Company Overview Metrea delivers effects-as-a-service to national security partners across five domains and more than a dozen mission areas. These include airborne ISR, electronic warfare, secure communications, aerial refueling, special air missions, aerial firefighting, and advanced simulation. We own the whole stack: designing, building, and operating turnkey capabilities that give our partners decisive, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats. Our operating model is built around three interlocking pillars. The Support Groups provide a global shared-service – spanning people, finance, platform, operations, legal, and engagement. This frees up our Core Groups, who develop and own mission capabilities end-to-end, to focus entirely on delivery. The Market Groups apply a regional lens, ensuring that our agile and adaptable capabilities remain aligned to the wicked problems that matter most to our partners across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific. At the heart of our model is a simple but powerful idea: be a true partner with skin in the game. Our partners need effects, not just equipment. By owning the full stack – from the lab to the field – we are able to drive a continuous cycle of innovation that keeps our partners ahead. It's a fast-moving, intellectually demanding environment where talented people are given real responsibility, work on problems that matter, and contribute to an enterprise that is growing quickly and deliberately. Headquartered in Washington, DC, with facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, as well as Continental Europe and Asia-Pacific. Group Overview This role sits within Platform Group area of Metrea. The Platform Group
rovides the Information Technology and Information Systems ecosystem that Metrea is utilising for the day-to-day operations, communication, collaboration and information sharing across its Platform business block. Position Summary In this role, you will lead the design and operation of secure, reliable Azure platforms that enable Metrea's UK teams to build, deploy, and support mission-focused services with confidence. You will shape how we use Azure, Azure DevOps, GitHub, automation, and DevSecOps practices to improve delivery speed, platform resilience, and developer experience.
You will be successful if you can combine hands-on engineering depth with technical leadership: solving complex platform challenges, mentoring others, and making pragmatic decisions for sensitive defence environments.
