Cloud and Infrastructure Recruitment
Placing the cloud and infrastructure specialists who design, build, and run the technology environments Irish businesses depend on.
What These Roles Mean for Irish Business
Cloud has moved from a future consideration to a daily operational reality for most Irish businesses. Whether your organisation runs entirely in the cloud, operates a hybrid environment, or is managing a complex migration, you need people who genuinely understand what they are doing.
The demand for experienced cloud and infrastructure talent in Ireland consistently outstrips supply. The people who can architect, build, and manage modern technology environments at the right level of expertise are highly sought after and they have options.
Finding the right person for your specific environment, your team, and your growth plans takes more than a keyword search. It takes a recruiter who understands the technology and knows the Irish market.
What We Do
We place cloud and infrastructure professionals across Irish businesses, from companies running their first cloud migration to organisations managing extensive hybrid environments across multiple platforms
We work across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, as well as hybrid environments and infrastructure hosted in your own data centres. We place technical specialists and technical leaders.
We focus on candidates who combine deep practical capability with the ability to work within a broader business context with the ability to work within a broader business context. The best cloud and infrastructure professionals in Ireland are technically excellent and commercially aware.

How We Work
We take time to understand your technology environment before we go to market. A cloud engineer for a startup running entirely on AWS is a very different hire to a cloud architect for a hybrid enterprise environment. Getting that specificity right matters.
We look for people who are genuinely skilled, not just certified. Certifications are useful but we look beyond them to actual experience, real project delivery, and the ability to work effectively in your specific context.
We are honest about what is available in the Irish market at different salary levels and we provide guidance on what is realistic.

This depends on the scale and complexity of the migration. For a significant cloud migration programme, a Cloud Architect to design the approach and a Project Manager to lead the delivery are usually the priority hires.
For smaller, more focused migrations, a senior Cloud Engineer with migration experience may be enough. We help clients think through the right sequence.
Our deepest network is in Azure, which is the platform we most often see across Irish enterprise environments. We also have strong reach across AWS and Google Cloud Platform, as well as hybrid infrastructure environments. We will tell you honestly if your specific requirements sit outside our current network depth.
Yes. DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering are established disciplines in the Irish market and we place regularly into these roles. We look for people who genuinely understand the cultural and operational aspects of DevOps, not just the tooling.
