Director, Public & Private Cloud Engineering

A global semiconductor and engineering-led organisation is looking for a Director of Public & Private Cloud Engineering to lead an enterprise cloud platform organisation focused on connecting private and public cloud into one unified environment.

This is a highly strategic leadership role with a strong delivery focus, leading a global engineering organisation across cloud platform engineering, SRE, DevOps, and infrastructure functions.

The Role

Reporting into senior technology leadership, this person will oversee an organisation of 50-100 engineers and leaders across the US and India while driving the evolution of a connected cloud platform environment across both private and public cloud.

The organisation already has strong technical capability across cloud and infrastructure, but the current environment remains fragmented across teams and platforms. This role is focused on bringing those environments together, building alignment across engineering functions, and driving platform delivery across the business.

Key Responsibilities

* Lead a global cloud engineering organisation across platform engineering, SRE, DevOps, and infrastructure
* Drive strategy and delivery across both private and public cloud environments
* Connect siloed infrastructure and platform functions into a unified cloud platform
* Partner closely with senior technical leadership and architecture teams to deliver cloud initiatives
* Oversee Kubernetes, compute, storage, networking, GPU infrastructure, and cloud services across modern environments
* Improve reliability, scalability, automation, and operational efficiency across cloud platforms
* Build trust, autonomy, and strong engineering culture across distributed teams
* Drive modern infrastructure practices using open source tooling and infrastructure-as-code approaches

Required Experience

* 12+ years across cloud, infrastructure, platform engineering, or private cloud environments
* Experience leading managers and senior engineering leaders within enterprise organisations
* Strong experience across both private and public cloud environments
* Deep expertise across AWS plus additional public cloud exposure preferred
* Strong infrastructure automation and IaC experience using Terraform, Ansible, Python, or similar tooling
* Experience building or scaling internal infrastructure platforms or cloud engineering environments
* Strong understanding of networking, security, distributed systems, and infrastructure operations
* Proven ability to deliver technical strategy within complex engineering environments

Preferred Background

* Kubernetes or OpenShift platform leadership experience
* Experience within large enterprise or engineering-led organisations
* Exposure to AI/ML, GPU, or high-performance compute environments
* Strong open source tooling experience

This is a highly visible leadership opportunity within a global engineering environment offering significant ownership, long-term platform impact, and executive-level exposure.
