From Valarian Technologies Limited's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Valarian Technologies is a dual-use technology company building critical tools to safeguard the future in an era of evolving global security challenges. We're rethinking security beyond traditional military domains, addressing asymmetric threats that impact our technological advantage, economic strength, and democratic institutions.
We build Acra – the platform foundation for everything we do as a dual-use technology company. The platform’s name, rooted in the Greek word for citadel (or, fortress), reflects the design and purpose of our infrastructure-agnostic secure enclaves: protecting critical data.
Some of the government and commercial workflows include: increased operational resiliency for mission-critical systems and functions; enabling organisations to more quickly and widely adopt emerging technologies while ensuring the integrity of their intellectual property; information flow during disaster response scenarios, and zero-trust / least-privilege environments for M&A, attorney-client privileged communications, etc. And we’ve only scratched the surface.
At our core, we're driven by a shared mission and a belief in making a tangible impact on our world. Whether you join our London HQ or the wider global organisation, you’ll be a part of collaborative, high-performing teams, creating cutting-edge software, platforms, and infrastructure.
We are looking for a Platform Engineer to help build the internal platform capabilities that allow our engineering teams to move quickly without compromising security, reliability, or operational control.
This role is more software and product-oriented than a traditional infrastructure role. You will work closely with backend engineers, infrastructure engineers, product teams, and leadership to design and build the tooling, workflows, integrations, and platform primitives that make ACRA easier to develop, deploy, operate, and extend.
You will treat the platform as a product. Your users are our engineers. Your goal is to make the safe, reliable, and repeatable path the easiest path: through clean abstractions, useful automation, golden paths, reusable templates, deployment workflows, observability patterns, and developer-facing tooling.
We are looking for someone hands-on, curious, and comfortable working across a broad set of DevOps, platform, and CNCF tools. You should have a software engineering mindset and care about maintainability, automation, user experience, reliability, and long-term platform design, not just scripts and infrastructure tasks.
You should be able to take ownership of defined areas, move quickly, work well with engineers across the stack, and turn ambiguous platform needs into useful, reliable systems.
This is not an internal IT role, cloud administration role, or generic DevOps support role. You will help build the platform as a product.
Our culture is built on inclusivity, compassion and flexibility – we want everyone to be empowered to achieve their goals at Valarian.
The work we do is vital, but so are the connections that make it happen. We thrive on the shared energy, spontaneous conversations, and mutual trust built when we spend time together. We operate on a hybrid model, gathering in our London office 3 days a week to support one another and collaborate.
We are committed to ensuring a fair and inclusive recruitment process and providing employment opportunities to all applicants. Decision recruitment, hiring, and employment are based solely on qualifications, skills, and experience relevant to the job requirements.
Valarian Technologies Limited is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from individuals regardless of race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender, identity or expression, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, marital status, veteran, amnesty, or any other legally protected characteristic.
