A leading global software engineering organisation is seeking a Senior Azure Cloud Engineer to join their expanding team in BGC. This is an exceptional opportunity for you to play a pivotal role in designing, managing, and optimising robust Azure cloud infrastructure that supports high-profile clients across Europe, APAC, the Philippines, and the USA. You will thrive in a collaborative, inclusive environment that values your expertise and encourages continuous learning and professional growth. With a hybrid work setup, immediate private HMO and insurance coverage from day one, and a host of unique benefits such as milestone celebrations, skill enhancement opportunities, and generous support for life’s special moments, this role offers both stability and excitement. If you are passionate about leveraging cutting-edge cloud technologies to drive innovation while enjoying flexibility and recognition for your contributions, this is the perfect place for you.

  • Enjoy international exposure by collaborating with global teams on complex projects spanning MedTech, Industry, Finance, and Transportation sectors, ensuring your skills remain at the forefront of technology.
  • Benefit from a supportive environment that prioritises your career development through free technical and non-technical training, open communication channels, and clear pathways for recognition and advancement.
  • Experience true work-life integration with a flexible hybrid work setup, comprehensive health coverage from day one, unique milestone rewards including European travel opportunities, and thoughtful perks designed to celebrate personal achievements.

What you'll do:

As a Senior Azure Cloud Engineer based in BGC, you will be entrusted with shaping the future of cloud infrastructure for a global leader in software engineering. Your days will be filled with architecting secure solutions on the Azure platform that empower clients worldwide to achieve operational excellence. You will automate critical processes using state-of-the-art tools like Terraform and GitLab while ensuring every deployment meets stringent security standards. By monitoring system performance and proactively optimising resources, you will help deliver resilient IT services that exceed expectations. Your expertise will be vital during major migrations from legacy systems or other clouds into Azure—guiding teams through complex transitions with confidence. Collaboration is at the heart of this role; you’ll work hand-in-hand with DevOps engineers, network administrators, security professionals, and application developers to create seamless integrations that drive business success. Whether supporting day-to-day operations or spearheading innovative automation initiatives with PowerShell or ServiceNow, your impact will be felt across every layer of the organisation’s technology landscape.

  • Design, manage, and maintain scalable Azure cloud platforms to ensure optimal performance for mission-critical applications.
  • Architect secure and highly available solutions tailored to meet diverse business needs across multiple industries.
  • Monitor Azure infrastructure proactively to guarantee cost-efficiency, resilience, and compliance with relevant regulations.
  • Automate deployments and configuration management using Infrastructure-as-Code practices such as Terraform and CI/CD pipelines like GitLab.
  • Implement advanced security features within Azure to safeguard data protection and regulatory compliance at all times.
  • Drive ongoing optimisation of the Azure environment by identifying areas for improvement and implementing best practices.
  • Oversee daily operations of Azure cloud services while providing expert guidance during transitions from on-premise or multi-cloud setups.
  • Lead or participate in migration projects moving infrastructure to Azure cloud services, ensuring seamless execution and minimal disruption.
  • Develop automation capabilities using PowerShell and ServiceNow to streamline infrastructure management processes.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional IT teams—including DevOps, network, security, and application specialists—to ensure smooth integration of Azure components.

What you bring:

To excel as a Senior Azure Cloud Engineer in this forward-thinking organisation, you will bring extensive hands-on experience architecting enterprise-grade solutions on Microsoft’s cloud platform. Your background includes working internationally—ideally within regulated sectors like finance—where you have honed your ability to design secure networks that comply with global standards. You are adept at translating business requirements into technical architectures that maximise efficiency while minimising risk. Your fluency in Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform ensures rapid yet reliable deployments; meanwhile your grasp of CI/CD methodologies streamlines ongoing development cycles. You understand the nuances of identity management via Entra ID protocols (SAML/oAuth 2.0/OIDC), safeguarding user access across distributed systems. Your comfort administering Windows Server OS environments is matched only by your proficiency orchestrating Docker containers for agile application delivery. Beyond technical prowess, your interpersonal skills shine when collaborating across departments—enabling you to communicate complex ideas clearly whether presenting solutions to senior stakeholders or mentoring junior colleagues. Certifications like Azure Solutions Architect Expert further validate your commitment to professional excellence.

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science or related quantitative field demonstrating strong academic foundation in technology disciplines.
  • At least 7 years’ experience as an Azure Engineer within international settings—preferably including financial industry exposure—showcasing deep practical knowledge of enterprise-scale environments.
  • Proven ability in system architectural design for robust cloud solutions that balance scalability with security requirements.
  • Comprehensive understanding of networking concepts (including firewalls/VPNs) alongside advanced security protocols essential for protecting sensitive data.
  • Expertise in FinOps principles enabling effective cost management within large-scale cloud infrastructures.
  • Hands-on experience with ITSM/ITIL frameworks ensuring efficient service delivery aligned with organisational goals.
  • Mastery of Infrastructure-as-Code practices (Terraform) combined with proficiency in CI/CD platforms such as GitLab for automated deployments.
  • In-depth familiarity with Entra ID authentication protocols (SAML/oAuth 2.0/OIDC) supporting secure access management strategies.
  • Solid command of Windows Server OS administration complemented by strong Docker containerisation skills for modern application hosting environments.
  • Exceptional organisational abilities allowing you to prioritise tasks effectively while managing multiple concurrent projects without compromising quality outcomes.
