Cloud Architect

Cloud is not the goal. People are.

Cloud is rarely the starting point. It’s a response to growth, increasing complexity and the need for resilience. Organizations don’t move to the cloud for the sake of technology. They do it because their ambitions have outgrown their current foundations. To enable their people to work smarter and faster. And that’s where you come in.

As a Cloud Architect at Yuma, you work on impactful projects for leading clients in the Benelux, often close to home. you design secure, scalable cloud environments on AWS or Azure, but your real impact goes far beyond infrastructure.

In your role, you help organizations take meaningful steps toward their digital future. You don’t push technology for technology’s sake. You listen. You ask the right questions. You work closely with developers, operations teams and business stakeholders, not as a distant expert, but as a partner. Someone who understands both technology and the people who rely on it every day.

What you’ll do

Organizations that are ready to move to the cloud — whether on Azure or AWS — turn to Yuma when they need more than a technical migration. They need a foundation that is secure, flexible and built to last. You’ll help clients not only with what should be built, but how it fits the organisation, its people and its way of working. You help clients understand the real value of the cloud: making complexity manageable for other.

You’ll:

• Design future-proof cloud architectures on Azure or AWS

• Translate business needs into technical solutions that make sense

• Guide teams during implementation and decision-making

• Think proactively about security, compliance and long-term scalability

Who you are

You are not only strong in technology: you understand the business context behind it.

You can step into the world of different stakeholders and tailor your approach accordingly. You don’t need to be the ultimate specialist in every domain; you rely on the strength of your colleagues when needed. That’s how we work at Yuma: together.
