About the role: We’re looking for a Senior Cloud Network Engineer who is genuinely hands on and thrives in complex, high stakes delivery. This role is central to a major enterprise wide cloud transformation, and we need someone who can roll up their sleeves, build solutions and drive progress end to end.
You’ll be responsible for designing, building and implementing cloud networking components across Azure, AWS and GCP, ensuring everything aligns with best practice and organisational standards. Working closely with Networking, Infrastructure, Cloud Services, Security and Application teams in the UK, you’ll lead the practical transition from legacy environments to cloud‑native networking — not just advising, but actively making it happen. This is a role for someone who delivers, solves problems in real time, and keeps the migration moving with minimal disruption, high availability and strong performance throughout the programme lifecycle.
Responsibilities: Support the design and implementation of AWS, Azure and GCP network solutions. Produce/contribute to detailed documentation such as implementation, migration and runbooks. Plan and execute migration strategies. Collaborate with other teams to ensure networking supports workload performance, scalability, and resilience. Troubleshoot complex hybrid network issues, including routing, latency, and connectivity challenges. Implement Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) to automate network provisioning and ensure consistency. Ensure compliance with governance, security, and operational best practices across all network deployments. Conduct testing, validation, and optimisation of network performance post-migration.
