Our vision is to reimagine the world of real estate, creating rewarding opportunities and amazing spaces where people can achieve their ambitions.

JLL Technologies is a specialized group within JLL. At JLL Technologies, our mission is to bring technological innovation to commercial real estate. We deliver unparalleled digital advisory, implementation, and services solutions to organizations globally. Our goal is to leverage technology to increase the value and liquidity of the world's buildings, while enhancing the productivity and happiness of those that occupy them.
JLL Technologies' Enterprise Data Platform (EDP) team is a central organization that owns JLL's data and cloud platform strategy. We partner with colleagues across JLL globally to build the infrastructure, tooling, and engineering practices that let every team ship data and software products reliably, securely, and at scale.
What this job involvesThe EDP Cloud & DevOps team builds and runs the cloud infrastructure, deployment automation, and enterprise architecture standards that every data and platform team at JLL Technologies depends on. We're looking for an experienced Cloud engineer to own end-to-end design of cloud solutions, drive DevOps and CI/CD best practices, and raise the bar on governance and quality across our Azure and AWS environments.
You'll bring 7+ years of hands-on cloud and DevOps experience, a track record of leading multiple large or complex infrastructure projects, and the judgment to set technical direction across scrum teams without needing to be told what "good" looks like.
What you'll get to doAs a Senior Cloud Engineer, you will have ownership over cloud architecture, deployment automation, and platform reliability across the Enterprise Data Platform. Your work directly serves the data engineering, platform, and application teams who build on top of the infrastructure you design, they depend on you for environments that are secure, scalable, and easy to ship into.
Your mission is to make cloud infrastructure and DevOps practice a force multiplier for engineering,
not a bottleneck. This is an opportunity to define how JLL Technologies builds, deploys, and governs cloud infrastructure at enterprise scale, and to see that standard adopted across multiple engineering teams.
Key responsibilitiesCloud Architecture & Solution Design
Act as cloud architect for the Data Platform team, designing end-to-end solutions across compute, networking, identity, storage, and messaging, not just deployment pipelines
Drive cloud architecture decisions across Azure and AWS, ensuring solutions are secure, scalable, and cost-optimized
Define enterprise architecture patterns and cloud best practices that scale across multiple domains and teams
Deployment Automation & CI/CD
Architect and automate deployment solutions across cloud services, including containerized workloads, serverless, and data/messaging services
Standardize CI/CD best practices , pipeline design, branching strategy, automated testing, release gating, and rollback
Lead infrastructure-as-code adoption (Terraform, Bicep, ARM, or CloudFormation) across Azure and AWS
Container Orchestration & Platform Engineering
Manage shared Kubernetes cluster architecture, including namespaces, multi-tenancy, RBAC, and workload isolation
Understand cluster networking (CNI, network policies, service mesh) well enough to design for it and troubleshoot it
Evaluate and introduce new tooling that improves automation, deployment speed, and reliability
Governance, Quality & Reliability
Establish observability standards, monitoring, logging, alerting, and tracing, across services and environments
Define and enforce data and infrastructure governance practices so quality and compliance scale with the platform
Lead incident response and post-mortems for infrastructure and deployment issues
Technical Leadership & Mentorship
Mentor engineers on the team in cloud architecture, DevOps practice, and troubleshooting
Recommend and drive adoption of best practices across scrum teams within the domain
Act as a technical escalation point for complex architecture, deployment, and infrastructure issues
Who you areYou thrive at the intersection of technical depth and cross-team influence — equally comfortable designing a disaster-recovery strategy and explaining why it matters to a room of stakeholders. You challenge the status quo when a process or architecture no longer scales, and you'd rather fix the root cause than patch around it. You take ownership of outcomes across team boundaries, and you enjoy raising the technical bar for the engineers around you.
Qualifications and skillsRequired Qualifications

Strong infrastructure-as-code experience (Terraform, Bicep, ARM, or CloudFormation)
Working knowledge of data governance and quality practices as they apply to cloud and infrastructure platforms
Strong cross-functional communication, particularly with data engineering and security teams
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with GitOps tooling (e.g., ArgoCD) for declarative, automated application deployment
Familiarity with DevSecOps practices and embedding security throughout the deployment lifecycle
Experience operating in a multi-cloud or hybrid (cloud + on-prem) network setting
