Senior Platform Developer

About the Company

My client is a well-established healthcare software company building platforms that hospitals and clinicians across Europe rely on to track treatments, analyse outcomes, and reduce administrative burden. Their products collect and manage disease-specific clinical data, helping improve patient care and operational efficiency.

They are currently undergoing a full platform modernisation, including software, infrastructure, and deployment workflows, while integrating AI-assisted tools to improve engineering processes.

Role Overview

We are seeking a Senior Platform Developer to work across both software development and platform/cloud engineering. This is a truly hybrid role: roughly half coding and half cloud/platform/automation.

The role is highly impactful: you will help modernise legacy systems, build new platform components, improve Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS), automate Terraform infrastructure, and drive deployment automation for multiple healthcare environments.

Key Responsibilities

Software Development & Modernisation

Platform & Cloud Engineering (Azure + AKS)

• Maintain and improve AKS clusters
• Enhance observability, security, and resiliency of platform components
• Support developers in running services reliably on cloud platforms

• Build reusable Terraform modules and improve state management
• Automate provisioning for multiple customer/hospital environments

Deployment Automation

• Build and maintain automated deployment pipelines

• Move the organisation towards self-service, fully automated deployment workflows

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years professional software engineering experience
• Strong experience across backend development and DevOps/cloud engineering
• Solid understanding of Azure and Kubernetes (AKS)
• Hands-on experience with Terraform
• Proven experience modernising or migrating legacy systems
• Familiarity with AI-assisted engineering tools (for code, refactoring, or architecture)
• Ability to simplify complex systems and drive long-term technical improvements

Nice to Have

• Java, Grails, or legacy-to-modern migration experience
• Experience in regulated industries or healthcare
• Knowledge of microservices, CI/CD, GitOps, or automation pipelines
• Interest in platform engineering, internal tooling, or AI-driven development workflows

What Makes This Role Exciting

• High-impact role with ownership of long-term technical improvements
• Part of a platform modernisation programme influencing the company’s technical direction
• Use cutting-edge AI-assisted development tools
• Opportunity to work in a mission-driven healthcare environment
• Competitive package, excellent benefits, and hybrid working
