Job Title: Support Engineer

Security Clearance Requirement: Eligible to obtain and maintain an active UK security clearance

Location: Remote based in UK, 25% travel requirement to the Gloucestershire Area (not Gloucester).

Position Overview

We are seeking a Support Engineer to provide customer-focused Level 1 and Level 2 support across secure, defence-oriented cloud environments. This role is central to the day-to-day operational success of our customer platforms, with a primary focus on responsive support, clear communication, and disciplined execution.

You will support and administer Azure Landing Zone environments, handle incidents and service requests, and become a recognised internal “application champion” for the suite of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) platforms we deliver to customers (modern ways of working and CI/CD enablement tooling). By owning the operational delivery and application administration workstream end-to-end, you ensure platform stability, user productivity, and a high-quality customer experience, while enabling the wider team to maintain momentum across the broader programme of delivery and improvement.

This role suits someone who takes pride in operational excellence, enjoys solving customer problems, and is motivated to learn and grow within a security-conscious environment.

Responsibilities

• Provide Level 1 and Level 2 customer support, including triage, troubleshooting, resolution, and escalation with clear handovers where required.
• Act as a frontline point of contact for customer queries and operational issues, maintaining a professional and calm approach under pressure.
• Administer and support Azure Landing Zone environments, including:
• • Identity and access administration (RBAC and privileged access workflows where applicable)
  • Policy and compliance support (understanding and applying guardrails, reporting, remediation)
  • Subscription and resource administration (resource groups, tagging standards, cost controls, hygiene)
  • Core networking operations (VNets, NSGs, private connectivity components, routing concepts)
  • Monitoring and alert response (alert triage, diagnostics, evidence capture, escalation)
• Become an internal “application champion” for customer-facing enterprise platforms (modern collaboration, productivity, and CI/CD enablement), developing strong capability in platform administration, configuration, and user support.
• Perform routine operational tasks consistently and accurately, including access changes, configuration updates, health checks, and documentation updates.
• Maintain high-quality customer-facing and internal documentation, including runbooks, support procedures, known errors, and troubleshooting guides.
• Support security-first operations by following secure handling practices, working within customer constraints, and maintaining strong awareness of risk and assurance requirements.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by identifying recurring issues, proposing automation opportunities, and improving support workflows.
• Collaborate with distributed teams and customer stakeholders, ensuring expectations, status, and outcomes are communicated clearly.

Required Expertise

• Experience providing Level 1 / Level 2 technical support in a customer-facing environment, with strong ticket discipline and a focus on resolution quality.
• Practical exposure to Microsoft Azure administration (not necessarily design-level architecture), with willingness to learn and develop capability quickly.
• Exposure to Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools and practices (e.g., Terraform, Bicep, or Pulumi), including the ability to review, run, and apply controlled changes under guidance.
• Solid understanding of general networking fundamentals (IP addressing, DNS, routing concepts, firewalls, troubleshooting approach).
• Strong troubleshooting mindset: ability to gather evidence, form hypotheses, isolate causes, and document outcomes.
• Comfort with scripting and command-line tooling (PowerShell and/or Bash, Ansible), including basic automation for repeatable operational tasks.
• Strong attention to detail and a consistent approach to following procedures, especially in secure or regulated environments.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce customer-ready updates and maintain accurate documentation.
• Strong security awareness and judgement when operating in sensitive environments (data handling, least privilege, change control mindset).
• Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and remain effective during busy support periods.
