In this senior client-facing consulting position, you will lead infrastructure assessments and large-scale cloud migrations, design highly available landing zones and network topologies, automate provisioning through Infrastructure as Code, and advise stakeholders on platform resilience, performance, and cost optimisation.

Responsibilities include the following:

Assess existing on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments and design target-state infrastructure architectures across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.

Plan and execute end-to-end cloud migration programs, including server, storage, database, and virtual desktop workload transitions with minimal business disruption.

Design and configure enterprise network topologies including VPC/VNet architecture, hybrid connectivity (ExpressRoute, Direct Connect, site-to-site VPN), routing, load balancing, and DNS.

Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code deployments using Terraform, Bicep, ARM templates, and CI/CD pipelines to enable repeatable, auditable, and version-controlled provisioning.

Design and implement cloud landing zones, subscription and account structures, tagging standards, and governance guardrails aligned to the Well-Architected and Cloud Adoption Frameworks.

Architect high-availability, backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity solutions that meet agreed RTO and RPO targets across public, private, and hybrid platforms.

Configure and administer identity and directory services including Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, Group Policy, single sign-on, and conditional access integration.

Monitor infrastructure performance, availability, and capacity; conduct root-cause analysis on complex infrastructure incidents; and implement tuning and remediation activities.

Perform cloud consumption analysis and FinOps optimisation, including rightsizing, reserved capacity planning, and licence rationalisation, and report realised savings to stakeholders.

Prepare technical documentation including as-built designs, migration plans, runbooks, and effort estimates, and present architecture recommendations to client and executive stakeholders.
