• Infrastructure as Code experience using Terraform and/or Bicep
• Experience designing, deploying and supporting Azure infrastructure
• Ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex cloud/infrastructure issues

What They’re Looking For

The key thing is someone with recent, practical experience of on-prem to Azure migrations who can come into an existing programme and contribute immediately.

The strongest candidates will have a good balance of Azure engineering, migration and IaC experience rather than being purely architecture-focused.
