Infrastructure Designer

Job description

The purpose of this role is to work on the TSA/Network Protect projects alongside the System Design role and specifically the logical network designs for vendor kit and migrations. This role is expected to need to access secure data so will need to be onshore/UK based. This is a high level role where the individual will be trusted to understand the architecture and make the right decisions within the designs they produce. This is a design role but with a heavy network focus.

The skill involves defining the components and services that make up the technology environment, their connections, interrelationships and operating parameters, which together ensure infrastructure solutions support current and future business needs.

Activities may include, but are not limited to:

developing detailed infrastructure design specifications and diagrams
ensuring compatibility and integration between different infrastructure components
designing infrastructure for scalability, performance, reliability and security from the outset
ensuring designs adhere to industry standards, regulatory requirements and security protocols
collaborating with stakeholders to align infrastructure design with business objectives
maintaining comprehensive documentation of the design process and decisions
integrating cloud services into the infrastructure design.

Systems design activities may include, but are not limited to:

using design concepts to develop a systems design and provide the basis for systems construction and verification
designing or selecting system components
designing systems compatible with contemporary computing architectures and selection of components such as cloud computing service models and edge computing
designing cyber-physical systems that integrate computational and physical components
considering human factors and socio-technical aspects when designing systems that involve significant human interaction
developing a complete set of detailed models, properties and/or characteristics described in a form suitable for implementation
adopting and adapting of system design life cycle models based on the context of the work using predictive (plan-driven) approaches or adaptive (iterative/agile) approaches for system design
adhering to regulatory requirements and organisational standards including security.
