Lead Infrastructure Engineer | BMC Helix, AutoSys, IaC | Government Tooling Behind Services Used by Millions | ***Active SC Clearance***

 

  • Salary: up to £60,000
  • Location: Manchester or Birmingham
  • Security clearance: SC required


I'm hiring permanent Lead Infrastructure Engineers to support and optimise the BMC Helix estate of a large UK government department, along with its AutoSys Workload Automation (WLA) platform. You'll be based in Manchester or Birmingham. You'll keep the tooling services operational teams depend on stable and available, so the department's own engineers can focus on strategic work.

You'll look after BMC Helix Operations Manager (BHOM), Helix Capacity Optimisation (BHCO) and Helix Discovery, and build Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for a new SaaS integration. It's a lead role at SFIA 5, so you'll bring technical direction as well as delivery, and you'll join the out-of-hours support rota.

What They're Looking For (Non-Negotiables)
Demonstrable experience in one or more of these:

  • BMC Helix Operations Manager (BHOM)
  • BMC Helix Capacity Optimisation (BHCO)
  • BMC Helix Discovery
  • AutoSys Workload Automation (WLA)
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
  • DevOps engineering practices


You'll also need the experience to lead: setting technical direction, owning service improvement and supporting the engineers around you.

What You'll Work With

  • The full BMC Helix suite in live production
  • AutoSys estate: BAU support, maintenance and optimisation
  • SaaS software asset management integration, built as code
  • Out-of-hours support rota
  • Operational teams across multiple tooling services


Nice to Haves

  • Flexera Software Asset Management (SAM) platform
  • Experience across more than one of the core technologies above


Why Join / Projects
This role exists so the department's own team can focus on strategic initiatives, which means they're trusting you with the running and improvement of the tooling estate. You'll have room to shape how it's run, not only keep it running.

  • You'll own optimisation across the Helix suite, from monitoring and event management to capacity and discovery.
  • You'll build the IaC for a Flexera SaaS integration, so there's new build work alongside BAU.
  • You'll improve the team's resilience, including how out-of-hours support works.
  • The services you support sit behind public services that millions of people rely on.


Employee Benefits

  • Private healthcare
  • Pension
  • Employee rewards and discounts platform
