Senior Cloud Engineer

Method Resourcing are supporting a high-quality, regulated financial services organisation in the hire of a Senior Cloud Engineer to support a major migration and modernisation programme.

The role:

The primary purpose of this role is to design, run, and continually enhance a cloud platform that is secure, dependable, and straightforward for teams to use.

• Post‑migration work focused on improving observability, resilience, disaster recovery, and platform scalability.
• Working closely with developers to design and operate reliable, cloud‑native solutions.

What we’re looking for:

• Experience across any major cloud provider acceptable (Azure preferred but not exclusive).
• Strong problem‑solving and delivery mindset.
• Strong IaC capability (Terraform or equivalent).
• Strong scripting or programming capability (Python, PowerShell, or similar).
• Infrastructure automation and IaC experience (Terraform highly relevant).
• Kubernetes experience essential across cloud: upgrades, troubleshooting, workload patterns etc (ideally Azure).
• Development background preferred.
• Ability to improve developer workflows via automation, templates, and documentation.
• Clear communication and collaboration across platform, security, and software teams.
