Senior Cloud Architect (AWS)


Location: Our offices are in Central London, along with several of our customers. Travel to our customer sites is required, the frequency of which will vary from customer-to-customer. You need to be able to travel onsite to London up to 3 days per week, although onsite requirements will vary week-to-week and customer-to-customer from 0 to 3 days.

Salary: £120,000-£140,000

SC Clearance Requirements:

Due to working with several government bodies, SC clearance is required for all our customer facing teams. You do not need active SC clearance as we will undertake checks upon you joining, but you must be eligible to pass SC clearance. In future, DV clearance may be required, so the ability/willingness to pass DV clearance is advantageous but not essential.

You must be UK-based.


About Us


We are experts in building central cloud platforms, cloud risk mitigation and cloud operating models; providing thought leadership to central government and private enterprise organisations to help them unlock the true value of cloud.


Why you should join us


At Cloudscaler, you’ll be part of a consultancy at the forefront of cloud transformation, trusted by government, defence, and enterprise organisations to deliver complex AWS solutions that make a real national impact. From modernising public services to securing critical infrastructure, the work you do will matter far beyond technology.

We combine the agility of a startup with the credibility of an AWS Advanced Partner, creating a high-trust, high-performance culture where self-starters thrive and every voice is heard. You’ll work closely with senior leadership and cloud experts, shaping meaningful projects and driving innovation.

By joining us, you’ll accelerate your personal and professional development through hands-on experience with cutting-edge cloud solutions.
