At CGI, you’ll help shape secure, resilient cloud and infrastructure services that enable critical organisations to perform at their best. As an Azure Cloud & Infrastructure Engineer, you’ll take ownership of modernising and optimising hybrid technology environments, using automation and cloud-native approaches to deliver measurable improvements in security, performance and reliability. You’ll have the freedom to bring new ideas to complex challenges, working alongside an experienced and collaborative community that supports you in making an impact. From strengthening Azure environments to advancing infrastructure-as-code and DevOps practices, this is an opportunity to influence how services evolve while developing your expertise across modern cloud and infrastructure technologies.

CGI was recognised in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List 2025 and has been named a UK ‘Best Employer’ by the Financial Times. We offer a competitive salary, excellent pension, private healthcare, plus a share scheme (3.5% + 3.5% matching) which makes you a CGI Partner not just an employee. We are committed to inclusivity, building a genuinely diverse community of tech talent and inspiring everyone to pursue careers in our sector, including our Armed Forces, and are proud to hold a Gold Award in recognition of our support of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant. Join us and you’ll be part of an open, friendly community of experts. We’ll train and support you in taking your career wherever you want it to go.

Due to the secure nature of the programme, you will need to hold UK Security Clearance or be eligible to go through this clearance. There will be some limited occasional travel to Mansfield, but the role will be primarily performed remotely.

Candidate profile

In this role, you will take ownership of the configuration, management, optimisation and evolution of secure on-premises and Microsoft Azure infrastructure. You’ll help ensure compute, storage, backup and recovery services remain secure, available and performant while contributing ideas that improve how infrastructure is designed, deployed and operated.

You’ll collaborate with technical colleagues to strengthen hybrid infrastructure and champion cloud-native technologies, automation, DevOps and agile ways of working. Supported by CGI’s wider community of experts, you’ll have the opportunity to challenge established approaches, automate repetitive processes and deliver continuous improvements that benefit both users and the wider organisation.

• Design & Optimise – Enhance the architecture, performance and resilience of Azure and on-premises infrastructure.

• Secure & Protect – Harden Microsoft cloud environments and strengthen identity, access and security controls.

• Automate & Improve – Use Terraform and Ansible to increase infrastructure automation, consistency and efficiency.

• Manage & Support – Maintain compute, storage, backup, recovery and associated infrastructure services.

• Administer & Enhance – Support Microsoft 365, Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, Intune and related services.

• Monitor & Resolve – Use Microsoft Log Analytics and other tooling to identify issues and maintain service availability.

• Collaborate & Innovate – Work with technical peers to introduce new approaches, drive continuous improvement and deliver effective change.

Required qualifications to be successful in this role

You’ll bring strong, hands-on experience supporting Microsoft Azure and Windows-based infrastructure within complex environments. You should be comfortable taking ownership of technical challenges while working collaboratively to develop secure, automated and scalable solutions. Experience across the Microsoft cloud ecosystem and infrastructure automation will be particularly important.

• Strong experience with Microsoft Azure, including Azure Storage and Azure Security.

• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID, including Conditional Access, service principals, SSO integrations and user/group management.

• Experience administering Microsoft 365, including Exchange Online, SharePoint and Teams.

• Strong experience with Microsoft Intune.

• Experience with Microsoft Log Analytics and Microsoft Purview.

• Proven ability to secure and harden Microsoft cloud environments.

• Hands-on experience with Terraform and Ansible.

• Experience with VMware vSphere and SCCM.

• Strong knowledge of Windows/WinTel infrastructure and hybrid cloud environments.

• AWS knowledge would be advantageous.

• Ability to travel occasionally to Mansfield, with the role primarily performed remotely.
