Job description

Hybrid Cloud Cloud Engineer – Trondheim

Build the cloud infrastructure behind mission-critical organisations.

Are you an infrastructure specialist who understands that cloud isn't always public cloud?

Do you have hands‑on experience with private cloud, virtualisation, Software‑Defined Data Centres and automation — and want to work on complex environments where reliability, security and scalability really matter?

We’re looking for experienced Hybrid Cloud / Private Cloud Engineers to join a world‑class IT company and work with some of Norway’s leading private‑and public‑sector organisations.

You’ll help design, build, automate and operate modern private and hybrid cloud platforms in environments where security, availability and performance are critical.

We’re looking for:

• Minimum 3 years of hands‑on experience with one or more private cloud platforms, such as:
• VMware Cloud Foundation
• Microsoft Azure Local
• Oracle OCI
• Nutanix
• Strong technical understanding of virtualised infrastructure, including compute, storage and networking
• Experience with Software‑Defined Data Centre technologies
• Strong automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) capabilities
• Fluent Norwegian, both written and spoken
• Norwegian citizenship and the ability to obtain the required security clearance

Experience that would be valuable (but not essential):

• Hybrid cloud integration using Azure Arc
• Full‑stack open‑source cloud platforms such as OpenStack or Apache CloudStack
• Architecture and design of private and hybrid cloud platforms
• Air‑gapped private cloud environments in highly regulated environments
• Multi‑tenant and multi‑customer platforms
• Geo‑redundancy, high availability and disaster recovery
• Storage and backup technologies including HPE, Dell, NetApp, Commvault, Veeam or Rubrik
• Kubernetes in private cloud environments
• Private AI solutions and NVIDIA technologies
• Automation using Terraform or Ansible
• Relevant industry certifications

This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of traditional infrastructure, private cloud and modern cloud‑native technology.

You’ll work with experienced specialists and leading organisations on challenging technology environments where your expertise can have a real impact.

Our client is committed to training and professional development, supporting people as they build deeper technical expertise and progress their careers — whether that means becoming a specialist, architect, technical lead or moving into broader consulting and leadership roles.

They can provide exposure to some of the best private and public‑sector organisations in Norway, working on environments where security, resilience and operational excellence are essential.

This organisation believes a great career should be sustainable. That means taking employee wellbeing, flexibility and work/life balance seriously, alongside delivering outstanding technology for their customers.

Thank you for your interest in this opportunity. If your application is successful, we will contact you to discuss the position in more detail within 48 hours of receiving your CV. Please assume your application has been unsuccessful if you do not hear back from us within 48 hours.
