Job description

Job Summary

As a Cloud & Infrastructure Architect, you will shape, govern and evolve Strawberry’s digital foundation across cloud and infrastructure platforms. You will lead the architectural direction for our multi‑cloud environment spanning GCP, AWS and Azure, while driving the transition away from remaining on‑premise environments. The role combines strategic leadership with hands‑on technical guidance, defining the target direction for our cloud providers and infrastructure landscape while working closely with product and technology teams to ensure scalable, secure and efficient solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Multi‑Cloud Governance: Define and execute a unified infrastructure strategy across GCP, Azure, and AWS, acting as the technical authority for in‑house GCP/AWS management while providing strategic oversight for Azure (managed by a CSP).
• Infrastructure Lifecycle: Lead the roadmap for on‑premise decommissioning and perform cost/benefit analyses to decide between asset retention and cloud migration.
• Product Partnership: Collaborate directly with product and tech teams to architect cloud‑native solutions, ensuring new initiatives are born in the cloud with best‑practice architecture.
• Drive DevFinOps & Automation: Implement infrastructure automation (IaC) and integrate financial accountability into the engineering culture to optimize cloud spend.
• Security & Compliance: Design secure cloud and infrastructure architectures across multi‑cloud environments, define and maintain security standards, hardening guidelines, and architectural principles, perform security architecture reviews and collaborate with the Tech Security team to ensure secure and compliant platforms.
• Vendor & Stakeholder Management: Manage high‑level relationships with external service providers (CSPs) and internal leadership to align infrastructure capabilities with business growth.

Mandates & Authority

• Strategic Execution: Authority to implement the overarching cloud and infrastructure roadmap across all platforms.
• Operational Standards: Mandate to establish and enforce best practices, naming conventions, security guardrails, and architectural patterns across the organization.
• Resource Optimization: Accountability for the performance, cost‑efficiency, and successful deployment of all cloud and residual on‑premise components.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in Cloud Architecture or senior infrastructure roles with experience from hybrid and multi‑cloud environments.
• Deep hands‑on experience with GCP and AWS; solid architectural knowledge of Azure (even if managed via a third party).
• Strong understanding of cloud security architecture, infrastructure hardening, IAM, governance, and secure‑by‑design principles across multi‑cloud environments, including familiarity with ISO 27001, NIST and GDPR.
• Proven track record of managing data center decommissioning and migrating legacy workloads to SaaS or cloud platforms.
• Strong understanding of cloud unit economics and FinOps, balancing operational excellence, cost efficiency and business value.
• Ability to translate complex technical debt and architectural concepts into business value for stakeholders and product owners.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, IT or a related technical field.

Benefits

• Real Impact – contribute directly to a dynamic transformation and make a tangible difference.
• Empowerment – work in a flat organization with trust, autonomy and the opportunity to influence decisions.
• Growth & Development – access professional development opportunities to enhance skills and advance career.
• Fun & Community – enjoy a vibrant work environment with social events and team‑building activities.
• Fantastic Perks – benefit from staff and friends & family discounts at our hotels.
• Flexible Work – hybrid model with three days of in‑person collaboration at our Oslo or Stockholm HQ.
• Job security – collective agreements, insurances, paid parental leave, holiday leave, wellness allowance, competitive salaries.
• Career Progression – opportunities across more than 200 hotels in the Nordics.
• Wellness & Wellness Benefits – including wellness allowance and attractive pension plans.
