Who we are
About bp/team
bp technology is the central organization for all software and platform development. We build all the technology that powers bp’s businesses, from upstream energy production to downstream energy delivery to our customers. We have a variety of teams depending on your areas of interest, including infrastructure and backend services through to customer-facing web and native applications. We encourage our teams to adapt quickly by using native AWS and Azure services, including serverless, and enable them to pick the best technology for a given problem. This is meant to empower our software and platform engineers while allowing them to learn and develop themselves.
Let me tell you about the role
The Senior Cloud Engineer is responsible for engineering, enhancing, and operating bp’s AWS Platform, ensuring it remains secure, reliable, scalable, cost-effective, and aligned with bp’s cloud strategy.
Working as a senior member of the AWS Platform Engineering team, this role delivers the technical capabilities that enable application teams across bp to consume AWS safely and efficiently. The role focuses on building reusable platform capabilities, improving existing services, removing technical debt, and continuously modernising the platform to take advantage of evolving AWS capabilities.
The Senior Cloud Engineer works closely with the AWS Platform Architect, Technical Delivery Lead, Platform Engineering teams, and peer technology services to translate architectural direction into practical, production-ready engineering outcomes.
This is a hands-on engineering role requiring deep AWS expertise, strong software engineering practices, and the ability to solve complex technical challenges across the breadth of the AWS platform. The role does not have line management responsibility but provides technical leadership, mentoring, and engineering expertise within the squad.
The role requires a strong platform approach - building reusable capabilities that can support many application teams rather than delivering one-off solution.
