Azure Cloud Engineer Engineer - 7-Month Contract - Amsterdam
Join the Cloud Enablement Team at our client, and help empower application teams in their journey to Azure. This is a unique opportunity for an Azure Cloud Engineer with strong hands-on expertise and a consultative mindset to play a dual role: both building and advising.
You'll act as a technical consultant, guiding internal teams through their cloud journey-from early-phase Cloud Adoption Assessments (5R's) to proof-of-concepts and full solution design. You will help define learning paths, co-create reference architectures and secure landing zones, and support the adoption of Azure-native solutions across the organization. By building and maintaining reusable Azure Verified Modules (AVMs), you'll enable scalable, self-service delivery of cloud patterns while also developing tooling for logging, monitoring, security, and automation. Your work will contribute to the development of platform services like managed container orchestration and help align the teams with the Microsoft Well-Architected Framework. You'll also support the broader enablement effort through training, coaching, community sessions, and internal events such as hackathons.
