Description

Step into the realm of cloud engineering with our Azure Solutions Architect role, where you transform complex cloud environments into streamlined, cost-efficient operations. If orchestrating cloud solutions from business goals to measurable savings is your forte, and navigating a C-suite workshop to crafting an actionable roadmap in a day sounds like your groove, this is your calling.

Join Virtasant, a remote-first consultancy that specializes in delivering impactful Azure transformations. We marry hands-on architecture with strategic consulting, balancing design patterns and stakeholder engagement to ensure seamless integration and governance.

Your mission: craft technical architectures and cloud roadmaps that adhere to Azure and industry best practices while addressing real-world challenges. Develop cost optimization plans based on detailed usage data, identifying inefficiencies and proposing rightsizing and scheduling models. Design comprehensive solutions and migration strategies that outline dependencies, risks, and timelines, facilitating smooth transitions without guesswork.

Operate with high autonomy within a dedicated team of architects and FinOps experts who value precision, transparency, and client trust. Your success is reflected in well-executed strategies, seamless migrations, and optimized Azure expenditures that you can clearly articulate. If complex challenges energize you and you enjoy influencing senior stakeholders with accountability and impact, we invite you to apply.

What you will be doing

  • Develop strategic technical architectures and cloud roadmaps to guide clients in their Azure infrastructure decisions.
  • Create FinOps-centric cost optimization plans, focusing on rightsizing, budgeting, forecasting, and governance to enhance efficiency and reduce expenditure.
  • Design and implement comprehensive solutions and phased migration strategies for clients transitioning to or optimizing within Azure.
  • Conduct client workshops, presentations, and deliver proposals to align stakeholders, build trust, and secure project commitment.

Key responsibilities

  • Revamp client environments with scalable, secure, and cost-effective Azure cloud solutions that deliver measurable savings.
