Job Description
Infrastructure Cloud Architect
\n
A leading law firm is looking for a senior Infrastructure Cloud Architect to help lead a major Azure-first hybrid infrastructure transformation.
\n
\n
This is a hands-on infrastructure architecture role, focused on Azure, networking, security, compute, storage, virtualization, resiliency, and hybrid infrastructure — not application architecture or DevOps. You’ll provide architectural direction while remaining close enough to the technology to design, build, implement, troubleshoot, and support solutions.
\n
\n
What You’ll Do
\n
- \n
- Design and implement Azure and hybrid-cloud infrastructure solutions
- Develop infrastructure standards, architecture patterns, roadmaps, and technical designs
- Work across Azure networking, VNets, routing, DNS, ExpressRoute, private endpoints, firewalls, load balancing, and segmentation
- Architect compute, storage, virtualization, security, identity, and resiliency solutions
- Support the law firm’s transition from legacy data centers toward Azure IaaS and new colocation environments
- Troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues and serve as a senior technical escalation point
- Develop architecture diagrams and Infrastructure as Code
- Partner with engineering, security, and infrastructure teams on large-scale initiatives

What We’re Looking For
\n
- \n
- 10+ years of infrastructure engineering, architecture, or enterprise technology experience
- Deep hands-on Microsoft Azure infrastructure experience
- Strong hybrid Azure/on-premises experience
- Solid networking and security fundamentals
- Experience with compute, storage, virtualization, identity, RBAC, and governance
- Infrastructure as Code experience
- Strong troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills
- Ability to communicate architectural decisions to technical and business leadership
- Someone who can still personally design, build, configure, implement, and troubleshoot infrastructure

The Hands-On Piece Matters
\n
This is not a role for an architect who has moved entirely into strategy or oversight. During the first year, the role will be approximately 60% architecture/strategy and 40% hands-on implementation, troubleshooting, and operational support.
\n
\n
We’re particularly interested in senior infrastructure engineers ready to move into architecture and infrastructure/cloud architects who have remained hands-on.
\n
\n
Target backgrounds include Senior/Lead/Principal Infrastructure Engineer, Azure Infrastructure Engineer, Infrastructure Architect, Azure Infrastructure Architect, and Hybrid Cloud Architect.

If this is sounding like a good fit, apply now!
