Title: Lead Cloud Engineer Location: Any UK Office Hub (Bristol / London / Manchester / Swansea) / hybrid
About Made Tech Our aim at Made Tech is to use human-centred technology to improve our society. We believe putting people at the heart of designing, building and delivering public services leads to better outcomes for everyone. Based within the Cloud & Engineering Practice, our Cloud Engineers help public sector organisations to deliver digital services that are highly available, reliable, resilient and secure. They are software engineers who tend to focus more on the successful deployment and operations of services than on functional development. They are adaptable and comfortable covering a range of disciplines such as DevOps, SRE and infrastructure architecture.
About the role You will play a critical role in designing, implementing, and maintaining our clients’ cloud infrastructure, ensuring it is secure, scalable, and highly available. You will provide dedicated cloud and infrastructure expertise within your team and advise on best practice. We expect our cloud engineers to have a background in and thorough understanding of software engineering. You will keep abreast of emerging technologies and be able to work collaboratively in a multi-disciplinary software delivery environment. You will be expected to maintain a broad technical knowledge across all major cloud platforms and build credibility by pursuing relevant certifications.

An increasing number of our customers are specifying a minimum of SC (security check) clearance in order to work on their projects. As a result, we're looking for all successful candidates for this role to have eligibility. Eligibility for SC requires 5 years' continuous UK residency and 5 year' employment history (or back to full-time education). Please note that if at any point during the interview process it is apparent that you may not be eligible for SC, we won't be able to progress your application and we will contact you to let you know why.
Support in applying If you need this job description in another format, or other support in applying, please email recruiter contact. We believe we can use tech to make public services better. We also believe this can happen best when our own team represents the society that actually uses the services we work on. We’re collectively continuing to grow a culture that is happy, healthy, safe and inspiring for people of all backgrounds and experiences, so we encourage people from underrepresented groups to apply for roles with us. When you apply, we’ll put you in touch with a member of our talent team who can help with any needs or adjustments we may need to make to help with your application. We’ve put together this blog as a resource to share more about reasonable adjustments and some examples of what this could include. We also welcome any feedback on how we can improve the experience for future candidates.
Life at Made Tech We’re committed to building a happy, inclusive and diverse workforce. You can get a sense of what it’s like working here from our blog, where we talk about mental health, communities of practice and neurodiversity (as well as our client work and best practice). Like many organisations, we use Slack to foster a sense of community and connection. As well as special interest groups such as music, food and pets, we also have 10+ Slack channels dedicated to specific communities, allies, and identities as well as dedicated learning spaces called communities of practice (COPs). If you’d like to speak to someone from one of these groups about their experience as an employee, please do let a member of the Made Tech talent team know.
Benefits We are always listening to our growing teams and evolving the benefits available to our people. As we scale, as do our benefits and we are scaling quickly. We've recently introduced a flexible benefit platform which includes a Smart Tech scheme, Cycle to work scheme, and an individual benefits allowance which you can invest in a Health care cash plan or Pension plan. We’re also big on connection and have an optional social and wellbeing calendar of events for all employees to join should they choose to. Here are some of our most popular benefits listed below:
