Cloud & Hybrid Infrastructure Lead, Digital & Technology Services

About the role

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. This role requires someone who has optimized large commercial cloud footprints and designed cloud operating models - not just migrated workloads.

Responsibilities

• 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
• Advises 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
