Veterans in Cloud Computing: A Military‑to‑Civilian Pathway into Cloud Careers

Introduction The United Kingdom’s public‑cloud market will exceed £45 billion by 2026 (Gartner forecast), fuelled by government digital‑service mandates, fintech scale‑ups, and the MOD’s own Cloud Strategic Roadmap 2025. From hybrid defence networks to NHS electronic health records, almost every mission‑critical workload is moving to AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP). That explosive demand collides with a nationwide skills shortage—over 135,000 unfilled cloud roles in 2024, according to TechUK. Veterans already possess the security clearances, network know‑how, and operational discipline that cloud employers crave. This guide shows you how to translate your military experience into cloud‑native language, leverage Ministry of Defence (MoD) transition funding, and secure a rewarding second career (with salaries starting at £40k and rising above £100k for cleared DevSecOps leads).
