About the role
We are looking for an experienced Sr. Cloud Engineer to lead the design and operation of secure, scalable cloud environments. This role focuses on building resilient multi-cloud infrastructure across AWS and Microsoft Azure while advancing automation, governance, and operational reliability. The ideal candidate brings strong expertise in Terraform, cloud architecture, and enterprise-wide security practices, along with a practical approach to performance monitoring and cost control.
Responsibilities:
Build and manage multi-cloud infrastructure across AWS and Azure with a focus on security, scalability, and reliability.
Create and enhance infrastructure automation using Terraform to standardize provisioning, configuration, and ongoing platform management.
Establish enterprise cloud governance by designing landing zones, multi-account structures, and policy controls across AWS and Azure environments.
Monitor platform health, security posture, compliance status, and service availability using native and third-party observability tools.
Partner with application and infrastructure teams to develop backup, disaster recovery, high-availability, and failover solutions that support business continuity.
Review cloud environments regularly to improve resource utilization, strengthen security controls, and reduce unnecessary spend.
Advise stakeholders on cloud architecture, operational best practices, troubleshooting, and approaches for moving on-premises systems into cloud platforms.
Design and maintain identity and access management models, including role-based access and federated identity solutions across cloud accounts and subscriptions.
Produce and maintain clear technical documentation covering architecture standards, configurations, procedures, and support processes.
Contribute to capacity planning, performance tuning, and long-term platform optimization initiatives across enterprise cloud services.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
