Designing scalable, secure and highly available cloud infrastructure

· Creating reference architectures, technical standards and design patterns

· Designing solutions across Azure, AWS or GCP environments

· Supporting migrations from on-premise infrastructure into the cloud

· Defining Infrastructure-as-Code approaches using Terraform, Bicep, ARM or similar

· Designing cloud networking across VNETs/VPCs, routing, DNS, load balancing and firewalls

· Building security into cloud architecture through Zero Trust, IAM, RBAC, encryption and network segmentation

· Designing resilience, disaster recovery and backup strategies

· Working across Kubernetes, containers and serverless technologies

· Driving automation and improving the performance and cost efficiency of the cloud estate

· Evaluating new technologies and helping shape future technical direction

· Mentoring engineers and helping develop the wider Cloud and Platform Engineering capability

What we're looking for

The sweet spot is someone with several years of strong Cloud and Infrastructure Engineering experience who is now taking on more responsibility for technical design and architecture.

You could already be a Cloud Architect, or you could be the Senior/Lead Engineer who's designing solutions, challenging technical decisions, mentoring others and thinking about the wider platform rather than simply delivering individual pieces of work.

You'll ideally have strong experience with Azure, AWS or GCP alongside infrastructure-as-code, cloud networking, identity and access management, automation and cloud security.

• Experience with Terraform, Bicep, Kubernetes, serverless architecture, hybrid environments and FinOps would all be valuable.
