The Company

Our client is a well-established organisation undergoing continued digital transformation, with technology at the heart of its operations. They're investing heavily in modern cloud infrastructure and are looking for an experienced Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to help drive the reliability, performance, and security of their core systems.

The Role

You'll join a small, technically strong team responsible for the configuration, administration, and optimisation of Microsoft Azure and private data centre environments. Acting as a subject matter expert, you'll ensure services remain secure, scalable, and highly available—supporting both day-to-day operations and long-term strategic projects.

You'll collaborate with teams across Networking, Security, Modern Workplace, and Software Development to deliver robust, integrated infrastructure solutions that underpin critical business systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Configure, administer, and maintain IT systems and applications across Microsoft Azure and hybrid environments
  • Manage and optimise virtual machines, storage, and networking resources to ensure high performance and uptime
  • Implement Azure services including SSO, Application Gateways, Load Balancers, and hybrid identity solutions (Azure AD Connect)
  • Design and maintain hybrid file storage using Azure File Sync, DFS, and Azure Storage
  • Lead on incident escalations and problem management, driving root cause analysis and long-term solutions
  • Support disaster recovery and backup processes, ensuring recoverability across cloud and on-prem environments
  • Implement and maintain security and compliance controls across infrastructure platforms
  • Automate repetitive processes using PowerShell, Terraform, or Azure Automation
  • Contribute to documentation, knowledge sharing, and continuous improvement initiatives

About You

You're an experienced Infrastructure or Systems Engineer with a strong technical grounding in Microsoft Azure and hybrid environments. You thrive in complex, high-availability settings and enjoy collaborating across teams to deliver enterprise-grade solutions.

Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years' experience in IT infrastructure, cloud, or systems engineering
  • Strong knowledge of Azure administration, virtualisation, networking, and identity services
  • Proficiency with PowerShell or similar scripting tools (Terraform, Bicep, Python, etc.)
  • Background in Windows Server, Active Directory, Group Policy, and related technologies
  • Experience implementing security best practices in enterprise environments
  • Relevant certifications (e.g. Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator / Solutions Architect) are a plus

Why Apply?

You'll be joining a forward-thinking organisation where technology investment is a genuine priority. Expect a role with autonomy, modern tooling, and the opportunity to influence the future of the company's infrastructure landscape.
