Job Description:

6-Month Contract | SC Clearance (Current, Lapsed or Eligible)

Hybrid working (2 days p/week onsite near Cardiff for the first month then 1 day onsite p/month thereafter) 

Rates are tight at £300 - £400 p/day (ideally closer to the £300 mark) but this has been determined as Outside IR35 if that helps (we can still pay through an umbrella of course if you prefer that) 

We're looking for an experienced Cloud Architect to join a major cloud transformation programme. The team has lost a few key permanent personel recently and they have several large Cloud projects starting.

You'll play a key role in designing and delivering secure, scalable cloud infrastructure, helping shape Azure environments using modern cloud engineering practices.

• Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF)
• Azure cloud architecture and infrastructure
• Infrastructure as Code using Terraform
• DevOps practices for deploying cloud infrastructure and application artefacts
• Azure DevOps or similar CI/CD tooling
• Azure is the primary cloud platform, although AWS exposure would be beneficial

• Current SC Clearance would be ideal, recently lapsed SC is fine, or you must be eligible and willing to undergo SC/MV clearance
• Experience working within secure or regulated environments
• Strong stakeholder communication skills

Contract Length: 6 months initially, with likely extensions
Location: Mainly remote with occasional travel to Cardiff
