Cloud Engineer
Are you ready to take ownership of enterprise-level cloud projects in a global environment?
If you're a Cloud Engineer who thrives on designing scalable infrastructure, leading by example, and delivering secure, high-availability cloud solutions, this role is your next big challenge. We’re working with a top-tier legal services organisation who are investing heavily in its tech platforms, and this newly created opportunity sits right at the heart of that transformation.
The Role & Setup
This is a full-time, permanent Cloud Engineer role based in Central London (Liverpool Street), with flexibility to work from home 2–3 days per week. You’ll be joining a forward-thinking technology function within a global firm, supporting business-critical infrastructure used by 4000+ staff worldwide.
The salary range is £82,000 – £86,000, and you’ll be working alongside a highly capable team with access to cutting-edge tools and meaningful project work.
What’s In It for You?
• Genuine project ownership, this is a greenfield role with space to shape and lead
• Work with modern Azure technologies in a mature, enterprise setting
• Exposure to CI/CD, security, observability, and containerised environments
• Be a mentor and thought leader, influence others and grow professionally
• Enjoy a collaborative, diverse, and inclusive team culture
• A chance to work with global stakeholders in a sector that values innovation
Core Responsibilities & Technologies
• You’ll be responsible for building, automating and maintaining secure cloud environments, primarily in Azure, with some exposure to AWS.
You'll:
• Architect and deploy scalable infrastructure using Terraform and IaC
• Design and enhance CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Azure DevOps, Jenkins)
• Implement robust monitoring, logging and observability tools (Azure Monitor, SolarWinds)
• Work with DevOps and Security teams to enforce cloud governance and zero-trust models
• Stay close to the technology – supporting the business, guiding junior engineers, and troubleshooting high-level incidents when needed
Who We're Looking For
• This role suits someone with strong hands-on cloud engineering experience and a proactive mindset. You should be:
• Confident working with Azure (and ideally some AWS)
• A strong communicator – comfortable liaising with technical and non-technical teams
• Experienced with Terraform, CI/CD, and scripting tools
• Passionate about knowledge sharing and team development
• Naturally curious – you enjoy solving problems and spotting better ways of doing things
• Resilient and adaptable – with a security-first approach to everything you do
