This is a unique opportunity to own the end-to-end solutioning-from initial assessment to high-level design and hands-on performance tuning.
The Role
As the Technical Lead for a team of 5+ engineers, you will drive the strategy and delivery of Azure Landing Zones and complex workload migrations. You'll be the subject matter expert for:
Cloud Strategy: Designing HLD/LLD, BoM pricing, and architectural roadmaps.
Migration Excellence: Leading On-prem to Cloud transitions using Azure Migrate.
Linux Mastery: Deep-dive troubleshooting of networking, clusters, and kernel tuning (RHEL/CentOS focus).
Security & Governance: Managing Azure Key Vault, IAM, and high-security UNIX environments.
What You'll Bring
Experience: 12+ years in IT with 5+ years dedicated to Azure (IaaS/PaaS, Networking, Storage).
Linux Expertise: Strong hands-on skills in shell scripting, DNS, Postfix, and performance tuning (Varnish/HAProxy).
Leadership: Proven ability to govern technical teams and manage senior stakeholders.
Clearance: Active SC Clearance is mandatory.
Certifications (Bonus): AZ-305, AZ-104, RHCE, or RHCA.
The Setup
Location: London, UK (Hybrid: 2 days per week in-office).
Duration: 6 Months + Extension.
Compliance: Inside IR35.
Why Apply?
Join a project where you aren't just following a blueprint-you're drawing it. If you thrive in complex environments and enjoy mentoring talented engineers while staying "hands-on," we want to hear from you.
