Our client is working on a critical UK healthcare integration platform, part of the UK's Critical National Infrastructure (CNI). The system enables secure, high-availability data exchange across national healthcare services, and they need a Senior Python Engineer to support ongoing development, security and platform stability.

Experience supporting incidents, advising product teams, and "shifting security left" will be valuable assets.

Core Requirements:
Strong Python engineering background
Cloud experience (AWS preferred)
Terraform or other IaC
GitHub Actions or similar CI/CD pipelines
Observability tooling
Secure SDLC understanding
Willing to join on-call rota (1 in 6)

Beneficial Experience:
Reusable IaC modules
CI job templates
Platform engineering best practices
DevOps/force-multiplier mindset
