We're looking for a Platform Engineer to join our Application Platform team. You'll help build and operate the deployment platform, tooling, and developer experience that every engineering team at dunnhumby relies on to ship software to production.

This role can be based from either our London or Manchester office.

You'll join at a moment when we're moving our retail analytics platform from monthly bundled releases to continuous per-service deployment on Kubernetes. You'll be hands-on with that migration in your first few months and then stay on long-term as a core member of the team that owns and evolves the platform. It's a clear path into senior platform engineering for someone who has shipped production Kubernetes work and wants to grow their craft on a platform used by hundreds of engineers.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain the platform primitives that enable service teams to deploy independently, including ArgoCD application manifests, GitOps repository lifecycles, reusable Helm chart templates, and External Secrets Operator configuration.
• Pair with engineers across product and data teams as they onboard onto the new platform, addressing repeated questions at the template layer to prevent recurring issues.
• Contribute to platform design discussions and help shape the paved road that engineers across dunnhumby build on.
• Author and maintain reusable GitLab CI pipeline templates covering build, test, publish, deploy, and post‑deploy stages.
• Work with service teams to migrate pipelines onto the platform standard and retire bespoke per‑service deployment scripts.
• Continuously improve build times, pipeline reliability, and developer feedback loops.
• Respond to platform alerts during working hours, triaging ArgoCD sync failures, secret synchronisation errors, and flaky pipelines.
• Join the Application Platform on‑call rotation once ramped up (typically after the first few months).
• Instrument platform tooling with structured logging and dashboards to improve visibility without manual investigation.
• Write unit and integration tests to meet SonarQube coverage requirements and create smoke tests for deployment workflows — no green CI, no merge.
• Keep migration playbooks, ArgoCD setup guides, and per‑service pipeline documentation accurate and up to date.
• Share learnings with the squad through regular knowledge‑sharing sessions.

What we expect from you:

• Strong professional software or platform engineering experience, shipping code or infrastructure to production within a team environment
• Hands‑on Kubernetes experience on GKE, AKS, or EKS, with confidence using Deployments, Services, Ingress, ConfigMaps, Secrets, and RBAC
• Helm experience, including writing or substantially modifying charts, with a solid understanding of values files, templates, hooks, and chart dependencies
• Experience with GitLab CI or a comparable CI tool (e.g. GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, CircleCI), having built or meaningfully modified pipelines rather than just used them
• Production experience with Python or Go, with the ability to discuss real code from professional work
• Confidence working with Linux, Bash, Docker, and standard Unix tooling
• Strong Git practices within a team environment, including branching strategies, PR/MR workflows, review feedback, and merge conflict resolution
• A proven track record of shipping to production in a professional team setting (not solely prototype or personal projects)
• Exposure to ArgoCD, Flux, or another GitOps tool is a strong plus
• Experience with External Secrets Operator, Vault, or similar secret‑sync patterns is beneficial
• Familiarity with Terraform, multi‑cloud environments (GCP and Azure), observability tooling (e.g. New Relic, Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana), or contract testing with Pact would be valuable

Job Summary

We turn large-scale system measurements into decisions. Our team runs workloads across clusters of machines and collects detailed performance data. The challenge isn’t running the measurements—it’s deciding what they mean, and whether a system is good enough to enter production.

You will work with results from real systems and help answer questions like:

• Is this system behaving as expected?
• Is performance stable enough to trust?
• Does this meet the criteria to enter production?
  
  

This work includes systems engineering and analysis. It involves understanding variability, repeatability, and the differences between signal and noise.

You won’t be confined to a single role. You may shape measurements, influence how they are run, or improve how results are interpreted. You are free to specialise, but the team is responsible for leaving no gaps.

This is not a dashboarding or reporting role in the traditional sense. The goal is to produce outputs that support real engineering decisions.

We’re looking for engineers who:

• Think carefully about uncertainty and evidence
• Prefer clarity over presentation
• Are comfortable challenging conclusions when data is weak

Selection criteria:

Our engineers typically bring significant practical experience and sound engineering judgement.

Depth in one area is valued, but the ability to work across boundaries is equally important.

