We are looking for a full-time, remote Senior Cloud Engineer with strong hands‑on experience in cloud infrastructure and automation using Microsoft Azure to join our U.S. client. In this role, you will work with development teams to improve cloud infrastructure, deployment automation, infrastructure-as-code, and self‑service engineering capabilities.

The idóneo candidate is a strong technical generalist with a software engineering mindset who can take a desired outcome, understand an existing environment, research unfamiliar areas when necessary, evaluate options, and independently drive work from an incomplete starting point through completion.

You should be comfortable moving between Azure infrastructure, networking, identity, deployment tooling, GitHub Actions, infrastructure-as-code, scripting, and application teams depending on the problem being solved. Development teams will remain responsible for their applications and production environments, while this role focuses on making those teams more capable and self‑sufficient through better infrastructure, automation, tooling, and technical guidance.

Founded in 2003, our client transforms the traditional restaurant point‑of‑sale (POS) terminal into an integrated 360‑degree operational management system. Their solution increases brand loyalty through improved customer experiences, optimizes operations resulting in lower costs, and increases sales volumes through comprehensive analytics and employee performance insights. Over 7,000 locations use their technology today processing $5 Billion in daily sales.

Work with development teams to understand their applications, infrastructure requirements, and deployment models

Help teams solve difficult cloud, networking, identity,



and deployment issues without taking operational ownership away from the teams themselves

Support Azure tenant, subscription, and workload migrations in partnership with application teams

Help establish repeatable patterns for provisioning databases, application infrastructure, networking, DNS, identity, configuration, and related cloud resources

Improve infrastructure deployment through Octopus Deploy, including increased use of infrastructure‑as‑code and repeatable deployment processes

Work with Cloudflare, Terraform, and related tooling to improve DNS, routing, TLS, load balancing, and application connectivity patterns.

Ability to understand existing infrastructure and deployment environments rather than working only with greenfield systems

Ability to independently research unfamiliar technologies,



validate proposed approaches, and clearly communicate findings and recommendations

Ability to work from goals and technical direction without requiring detailed step‑by‑step implementation instructions

Strong troubleshooting and problem‑solving skills across cloud infrastructure, networking, identity, and deployment systems

Strong communication skills when working directly with software engineers and senior technical staff.

Desired Experience

Hands‑on Octopus Deploy experience

Experience with Azure Container Apps

Experience building reusable or self‑service infrastructure capabilities for development teams
