WRK digital are delighted to be partnered exclusively with a highly respected, UK‐based organisation, shortlisting for two Cloud Engineers on a permanent basis.

We are looking for Cloud Engineers to join a collaborative Cloud Operations team, supporting and managing the organisation’s Azure cloud platform. You will help maintain and enhance a large-scale cloud environment, ensuring stability, performance, and ongoing modernisation.

The ideal candidates will have experience with Azure cloud services, Kubernetes support, Terraform (IaC), and GitHub-based workflows. You will be involved in day‐to‐day operational duties such as proactive monitoring, incident troubleshooting, platform support and processing subscription requests — all within established change control processes.

This opportunity is perfect for individuals who enjoy automation, cloud infrastructure, and cross-team collaboration. While this isn’t an application management role, you will support teams with cloud components of their applications as needed.

Core Responsibilities include:

• Monitor and maintain Azure cloud infrastructure, ensuring platform uptime and performance
• Support Kubernetes deployments and troubleshoot cloud services as part of L2/L3 incident response
• Use Terraform to update and maintain Infrastructure as Code modules
• Participate in CI/CD tasks using GitHub Actions or similar tooling
• Contribute to continuous service improvement and cloud automation efforts
• Diagnose and resolve cloud infrastructure issues, escalating where required
• Maintain clear documentation for operational processes and configuration
• Support patching, backups, and disaster recovery activities
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement platform improvements

Minimum Requirements:

• 24/7 on-call L2/L3 support experience
• Experience with a major cloud platform (Azure preferred)
• Understanding of monitoring tools for troubleshooting cloud workloads
• Basic CI/CD knowledge (GitHub Actions or similar)
