The Team

Alvarez & Marsal''s Corporate Performance Improvement practice is looking for a Cloud & Hybrid Infrastructure leader who bridges cloud strategy and hands-on execution for clients operating complex multi-cloud and hybrid environments.

• Assessing Workload classification, migration sequencing, and cloud-native refactoring (6Rs framework or equivalent)

• Designing for high elasticity, Horizontal and Vertical scaling as well as Dynamic Provisioning.

• Multi-tenancy design and enterprise cloud governance experience

• In depth knowledge of Commercial cloud cost models, licensing, and commitment-based pricing strategies (reserved instances, savings plans, committed-use agreements)

• Federal cloud environments preferred - experience with FedRAMP, IL certifications, and multi-classification cloud architectures is a strong advantage

• AI/ML workload placement strategy and cloud-native AI services - must demonstrate active use of AI tools in delivery; AI fluency is required for this role

• General understanding of cloud cost management and fin-ops.

How you will contribute

• Serve as senior technical advisor on cloud strategy and hybrid infrastructure engagements

• Lead workload rationalization assessments - classifying workloads for rehosting, replatforming, refactoring, or retirement

• Design hybrid/multi-cloud target architectures across classification levels and operating environments

• Develop cloud migration roadmaps with decommission gating to ensure on-premises capacity retires as workloads migrate

• Advise on cloud vendor strategy, including multi-vendor approaches, lock-in mitigation, and contract terms optimization

• Support practice development through internal training, content creation, and people development

Qualifications

• 8-12+ years of professional experience in cloud infrastructure leadership, with consulting or advisory delivery

• Demonstrated experience leading enterprise migration programs (500+ workloads)

• Deep understanding of security requirements in regulated environments (FedRAMP, IL certifications, HIPAA, SOC2)

• Federal cloud experience preferred - deep transformation experience in regulated industries can substitute

• Bachelor''s degree required; cloud certifications (AWS Solutions Architect Professional, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, GCP Professional Cloud Architect) strongly preferred

• Comfortable with travel up to 80%

• Full-time, contract, and project-based engagements available

What Distinguishes a Great Candidate

Has optimized large commercial cloud footprints - not just built them. Understands COTS application rationalization. Can design cloud operating models, not just cloud architectures. Brings AI-assisted architecture decision-making and workload placement analysis as standard practice.
