The posting

We are looking for a Platform Engineer who thrives at the intersection of infrastructure and software engineering. You're someone who loves solving complex problems, writing clean code, and building scalable systems that make a real-world impact.

We’re looking for passionate technologists with a solid grounding in infrastructure and a strong bias toward software engineering best practices. If you’ve worked with containerisation (Kubernetes), cloud platforms (any flavour), and tools like Go, Ruby, Terraform, OpenTofu, Terragrunt or Pulumi, we want to hear from you.

This isn’t just about building new things. You’ll be enhancing and maturing one of the largest health data platforms in the world, driving improvements, fixing bugs, and supporting a system that truly matters. You’ll be hands-on with infrastructure-as-code, GitOps workflows, and engineering best practices like unit testing, code reviews, and design documentation.

These systems will include but not limited to the participant-facing websites, import and processing of high-volume health, NHS and genetic datasets to the de-identification/sharing of data into accredited Trusted Research Environments (TREs).

At Our Future Health, our mission is to transform the prevention, detection and treatment of conditions such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke. We’re looking for people to join us on our journey. If you’re looking for a new challenge where you can contribute to helping future generations live in good health for longer, then we’re keen to speak with you.

What you’ll be doing

  • Working across cross-functional teams launching new services and integrating complex systems with partners.
  • Working closely with product managers to shape solutions from idea to implementation.
  • Day to day support of feature development, tech debt removal, and platform improvements, all while supporting a culture of high standards through pairing, peer reviews, and coaching.
  • Contributing to architectural planning, retrospectives, and incident reviews, helping drive meaningful change. You’ll also take part in support rotations, including out-of-hours on-call, ensuring our systems stay reliable and responsive.
  • Being a part of wider engineering initiatives that shape how we work and grow as a community.

What you won’t be doing

  • Working in a siloed environment with no freedom to make decisions.
  • Working in a place where you can’t see the impact your expertise makes.

Requirements

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
