Infoplus Technologies UK Limited

We are seeking a hands‑on Cloud Solution Architect (AWS / Azure) to drive enterprise cloud adoption, platform engineering, and project incubation. This role requires a grounded, execution‑oriented professional who can seamlessly bridge the gap between strategic business goals and technical reality.

Operating as a trusted partner, you will spend 2 to 3 days per week embedded on‑site with our enterprise clients. In this role, you will not just propose architectures; you will actively build, prototype, and physically incubate them.

By combining practical, hands‑on engineering with out‑of‑the‑box thinking, you will play a critical role in identifying the right modern toolsets and fast‑tracking the AI Cloud adoption journey for our customers.

Key Responsibilities

• On-Site Migration & Platform Planning: Spend 2–3 days per week on‑site with clients mapping legacy workloads, architecting secure enterprise landing zones, and designing comprehensive migration strategies.
• Hands‑on Prototyping & Automation: Actively build, configure, and automate infrastructure components using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to incubate projects, moving them from architectural diagrams to live, provisioned environments.
• Cloud Modernization: Lead modernization initiatives, designing fully serverless or containerized (EKS/AKS) architectures, and implementing automated cost‑optimization strategies.
• AI Toolset Evaluation: Actively evaluate and identify modern, emerging AI‑driven tools that can optimize platform management, accelerate migration discovery, or automate repetitive infrastructure tasks.
• Mentorship & Enablement: Serve as a trusted advisor, creating comprehensive documentation and providing detailed guidance to help upskill and enable client engineering teams.

Technical Skill Profile

Cloud & Platform Engineering (Core Focus)

• Enterprise Cloud Architecture: Deep, certified expertise in AWS and/or Microsoft Azure.
• Platform & Landing Zones: Strong, demonstrable experience designing secure enterprise landing zones using Account Factory for Terraform (AFT) or similar multi‑account automation frameworks.
• Migration Strategies: Extensive track record planning and executing enterprise migrations for legacy systems (including on‑prem to cloud and Citrix-to-cloud transitions).
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Advanced capabilities with HashiCorp Terraform and AWS CloudFormation/Azure Resource Manager to automate complex cloud environments from scratch.
• Networking: Proficient in cloud‑native networking solutions, including multicast, VPCs, subnets, routing, and security group design.

Modernization & DevOps

• Containerization & Serverless: Hands‑on experience designing and building solutions with container orchestrators (e.g., EKS, AKS) and fully serverless architectures.
• Automation & Scripting: Strong capability in scripting (Python, Bash, or Go) to build custom automation, integrate cloud APIs, and manage infrastructure dynamically.
• Disaster Recovery (DR): Experience designing and implementing robust DR environments to ensure enterprise business continuity.

Cultural Fit Profile (The "Ideal" Persona)

• Humble Authority: Mature, reliable, and technically strong.
• Customer Empathy: A natural ability to build trust on‑site with enterprise clients, understanding their internal politics, legacy constraints, and technical goals.
• Continuous Learner: Possesses a genuine curiosity for emerging platform technologies and AI‑based infrastructure operations, with a proven ability to quickly learn and adapt.
• Risk‑Aware & Autonomous: Has a strong project delivery record, is comfortable navigating ambiguous environments, and can proactively identify platform and security risks before they become issues.
