Cheltenham - Hybrid working (2 days per week)
We're working with an established global organisation looking to add an experienced Azure Cloud Engineer to its technology team.
This is a hands-on engineering position for someone who enjoys getting under the bonnet of Azure environments: troubleshooting complex issues, improving existing infrastructure and making cloud services more secure, resilient and manageable.
We're particularly interested in people who started their careers in infrastructure, systems or technical support and have subsequently specialised in Microsoft Azure.
What you'll be doing
You'll work across an established Azure environment, taking responsibility for a mixture of operational engineering, technical improvement and cloud transformation.
Your work will include:
- Supporting and improving Azure infrastructure
- Troubleshooting complex cloud and connectivity issues
- Working across Azure networking, compute, storage and identity
- Strengthening security and governance
- Supporting migration and modernisation activity
- Improving monitoring, resilience, backup and recovery
- Identifying opportunities to improve performance and cloud expenditure
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll also help the organisation continue developing its use of Infrastructure as Code and automation, using technologies such as Terraform, Bicep and PowerShell.
This isn't a role focused purely on building pipelines or deploying infrastructure through code. We're looking for somebody with strong underlying infrastructure and cloud engineering fundamentals who is equally comfortable diagnosing an existing environment when something isn't working.
What we're looking for
You'll ideally bring strong commercial experience supporting Microsoft Azure in an enterprise environment, backed by solid infrastructure engineering knowledge.
We'd be particularly interested in experience across:
- Azure infrastructure and platform services
- Azure networking – VNets, routing, connectivity, firewalls or similar
- Entra ID / identity and access
- Cloud security and governance
- Troubleshooting and root-cause analysis
- Azure Monitor or equivalent monitoring tooling
- Backup, recovery and resilience
- Cloud migrations and modernisation
- PowerShell and automation
- Terraform and/or Bicep
- Cloud cost optimisation / FinOps
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
What's more important is that you're a genuine hands-on engineer who can investigate unfamiliar technology, work logically through complex problems and take ownership through to resolution. Azure certifications would be welcomed, as would experience working within an ITIL/service-management environment.
The opportunity
This is a good opportunity for an Azure engineer who wants more ownership than simply delivering predefined cloud projects.
You'll join an organisation investing in its cloud engineering capability and have the opportunity to influence how its Azure environment develops, while remaining close to the technology and continuing to engineer solutions yourself.
