The Opportunity

Auxilion is seeking an experienced Senior Azure Cloud Infrastructure Consultant to join our Cloud Services team on an initial six-month contract, with potential for extension.

This is an opportunity to work on enterprise-scale Microsoft Azure cloud transformation and infrastructure projects, supporting some of Ireland's leading organisations.

You'll play a key role in designing and delivering complex Azure infrastructure solutions, working directly with enterprise customers across cloud migrations, Azure Landing Zones, networking, infrastructure modernisation and automation.

We're looking for a technically strong Azure specialist who enjoys getting hands-on with solution design and implementation, rather than operating purely in an advisory or architecture governance capacity.

If you have a strong background in enterprise Azure environments, infrastructure-as-code and cloud migration, we'd be keen to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement enterprise Azure infrastructure, including Azure Landing Zones and cloud foundations.
• Lead and deliver complex Azure migrations, transitioning workloads from on-premises and Legacy environments into Microsoft Azure.
• Design and implement Azure networking architectures, including VNets, subnets, NSGs, Azure Firewall, VPNs, ExpressRoute and private connectivity.
• Establish and implement Azure governance frameworks covering management groups, subscriptions, RBAC and Azure Policy.
• Develop and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC), particularly using Terraform, including reusable modules and automation.
• Work directly with enterprise customers to understand requirements, conduct technical discovery and develop cloud infrastructure solutions.
• Produce technical architecture designs, implementation documentation and operational handover materials.
• Troubleshoot complex infrastructure challenges and provide technical leadership throughout project delivery.
• Collaborate with cloud, infrastructure, security and application teams to deliver successful project outcomes.

Essential Experience

• Strong commercial experience designing, building and implementing Microsoft Azure infrastructure within enterprise environments.
• Proven experience delivering Azure Landing Zones and enterprise cloud foundations.
• Demonstrable experience leading or contributing to complex Azure migrations and infrastructure transformation projects.
• Strong hands-on Azure networking experience, including connectivity, security and hybrid cloud environments.
• Practical Infrastructure as Code experience, particularly Terraform, including building and maintaining reusable modules.
• Good understanding of Azure governance, management groups, subscriptions, RBAC and Azure Policy.
• Experience working directly with enterprise customers in a consulting, professional services or project delivery environment.
• Ability to take ownership of technical design and hands-on implementation.

Desirable Experience

• Microsoft Azure certifications such as AZ-104, AZ-305 or AZ-700.
• Experience with Bicep, ARM templates, PowerShell and Azure CLI.
• Experience with Azure DevOps and CI/CD automation.
• Knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID, Defender for Cloud and Azure security best practices.
• Experience with hybrid cloud architecture and datacentre migrations.
• Experience developing enterprise-scale automation frameworks and reusable infrastructure modules.

Additional Requirements

• Full, unrestricted working rights in Ireland. Sponsorship is not available.
• Availability to work onsite in Dublin at least two days per week, including occasional attendance at customer sites.