Essential

• Strong software engineering experience, typically gained across multiple projects or systems over several years
• Experience working in Linux-based environments, ideally with distributed or high-performance systems
• Proficiency in Python
• Experience with automation and CI/CD systems (e.g. GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
• Ability to design, implement, and run experiments or tests that produce meaningful results
• Ability to interpret results and communicate findings clearly, with an emphasis on accuracy and usefulness to decision-making
• Comfortable working in areas where requirements are not fully defined and judgement is required

Desirable

• Experience working with large-scale or distributed systems (e.g. clusters, cloud platforms, HPC environments)
• Experience with performance, reliability, or systems-level testing/measurement
• Familiarity with pytest or similar frameworks for structured test/measurement execution
• Experience analysing system behaviour under load (compute, network, or ML workloads)
• Experience working with containerisation, orchestration, or provisioning systems (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes, OpenStack)
• Proficiency in other applications programming languages (e.g. C++)7. Exposure to data analysis, statistics, or interpreting variability in results

Benefits

In addition to a competitive salary, Graphcore offers flexible working, a generous annual leave policy, private medical insurance and health cash plan, a dental plan, pension (matched up to 5%), life assurance and income protection. We have a generous parental leave policy and an employee assistance programme (which includes health, mental wellbeing, and bereavement support). We offer a range of healthy food and snacks at our central Bristol office and have our own barista bar! We welcome people of different backgrounds and experiences; we’re committed to building an inclusive work environment that makes Graphcore a great home for everyone. We offer an equal opportunity process and understand that there are visible and invisible differences in all of us. We can provide a flexible approach to interview and encourage you to chat to us if you require any reasonable adjustments.

Sponsorship

Applicants for this position must hold the right to work in the UK. Unfortunately at this time, we are unable to provide visa sponsorship or support for visa applications.

Job Summary

We decide whether entire racks of machines are good enough to enter production. Our team measures and evaluates large-scale Linux systems—from a single rack to data-centre scale. We don’t just run benchmarks; we determine whether a system behaves correctly, and whether it is reliable enough to be trusted.

The work spans designing workloads, building execution systems, and interpreting results. A measurement is only useful if it leads to a decision.

You won’t be confined to a narrow role. Some engineers here focus on infrastructure, others on workloads or analysis—but everyone contributes to understanding system behaviour at scale. You are free to specialise, but as a team we are responsible for leaving no gaps.

You might find yourself:

• Expanding measurement coverage from small clusters to full racks
• Designing workloads that expose system behaviour
• Building systems to run experiments across large clusters
• Interpreting results and defining what “good enough” looks like

This is not a pure infrastructure or data role. The work combines systems engineering, measurement, and judgement.

We’re looking for engineers who are comfortable working where the right answer isn’t obvious, and where careful measurement matters more than output volume.

Selection criteria:

Our engineers typically bring significant practical experience and sound engineering judgement. Depth in one area is valued, but the ability to work across boundaries is equally important.

Essential

• Strong software engineering experience, typically gained across multiple projects or systems over several years
• Experience working in Linux-based environments, ideally with distributed or high-performance systems

Join Proton and build a better internet where privacy is the default

At Proton, we believe that privacy is a fundamental human right and the cornerstone of democracy. Since our inception in 2014, founded by a team of scientists from CERN, we have dedicated ourselves to providing free and open-source technology to millions worldwide, ensuring access to privacy, security, and freedom online.

Our journey began with Proton Mail, the largest secure email service globally, and has since expanded to include Proton VPN, Proton Calendar, Proton Drive, and Proton Pass. These tools empower individuals and organizations to take control of their personal data, break away from Big Tech’s invasive practices, and defeat censorship. Our work impacts hundreds of millions of lives, from activists on the front lines defending freedom to leaders in governments protecting sensitive information. In some cases, Proton’s services have even been instrumental in saving lives by enabling secure and private communications in high-risk situations.

Proton is a profitable company that does not rely upon VC funding, supporting over 100 million user accounts with a growing team of over 500 people from over 50 different countries, from the world's top companies and universities. We value intelligence, learning potential, and ambition in our hiring process. Adaptability is key as we navigate uncharted territories and redefine how business is conducted online.

We have a global mindset and big ambitions but remain a start-up at heart. We value empowerment and flexibility and keep our structure flat to keep moving fast and avoid unnecessary politics.
