The opportunity

This is a rapidly growing area, so you will have plenty of opportunity to spread your wings and develop your skillset to keep up with the ever-growing demands of the digital landscape. Most of your time will be spent embedded with our clients’ team and we’ll look to you to provide our clients with a unique business perspective on how they must continue to innovate and remain competitive with cloud technologies in this ever-changing industry.

As clients move into cloud adoption, we provide cloud architecture services to enable ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction; design and execute cloud adoption plans including application disposition (“6Rs”), prioritization and application migration; design and deploy cloud environments with secure guardrails to ensure compliancy for innovative cloud native development.

 

Lastly, as clients ramp up their cloud environments across the enterprise, we provide cloud optimization services to drive scale, optimal use of CSP services consumed by the applications and developers; deploy new cloud operation models; financial related services such as deploying new tagging for chargeback/show-back and reserved instances.
