Job Description
About the Opportunity
Speria is looking for a hands-on Cloud Engineer to support customer-facing Microsoft Azure environments across EMEA. This role combines cloud infrastructure engineering, systems administration, production operations, deployment support, and direct customer interaction. You will help build new environments, keep live platforms healthy, troubleshoot customer-impacting issues, and improve reliability through monitoring, automation, documentation, and repeatable operating practices.
This is not a traditional help desk role or a purely architectural position. It is designed for an engineer who enjoys both creating infrastructure and owning what happens after it goes live.
Speria provides enterprise technology that helps the live animal protein industry use real-time information to improve operational insight and responsible production across the supply chain.
What You Will Do
- Design, deploy, configure, and support Microsoft Azure infrastructure for customer environments.
- Manage Azure networking, compute, storage, identity, monitoring, security, databases, and application-hosting components within the scope of the role.
- Support customer onboarding, environment provisioning, implementations, go-lives, production cutovers, and post-deployment stabilization.
- Monitor environment health, availability, performance, capacity, and cloud cost signals; identify and drive improvement opportunities.
- Troubleshoot infrastructure, connectivity, database, performance, and Azure platform issues affecting live customer environments.
- Review logs and monitoring data, identify root causes, resolve issues independently where possible, and escalate effectively when development or other specialists are needed.
- Automate repetitive operational and administrative work with PowerShell.
- Improve alerts, monitoring coverage, runbooks, standards, documentation, and repeatable operating procedures.
- Work directly with customer IT teams on Azure, networking, security, connectivity, deployment, and incident-related needs.
- Partner across Engineering, Infrastructure, Projects, Product, Development, and customer-facing teams.
- Participate in occasional after-hours or weekend work when required for approved customer go-lives or production cutovers.
