Overview:
We are hiring an experienced Cloud Infrastructure Engineer to join a major infrastructure programme for a leading insurance client. You'll play a key role in delivering secure, automated cloud environments that support business-critical applications. This is a hands-on, delivery-oriented role requiring deep expertise in AWS, infrastructure automation, and enterprise application support. You will be stepping in to support continuity during a period of contractor transition.
Key Responsibilities:
* Translate high-level architecture into working AWS infrastructure environments
* Build environments based on HLDs, aligning with architectural standards and patterns
* Use Terraform and Ansible to implement infrastructure-as-code and automate application/service deployments
* Support promotion of releases across environments through to production
* Administer and maintain Snowflake and SQL Server from an infrastructure/operations perspective
* Ensure environments are built securely and aligned with DevOps and cloud best practices
* Collaborate with Architects, Security, and other engineering teams to ensure consistent and compliant infrastructure delivery
* Contribute to the installation and automation of applications/services
* Apply working knowledge of Windows Server and Active Directory to support hybrid environments
Required Skills & Experience:
* Strong hands-on experience with AWS cloud infrastructure (essential)
* Proven track record using Terraform and Ansible for IAC and automation
* Infrastructure administration of Snowflake and SQL Server
* Experience building and managing environments based on architectural designs
* Familiarity with secure, enterprise-grade environments (no direct production access, role separation, etc.)
* Working knowledge of Microsoft technologies, particularly Windows Server and Active Directory
* Ability to deliver under pressure with minimal oversight in a fully remote setup
* Background in insurance or financial services
* Exposure to middleware or application integration projects
* Understanding of front-end application delivery pipelines
Why Apply?
* Work remotely on a strategic cloud programme with a leading insurer
* High-impact contract with autonomy and technical influence
* Join a skilled, mature team at a critical phase of delivery
Note: This role is Inside IR35 and requires engagement via an approved umbrella company.
