  • Design hybrid cloud environments, including connectivity between on-premise infrastructure and Azure.
  • Provide architectural guidance and hands-on engineering support to Cloud and DevOps teams.
  • Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code and automated deployment solutions.
  • Support scripting, development and automation using PowerShell, Python or similar technologies.
  • Design and implement CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes using Azure DevOps or equivalent tooling.
  • Work with Azure identity, access management and security services.
  • Support cloud migrations, infrastructure transformation and application modernisation initiatives.
  • Ensure solutions meet requirements for performance, resilience, security, governance and cost optimisation.
  • Troubleshoot complex cloud infrastructure, storage and integration challenges.
  • Produce architecture documentation, technical designs and implementation guidance.
  • Engage with customers and stakeholders to translate business and technical requirements into effective cloud solutions.

What We're Looking For

  • Strong experience designing and delivering Microsoft Azure cloud architecture.
  • Proven experience as an Azure Architect, Cloud Architect, Technical Architect or senior Cloud Engineer.
  • Strong understanding of Azure infrastructure, including compute, networking, storage and identity.
  • Hands-on experience with Azure Files, Azure Storage and hybrid file-sharing solutions.
  • Experience designing and supporting Azure storage migrations and integration with on-premise environments.
  • Good understanding of Azure networking, including VNets, private endpoints, VPNs and hybrid connectivity.
  • Experience with Microsoft Entra ID, identity and access management and cloud security.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, Bicep or ARM templates.
  • Strong understanding of Azure DevOps, CI/CD and deployment automation.
  • Scripting or development experience using PowerShell, Python, C# or similar.
  • Experience designing secure, highly available and resilient cloud solutions.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving capability.
  • Experience working within multidisciplinary technical and delivery teams.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills.

Desirable Experience

Experience across some of the following would be beneficial:

  • Azure File Sync, Azure NetApp Files and enterprise storage solutions.
  • Azure Virtual Desktop and enterprise file services.
  • Windows Server, Active Directory and hybrid identity environments.
  • Azure Backup, disaster recovery and business continuity solutions.
  • Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), containers and cloud-native technologies.
  • Azure Functions, APIs and application integration.
  • GitHub Actions or wider DevOps tooling.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
