[Hiring] Senior Cloud Engineer @JLL

Role Description

The EDP Cloud & DevOps team builds and runs the cloud infrastructure, deployment automation, and enterprise architecture standards that every data and platform team at JLL Technologies depends on. We're looking for an experienced Cloud engineer to own end-to-end design of cloud solutions, drive DevOps and CI/CD best practices, and raise the bar on governance and quality across our Azure and AWS environments.

Your mission is to make cloud infrastructure and DevOps practice a force multiplier for engineering, not a bottleneck. This is an opportunity to define how JLL Technologies builds, deploys, and governs cloud infrastructure at enterprise scale, and to see that standard adopted across multiple engineering teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Cloud Architecture & Solution Design
  • Act as cloud architect for the Data Platform team, designing end-to-end solutions across compute, networking, identity, storage, and messaging, not just deployment pipelines.
  • Drive cloud architecture decisions across Azure and AWS, ensuring solutions are secure, scalable, and cost-optimized.
  • Define enterprise architecture patterns and cloud best practices that scale across multiple domains and teams.
• Deployment Automation & CI/CD
  • Architect and automate deployment solutions across cloud services, including containerized workloads, serverless, and data/messaging services.
  • Standardize CI/CD best practices, pipeline design, branching strategy, automated testing, release gating, and rollback.
  • Lead infrastructure-as-code adoption (Terraform, Bicep, ARM, or CloudFormation) across Azure and AWS.
• Container Orchestration & Platform Engineering
  • Manage shared Kubernetes cluster architecture, including namespaces, multi-tenancy, RBAC, and workload isolation.
  • Understand cluster networking (CNI, network policies, service mesh) well enough to design for it and troubleshoot it.
  • Evaluate and introduce new tooling that improves automation, deployment speed, and reliability.
• Governance, Quality & Reliability
  • Establish observability standards, monitoring, logging, alerting, and tracing, across services and environments.
  • Define and enforce data and infrastructure governance practices so quality and compliance scale with the platform.
  • Lead incident response and post-mortems for infrastructure and deployment issues.
• Technical Leadership & Mentorship
  • Mentor engineers on the team in cloud architecture, DevOps practice, and troubleshooting.
  • Recommend and drive adoption of best practices across scrum teams within the domain.
  • Act as a technical escalation point for complex architecture, deployment, and infrastructure issues.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in Cloud Architecture, DevOps, SRE, or Cloud Infrastructure Engineering, including multiple large or complex projects.
• Hands-on experience designing end-to-end enterprise cloud solutions, not just deploying to existing architecture.
• Deep CI/CD expertise (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI).
• Broad Azure and/or AWS experience across compute, networking, identity, storage, and messaging.
• Proven Kubernetes experience, including shared or multi-tenant clusters.
• Strong infrastructure-as-code experience (Terraform, Bicep, ARM, or CloudFormation).
• Working knowledge of data governance and quality practices as they apply to cloud and infrastructure platforms.
• Strong cross-functional communication, particularly with data engineering and security teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with GitOps tooling (e.g., ArgoCD) for declarative, automated application deployment.
• Familiarity with DevSecOps practices and embedding security throughout the deployment lifecycle.
• Experience operating in a multi-cloud or hybrid (cloud + on-prem) network environment.
• Certifications such as Azure Solutions Architect, AWS Solutions Architect, or CKA.

Compensation

Estimated compensation for this position: 140,000.00 – 170,000.00 CAD per year. This range represents the estimated base salary and actual compensation may differ. Final base salary is determined by various considerations including but not limited to candidate qualifications, location, market conditions, and internal considerations.
