Cloud Engineer

Contract to end of Jan 2027 (Possibility of Extension) | Fortitude Valley, Queensland | Hybrid working

Lime Recruitment is currently working with a Queensland Government client to recruit an experienced Cloud Engineer. In this role, you will join the Cloud Services delivery team, focusing on hands-on implementation activities to deliver complex cloud infrastructure solutions across hybrid environments (70% Microsoft Azure, 30% AWS) within a fast-paced enterprise health setting.

Key Responsibilities:

• Execute hands-on deployment and support of enterprise cloud infrastructure across Microsoft Azure and AWS platforms.
• Deploy cloud components using Azure DevOps, YAML CI/CD pipelines, Git, Azure Bicep, and AWS CloudFormation templates.
• Manage and support cloud networking environments (VNET, VPC, ExpressRoute, DirectConnect, VPNs) and cloud security/identity features.
• Collaborate closely with project teams, vendors, and stakeholders to deliver solutions against tight timelines and shifting priorities.
• Proactively self-learn, adapt to, and implement new technologies and security policies introduced to the cloud environment.

About You:

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience deploying and supporting cloud infrastructure (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) across Azure and AWS.
• Solid background in Infrastructure as Code (Bicep, ARM, CloudFormation) and CI/CD pipelines via Azure DevOps—not an application developer, but an infrastructure specialist.
• Strong automation and scripting skills (PowerShell, Python, C#) along with deep knowledge of cloud identity (Entra ID/Azure AD, AWS IAM) and monitoring tools.
• Proven ability to thrive under pressure, manage competing priorities, and work both autonomously and collaboratively.
• Desirable: Experience with Azure App Services, APIM, Functions, Data Factory, Blob Storage, AWS S3, RDS, EC2, Lambda, Terraform, and enterprise health environments.
