Role: Senior Azure Cloud Infrastructure/DevOps Engineer

Location: Office in Bedfordshire

Working Arrangements: Hybrid working policy of 2 days in the office per week

Salary: up to £100k plus great benefits, including enhanced pension and 35 hour working week

You’ve been looking for a great company that’s financially stable, with a lot of interesting work to do, with modern tech, that you can throw yourself into and use your skills to their fullest.

You want to be around people physically some of the week to collaborate and to feel a part of something bigger than yourself.

If this describes you, read on, this could be the one for you.

A great little company, of around 10 people, in Bedfordshire are building out a new engineering team and you could be a part of it. They are a Microsoft house, so their cloud infrastructure tech is strongly centered around Azure, and their services.

At a glance, here’s what you’ll need experience with:

  • Strong knowledge of Azure App Services, Azure Functions, Azure FrontDoor, Azure ADB2C, Azure SQL and Azure API Management

  • Experience of Azure Monitor, Log Analytics and Application Insights

  • Proficiency with Azure Backup and Site Recovering

  • Skills in Azure Cost Management and billing

  • Knowledge of Azure DevOps pipelines

    I am looking for someone who is the full package- not only a Cloud Infrastructure/ DevOps Engineer, skilled in the above technologies, who loves to create efficient, elegant, and well-documented technical solutions, but also who is a great person to be around- a real team player who is naturally curious, takes the initiative, and wants to pitch in wherever they can whilst maintaining and advocating for best practice and who adheres to the Well-Architected Framework.

    They are, as a company, about to undertake a huge migration project to bring their technical estate back in-house, from a 3rd party. This will span across all areas of the business and will be keeping everyone busy for a long while! Don’t worry though, once this is completed, there will be lots of other projects, products, and solutions to be made, so you’ll not be bored here.

    As you can imagine, big projects like this need short feedback loops and lots of collaboration, which is often easier to do when everyone is in the same place, so a hybrid working policy of 2 days per week in the office is there to facilitate that.

    This is great role for you to really use all your skills on some fab projects, in a fun environment with friendly, talented people. If you’re looking to make your mark at a company, shape how things are done, and have a voice – this is the place for you.

    If this sounds right up your street, get in touch now or apply for immediate consideration!

    We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background

In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore every dimension of negotiating a cloud job offer. Whether you’re an established Cloud Solutions Architect eyeing a role at a cutting-edge start-up or a mid‑senior DevOps engineer seeking a leadership position at a global corporation, you’ll find insights on how to evaluate, compare, and negotiate all elements—from salary and equity to perks like flexible working and training budgets.

Cloud Jobs in the Public Sector: Exploring Opportunities Across GDS, NHS, MOD, and More

Contract vs Permanent Cloud Jobs: Which Pays Better in 2025?

Cloud computing has become the cornerstone of modern business operations. From global enterprises migrating entire data centres to the cloud, to start‑ups building cloud‑native applications, the reliance on services such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and niche offerings (like IBM Cloud or Oracle Cloud) continues to rise sharply. As the adoption of cloud grows, so do the opportunities for professionals in the field—be it cloud architects, DevOps engineers, cloud security specialists, or site reliability engineers (SREs).

Each route offers a distinct mix of pay structure, job security, benefits, and career advancement possibilities. Making the right decision hinges on your personal priorities—whether that is maximising short‑term earning potential, achieving stable long‑term growth, or somewhere in between. This article breaks down the cloud job market in 2025, compares different forms of employment, and provides sample take‑home pay scenarios for three typical cloud roles. By exploring the pros and cons of each arrangement, you will be better equipped to decide which path aligns best with your career goals, financial needs, and lifestyle preferences.
