Cloud Platform Engineer

Project Overview

Our client is seeking a Cloud Engineer I (contract) to support a critical integration initiative, a transformative deal that nearly doubles the organization's size.
This role will play a key part in migrating Azure applications from the Berry tenant to the new tenant. Due to differences in tenant IDs, application IDs, and user configurations, there is no standardized Microsoft migration path, making this a highly hands-on and technically complex effort.
The primary objective is to:

• Rebuild and migrate Azure applications into the environment
• Replicate existing permissions and configurations
• Partner with the security team to ensure smooth cutover and troubleshoot issues during transition

This is a high-impact, execution-focused role where the consultant will act as an extension of the internal Cloud team, providing "smart hands" and technical expertise-not project management leadership. Strong internal support will be provided for escalations and complex challenges.
There is also a strong possibility of extension and involvement in additional integration projects.

Engagement Details

• Contract Length: 3 months (with potential extension)
• Employment Type:
  
  W2 candidates only
• Potential for future conversion (not guaranteed)
• Collaborative team environment (many current team members are former consultants)
