We're free thinkers. We're innovators. We're #ConsultantsWhoCode.

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Platform Engineer (Azure) who has a passion for platform engineering, to join our engineering team here at EDF.

We are seeking someone with passion, skills and experience to help our Azure Platform team evolve to the next level and to truly unlock our application engineering teams.

The Opportunity

As a Platform Engineer (Azure), you will play a key role within the Azure Platform team, in designing, building, and operating the Azure Landing Zone, which provides the secure, compliant, and automated foundation for cloud workloads at EDF.

Our Engineering practise is a collective of multi-disciplined engineers comprising of generalists and specialists; be it front-end, back-end, full stack developer or DevOps and Platform Engineering. We offer opportunities for engineers who want to help shape, develop and grow our engineering practice, whilst developing their own skills, knowledge and career.

We're evolving our IT landscape from traditional on-premise monoliths, to a collection of scalable, independent micro services, which enable us to react to the fast paced nature of the energy industry and uncertainty.

Pay, benefits and culture

Alongside a starting salary of £63,000 DOE, potential to earn 5% bonus, 28 days holiday plus bank holidays and a market-leading pension scheme, we offer a range of flexible benefits to support our people across all aspects of their lives.

Your rewards package includes a choice of benefits, such as electric vehicle leasing, enhanced parental leave, health insurance, discounts and employee pricing.

Flexible working means you can work from home (if you wish) and we'll provide a suite of IT equipment to ensure that you can work remotely comfortably and effectively. Our Azure Platform Engineering team can work flexibly from home or the office, balancing the working day with personal commitments. We have offices in London, Brighton, Exeter and Plymouth.

Steve Bowerman, Principal Software Engineer says It's an exciting time. We've got a great start-up culture in a larger organisation, with the corporate stability and backing. And that real emphasis on being able to affect change is very important for me.

At EDF, everyone's welcome. We strive to create an inclusive and diverse environment where everyone has a voice and where you feel confident being yourself. We're committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We'd like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.

We're a disability confident employer and we'll do all we can to help with your application, making adjustments as you need.

We'll value the difference you bring and offer opportunities for you to thrive and succeed.
