Senior Azure Cloud Engineer | £90 000 - £95 000 | 1 day per week - London

We're looking for a Senior Azure Cloud Engineer to take technical ownership of an organisation's Azure environment.

This is not a purely architectural position. You'll combine Azure design and technical direction with hands‑on engineering, helping develop and improve the platform while reducing reliance on third‑party expertise.

You'll own areas including Azure architecture and Landing Zones, networking, governance, security, identity, Infrastructure as Code, monitoring, resilience and cost optimisation.

• Azure Landing Zones and governance
• Bicep / Infrastructure as Code
• Azure networking – VNets, Private Endpoints, DNS, NSGs and firewalls
• Entra ID / RBAC / managed identities
• Azure Policy, Defender for Cloud and Key Vault
• Azure cost management and optimisation
• PowerShell / automation
• Production Azure troubleshooting and support

You'll act as the senior Azure SME, helping establish technical standards, review designs and guide other engineers while remaining hands‑on with the platform.
