About the opportunity

A large national organisation is looking for a hands-on Cloud Operations Engineer to help build and run its cloud platforms across AWS & Azure. This is a role where you'll own infrastructure as code day to day, keeping a busy multi-cloud environment secure, reliable and cost-effective, while working closely with application teams and vendors.

It's also a chance to get in early on how AI-enabled automation can change cloud operations. Alongside core platform work, you'll help introduce better automation tools and practices, and build a community of practice around the technologies the team has chosen.

The role

- Build and maintain cloud infrastructure as code using Terraform
- Help deliver cloud projects from design and cost analysis through to build
- Introduce and improve automation tools and processes, including AI-enabled automation
- Take part in the team's on-call support rotation

What you'll bring





- Hands-on infrastructure as code (IaC) experience, especially Terraform, building secure, reusable, version-controlled infrastructure
- Experience building, deploying and supporting workloads in AWS and/or Azure
- Containerisation experience with Docker and Kubernetes
- Competency in at least one scripting or programming language, plus CI/CD and change control experience
- Strong troubleshooting skills and clear written communication, including technical documentation

Excellent to have: SRE and observability, AWS ECS, cloud security and cost management, Entra ID/IAM/DNS, or experience with 24/7 mission-critical systems.

Culture

- Close collaboration with application teams and vendors
- A team that values finding better ways of working and owning its impact
- Room to share knowledge and help build a community of practice
