We are digital builders born in the cloud and currently, we are looking for a Senior Azure Cloud Architect.

Joining Nordcloud is the chance of a lifetime to leave your mark on the European IT industry! We use an agile, cloud-native approach to empower clients to seize the full potential of the public cloud.

Your daily work: 

  • Participating in various customer projects, from implementing cloud foundations and platforms to transforming workloads into cloud native application
  • Pre-sales activity including assisting with writing customer proposal
  • Deep-diving into our customers’ challenges by giving workshops and designing recommendations to technical teams and stakeholders
  • You will become a trusted advisor for high-profile enterprises and jointly manage the customer relationship and roadmap with the Nordcloud account team
  • You will therefore have the opportunity to engage with our customers from the very start of the customer journey to the cloud and continue in your role on the customer projects until it’s finished
  • Act as technical thought leader in customer engagements and amongst your peers at Nordcloud

We favor critical/logical thinking, curiosity, and attention to detail over extensive but unstructured knowledge.

Your skills and attributes of success:

  • At least 3 years of experience working within the EU

  • Advanced knowledge and hands-on experience with Azure (other public clouds such as AWS and GCP are a plus)
  • Experience in leading complex large-scale projects
  • Experience with Linux/Windows
  • An understanding of on-premises technologies (like VM-ware, OpenStack, or Hyper-V)
  • An understanding of backend programming with languages (C#, Java, Go, or similar)
  • Container technologies (Kubernetes, ECS, GKE)
  • Azure DevOps Toolkit
  • Building CI/CD pipelines
  • Configuration management systems (e.g. Ansible, Chef, Puppet, or similar)
  • Experience with enterprise customers or big organizations
  • Fluent communication skills in Swedish and English
  • Experience in consultancy would be a plus

All in all, you should have a solid engineering/technical background/hands-on experience with conceptualizing, strategizing and architecting cloud solutions. As you will work directly with customers, social skills and a customer service attitude are a must.

If you don’t meet all of the desired criteria, but still fit most of the requirements, we encourage you to apply anyway. Let’s find out together if we are a good fit for each other!

What do we offer in return?
