Focus Infotech is seeking a seasoned Cloud Engineer with strong expertise in Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to support large-scale cloud transformation initiatives. This role is critical to successfully migrating enterprise workloads from on‑premise environments to secure, scalable cloud platforms.

As a Cloud Engineer, you will be part of a high-impact project team delivering end-to-end cloud migration and implementation services for enterprise customers in Abu Dhabi. You will take ownership of VM and workload migration planning, cloud deployment, and post-migration optimization across Azure and OCI environments. The role requires close collaboration with infrastructure, security, and application teams to ensure seamless delivery.

This position is ideal for a cloud professional who thrives in complex environments and enjoys hands‑on implementation work with modern cloud platforms.

• Plan and execute cloud migration projects from on‑premise environments to Microsoft Azure and OCI
• Design and lead VM migration strategies, deployment, and cutover activities
• Support workload migration, validation, and optimization in cloud environments
• Deploy, configure, and manage Azure and OCI cloud infrastructure components
• Monitor performance and recommend improvements for cost, security, and efficiency
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth delivery and minimal business disruption

• 10+ years of overall IT experience with 4–5 years in cloud engineering or cloud migration roles
• Strong hands‑on expertise in Microsoft Azure (primary) and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
• Proven experience in on‑premise to cloud migration and transformation projects
• Solid background in cloud deployment, configuration, and implementation best practices
• Azure and/or OCI certifications (preferred or mandatory depending on certification level)
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and communication skills

• Experience with enterprise‑scale or government cloud projects
• Exposure to hybrid cloud or multi‑cloud architectures
• Familiarity with automation or infrastructure‑as‑code tools
• Experience working in regulated or security‑sensitive environments

To improve your chances, clearly outline specific migration projects you have delivered—highlighting Azure and OCI services used, workload scale, and how you minimized downtime or optimized performance post‑migration.
