Cloud Technical Specialist

Hybrid – Glasgow

We're looking for an experienced Cloud Technical Specialist to join a leading technology consultancy supporting a major enterprise customer through the delivery of cloud infrastructure and managed services.

This is a senior, hands-on technical role combining cloud architecture, engineering and technical leadership. You'll work closely with client stakeholders while collaborating with distributed engineering teams to design, implement and continuously improve enterprise cloud platforms.

We're looking for someone who enjoys staying close to the technology, leading technical discussions and solving complex engineering challenges rather than moving into a purely governance or management role.

What You'll Be Doing

• Designing, implementing and supporting enterprise cloud infrastructure.
• Developing secure, scalable and resilient cloud solutions.
• Acting as a trusted technical adviser for senior technical stakeholders.
• Leading technical discussions and providing guidance to engineering teams.
• Reviewing cloud designs, engineering changes and technical approaches.
• Supporting the resolution of complex infrastructure and platform issues.
• Working across networking, security, identity, compute, storage and cloud services.
• Driving Infrastructure as Code and automation best practice.
• Collaborating with distributed and nearshore engineering teams to deliver high-quality cloud services.
• Taking ownership of one or more technical capability areas, ensuring engineering quality and consistency across delivery.

What We're Looking For

• Significant experience as a Cloud Architect, Senior Cloud Engineer, Platform Engineer or similar.
• Strong hands-on expertise with AWS and/or Microsoft Azure.
• Experience designing and delivering enterprise cloud solutions.
• Excellent Infrastructure as Code experience using Terraform.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automation, ideally GitHub Actions.
• Knowledge of monitoring, observability and cloud operations.
• Strong understanding of networking, security, identity and cloud infrastructure.
• Experience mentoring engineers and providing technical leadership.
• Excellent troubleshooting and stakeholder communication skills.
• Experience working with distributed engineering or managed service teams.

Desirable

• Experience within Cloud Managed Services.
• Exposure to both AWS and Azure.
• Platform Engineering or DevOps experience.
• Understanding of SRE and modern cloud operating models.
• AWS and/or Azure certifications.

If you think you're a fit we'd love to hear from you.
