Role: Azure Cloud Infrastructure Engineer

Location: Nottingham, Beeston

Working Model: Once per week in the office.

Salary: Up to £55k plus benefits

How would you like to join a friendly, passionate, and supportive team that utilizes cutting-edge technology and collaborates regularly?

Want to lead the way with a transformative Azure cloud migration?

If this sounds like a great time to you, have a read!

I’m working with a lovely Nottingham-based FinTech company in the automotive space, which is looking to expand its Infrastructure team with an Azure Cloud Infrastructure Engineer. You’ll be their only DevOps/ Cloud Engineer specialist in an Infrastructure team, so you really need to know your stuff!

This role will see you owning, extending, and constantly improving their cloud infrastructure estate. As their subject matter expert, you’ll also get to disseminate your knowledge to the rest of the team.

You’ll be leading on a migration from on-prem to Azure cloud, so experience of doing this before, successfully, would be spot on.

You’ll be getting involved in a variety of work, including building internal systems, e.g. a CRM, and solutions that are both efficient and easy to scale, troubleshooting performance issues, reactive work to resolve incidents, and liaising with your immediate team and wider colleagues to make sure what you’re designing and delivering is meeting business needs, and hopefully, exceeding them!

At a glance, here are what you’ll need to be great at this role:

  • Vast knowledge of the Azure Stack

  • An infrastructure background is very much preferred, but if you’ve not come from infra, you’ll understand the network architecture of Azure.

  • Excellent knowledge in either Terraform or Bicep for IaC (Infrastructure as Code)

  • Team collaboration and knowledge-sharing capabilities are very necessary

  • Experience in monitoring resources in Azure, either using log analytics or similar technologies.

  • Experience creating CI/CD pipelines.

  • Azure certification

  • Knowledge in containerization would be nice, but not essential.

    They are a small company but have a great structure in place, which means that progression routes are well-established, pay reviews are regular, and you’ll know what you need to do to reach that next level!

    They have lots of flexibility around their working hours and location, etc, so you can start work between 7 am-10 am, as long as their core hours of 10 am-3 pm are covered, you’re free to work when you want to, as long as you get what you need done, they’re happy.

    If this sounds great to you, apply today or drop me a line to find out more!

    We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background
