friction nobody else has bothered to fix and building the tooling that removes it Take ownership of our CI/CD systems and deployment strategies, and help wire up Hardware in the Loop (HiL) integration Debug and profile the awkward edge cases in distributed systems, and lead the response when something breaks Work closely with product managers and customers to understand requirements and translate them into technical solutions Contribute your solutions back to the wider organisation and make
