Azure Senior Cloud Engineer @ Valtech

The Role

Valtech is looking for a Senior Cloud Engineer (Azure)

Valtech and Cloud Engineering

Valtech is a leading global agency in the business of digital transformation. We help our client transform their business into a true digital experience. In this mission, we design, build, and run large-scale global experience and commerce platforms in co-creation and co-operation with our clients. Experience and commerce platforms have drastically evolved over the last years in complex ecosystems that tie together multiple services of multiple vendors – also known as MACH or composable architecture. As a founding member of MACH Alliance, a group that educates enterprises on best-of-breed Microservices, APIs, Cloud, and Headless (MACH) technology, Valtech pioneers in how to properly build and manage those complex ecosystems. Site reliability engineering is at the core of our vision for how this modern-day distributed ecosystem should and can be managed.

A day in the life of a Senior Cloud Engineer (Azure)

As a Senior Cloud Engineer (Azure), you are part of a multidisciplinary project team working with software engineers, QA engineers, and frontend engineers on experience and commerce platforms. You will work with Infrastructure as Code (mostly Terraform), support teams in setting up their pipelines, helping them to deploy and scale their applications, design and ensure security on the cloud infrastructure of our client, set up recovery procedures, etc. You’ll work with containerized environments hosted either in Azure PaaS (Container Services, App Service, Azure functions) or on Kubernetes (AKS), although at times you will also work in an IaaS context with VMs.

On top of that, you help teams to grow and incorporate cloud techniques – these teams may contain cloud engineers, but could also consist of DevOps-minded software engineers. You participate in the European cloud team and actively contribute to growing the cloud engineers in that team. You help with advice, estimates, risk analysis, and proactively alert project management around cloud workstreams. You’re supporting cloud and solutions architects by assessing their solutions for feasibility and against the competencies and skills of the teams that need to execute them. You sometimes jump into projects to help them overcome a bump in the road and help colleagues to identify problems for what they are, and help them find the appropriate solution and to get the time they need to implement that solution.

• Flexibility, with remote and hybrid work options (country-dependent)
