Our culture celebrates independent thinkers and doers who positively impact our clients and shape our industry. The collaborative environment and engaging work - guided by A&M's core values of Integrity, Quality, Objectivity, Fun, Personal Reward, and Inclusive Diversity - are why our people love working at A&M.

The Team

Our DTS team provides following services to clients:

• Data & Applied Intelligence - Helping clients in harnessing the power of data and cutting-edge analytics to drive intelligent decision-making and transform businesses.
• Product and Innovation - Empowering clients to innovate, develop, and launch products that drives growth and competitive advantage.
• Technology M&A and Strategy - Assist clients to manage the technology aspects and business enablement of complex M&A, integrations and carve-outs.
• Technology Transformation - A&M helps clients create a scalable, cost-effective IT function that delivers the company's strategic vision and priorities.

How you will contribute

• Build and maintain the reusable infrastructure toolkit and standard components that allow each new application to be provisioned rather than rebuilt from scratch.
• Provision and operate cloud environments using approved patterns for landing zones, subscription or account topology, policy guardrails and tagging standards.
• Own identity, network and secrets management, including managed identity, private networking, certificate and key management, and least-privilege access across environments.
• Maintain parity across development, test and production environments so successful testing remains meaningful through promotion.
• Own operational FinOps, including cost visibility, allocation and tagging, right-sizing, commitment planning and continuous run-cost management across providers.
• Keep the toolkit portable by using Terraform as the common layer and cloud-native tooling only where a native capability provides a clear advantage.
• Support release and rollback activities with the DevOps function, and act as the third-line escalation point for infrastructure incidents.
• Contribute to the standards set by the Deployment Architect and to the reusable capability library inherited by the wider practice.

Qualifications

• 8+ years in cloud infrastructure or platform engineering, building and operating production environments as code
• Strong infrastructure-as-code capability at reusable-module standard rather than one-off scripting; Terraform is essential, with Bicep, ARM or CloudFormation experience.
• Hands-on experience building cloud landing zones, including policy, identity and network design, on at least one major cloud, with working knowledge of a second.
• Experience with Kubernetes or managed container services, including autoscaling and workload right-sizing.
• Production experience with managed data services, including relational databases, caching layers and storage lifecycle management.
• Practical cloud cost-management capability: interpreting bills, attributing spend and reducing cost without degrading service.
• CI/CD knowledge sufficient to build, operate and troubleshoot deployment pipelines.
• Comfort with direct accountability for production environments on which clients depend.
• Multi-cloud delivery for external clients, particularly where the client owns the tenancy.
• Data-residency and multi-region architecture experience.
• Disaster-recovery design and experience executing tested recovery procedures.
• Exposure to deploying AI or machine-learning workloads, including GPU provisioning
