Cloud Engineer Jobs
Software EngineeringCurrently tracking 15 open roles for this career path in Ireland.
Cloud engineering is heavily shaped by a single fact: Amazon has 21 of the 52 active roles — a direct consequence of AWS's massive data centre investment programme across Ireland. Dublin accounts for 37 positions overall, with Galway (4) adding a smaller cluster.
Amazon's cloud engineering positions cover Data Centre Engineering, Network Development Engineering, and Cloud Support Engineering for its EMEA infrastructure. These roles span the full stack from physical infrastructure design through to network automation and customer-facing cloud architecture — all operating at a scale that few other employers can match.
Beyond Amazon, the market diversifies. Fisher Investments has 6 cloud engineering positions supporting its European wealth management technology stack. AMCS Group in Limerick recruits 4 cloud engineers for its environmental services SaaS platform — a growing Irish company building waste management and recycling optimisation software in Azure. Google has 3 positions for cloud infrastructure and customer engineering roles. Version 1, an Irish-headquartered IT services company, recruits 3 cloud engineers for consulting engagements across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Cisco adds network-focused cloud engineering, PwC recruits for cloud advisory engagements, and SoSafe hires for its cybersecurity SaaS platform's cloud infrastructure.
What skills are required? AWS is the dominant platform given Amazon's hiring weight, but Azure and GCP skills are equally valued at other employers. Core competencies include Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi), container orchestration (Kubernetes, ECS), networking (VPCs, load balancers, DNS), and security (IAM, encryption, compliance frameworks). Cloud certifications — AWS Solutions Architect, Azure Administrator, GCP Professional Cloud Engineer — are expected at mid-level and above. The career path runs from Cloud Engineer and Cloud Support Engineer through Senior Cloud Engineer to Cloud Architect, Principal Engineer, and Head of Cloud Infrastructure — with compensation at the senior end reflecting the critical importance of cloud infrastructure to modern business operations.
