Build the cloud strategy, not just another environment. If you’re tired of implementing someone else’s designs, or of architecture roles that stop at the slide deck, this one is different. A well-established organisation in Sydney has created a brand new, hands-on Cloud Architect role, with no predecessor and an opportunity to shape the cloud strategy.
You’ll design and build the Azure foundations, help shape the cloud roadmap with real influence at senior leadership level, and enable the infrastructure, security and applications teams to deliver on it.
Responsibilities include:
- Contributing to the definition and driving the cloud infrastructure strategy
- Designing and building Azure landing zones, governance and automation
- Leading the migration of legacy servers and file storage to Azure and SharePoint
- Creating the platform and building blocks for data to be stored, governed and secured properly
- Working with the security and applications teams on secure, consistent design patterns
- Engaging vendors and partners on project delivery
- Explaining technical decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Experience needed:
- Proven, hands‑on experience designing and delivering Azure architecture end‑to‑end
- Infrastructure as code (Bicep, Terraform or ARM) and CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or GitHub)
- A background with Microsoft 365 and Entra ID
- Good data governance and security experience, with exposure to frameworks such as the Essential Eight and ISO 27001
- Comfortable influencing senior stakeholders and mentoring others
- Microsoft certifications (AZ-305, AZ-400, AZ-500) highly regarded
- Exposure to Microsoft Fabric or a similar data platform is a bonus
