Headquartered in Melbourne with a global footprint spanning the UK, Cyprus, and Bulgaria, we build the high-performance infrastructure that connects the world to CFD markets - reliably, securely and with precision.\nWe're after an engineer who treats infrastructure as software: versioned, reviewed, tested and released. Someone who is as comfortable reviewing a Terraform pull request as they are tracing a production latency spike, and who leaves every codebase, pipeline and security posture better than they found it. The Senior Cloud / DevOps Engineer will own the health, security and evolution of the AWS estate that our trading services, client-facing applications and internal systems run on.\nTo drive real impact in this role, you will:\nOwn the Cloud Platform: Design, build and operate our multi-account AWS environments, with Terraform as the backbone for every change, from modules to drift detection to plan-and-review.\nBuild the Paved Road: Own CI/CD in GitHub Actions and build boilerplates for .NET, Go and Python so teams can ship standardised, production-ready environments with minimal friction.\nEngineer Security In: Apply least-privilege IAM, secrets management, network controls and CSPM tooling like Wiz, and embed scanning and policy-as-code directly into pipelines.\nAutomate Compliance: Build continuous evidence and controls against SOC 2, ISO 27001 and the AWS Well-Architected Framework, so audit readiness is always on, not a scramble.\nOwn Observability and Reliability: Run the CloudWatch stack, define SLOs, lead incident response and post-incident reviews, and keep runbooks sharp enough for another engineer to follow.\nLead Without the Title: Set platform standards, review infrastructure and pipeline changes from other engineers, mentor the team on cloud and security practice and help shape the roadmap.\nPartner Across the Business: Work closely with Infrastructure and Security, Product Engineering squads and Trading Platform Operations to keep the estate secure, resilient and easy to build on.\nRequirements\nWhat You'll Bring:\nSignificant hands-on experience designing, building and operating production AWS workloads, including multi-account setups, VPC networking, IAM, EC2, Lambda, Fargate, RDS and CloudWatch.\nExpert-level Terraform, including authoring reusable modules, managing remote state and refactoring live infrastructure without downtime.\nStrong GitHub Actions experience across application and infrastructure pipelines, with secure credential handling.\nA genuine software engineering background in at least one general-purpose language (Python, Go, TypeScript or C#), with tests, code review and release discipline as habit.\nDemonstrable cloud security engineering, including least-privilege IAM, RBAC, SSO, MFA, secrets management and remediation using CSPM tooling such as Wiz.\nExperience automating compliance evidence against ISO 27001, SOC 2 and the AWS Well-Architected Framework\nA track record leading incidents and post-incident reviews under real change control.\nClear communication skills, including writing design docs and explaining trade-offs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.\nAvailability for an on-call rotation and occasional out-of-hours maintenance.\nBonus if you hold an AWS Professional or Security certification, have worked in a regulated financial services environment (ASIC, FCA or CySEC), have exposure to trading platforms, low-latency systems or market data, or have contributed to a pen test remediation or certification cycle.\nBenefits\nWhat's it like to work at Eightcap?\nWe have built a performance-driven environment where you're given the autonomy to drive change and the accountability to own the results. We provide a space for the ambitious, adaptable and collaborative to deliver outcomes that fuel our success while building the skills and experience that defines a career.\nWe also support you through:\nOngoing investment in your career development, including technical and professional training.\nWellness and lifestyle perks, such as monthly corporate massages.\nDrinks every Friday.\nParental leave entitlements.\nStaff referral bonus programme.\nAnnual flu vaccinations.\nPurchased leave.\nNovated leasing options for vehicle financing and management.\nA great CBD location with easy access to public transport.\nA multicultural, collaborative and supportive team culture.\nBeing part of exciting new projects for the company.\nRegular social activities.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4542,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Forex & CFD Brokers"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-22T05:37:17Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":24,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.695,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":47,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-11-08T05:47:12Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/eightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/eightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-09T02:23:56Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5026,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-10T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":674903},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=674903"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Feightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Feightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Feightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/eightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Feightcap-senior-cloud-devops-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":1106207}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"eightcap.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":1106207},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
