(Azure) Platform Engineer - build the cloud platform powering AI across the trading floor

You'll help build the cloud platform that powers AI across the trading floor of an established investment firm that's making a huge investment in AI across the business. This isn't about keeping the lights on. It's a greenfield engineering challenge where you'll help design the infrastructure that enables AI across the trading floor, working alongside the Front Office AI team and core Infrastructure engineers to build a secure, scalable platform capable of supporting enterprise AI workloads. You'll work with Azure, AKS, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps, Infrastructure as Code, networking, identity, automation, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Foundry and GPU-backed compute, solving the kind of platform challenges that sit behind AI at scale. The environment is predominantly Azure today, with a mix of Windows/on-prem, while AWS will play a future role as the platform evolves. You'll have the freedom to influence architecture, introduce best practices and help define how AI infrastructure is built across the organisation, rather than simply inheriting someone else's decisions. If you enjoy building platforms that other engineers rely on, automating everything you can, and working on technology that's genuinely shaping the future of a business, this is the kind of role that's hard to come by.
