Description:
LOCATION:
VANCOUVER, BC
This role is part of a large, multi-year enterprise implementation focused on modernizing core platforms and migrating critical data from legacy environments into a secure, scalable cloud foundation. The program is establishing a cloud-native platform that supports data migration, integration services, APIs, event-driven workflows, and analytics, while enabling parallel operation and controlled transition from existing systems. The cloud environment built through this effort forms the technical backbone of the overall transformation.
Your future duties and responsibilities:
The Senior Cloud Engineer is responsible for ensuring the cloud platform can reliably receive, process, validate, and operate on large volumes of business-critical data. This includes designing landing zones, storage layers, migration pipelines, and foundational services that engineering teams depend on from day one. Decisions made in this role directly impact security, scalability, operational resilience, and delivery velocity. While initially assigned to this flagship program, the cloud patterns, migration approaches, and platform standards established are intended to become reusable assets across future transformation initiatives, positioning this role as a key contributor to long-term cloud and data modernization capabilities within the consulting practice.
Builds and operates the cloud foundation supporting data migration, integration, and application delivery. This role ensures that engineering teams have a secure, scalable, and fully automated cloud environment from project inception onward.
