A role with a lot of ownership, in which you carry your own customer portfolio and drive towards value and growth.
Plenty of room for innovation, personal initiative, and working with the latest cloud and AI technology.
Hybrid working, with Bunnik as your home base and Friday as a collective office day.
An open and entrepreneurial culture in which we work together, learn from each other, and celebrate successes.
The role
CloudNation helps organizations get the most out of the cloud. We combine deep technical expertise with a pragmatic approach and work together with our customers to build scalable, secure, and future-proof solutions.
We believe in doing what works: no thick reports, but concrete solutions with visible impact. Our consultants are in the middle of execution, working closely with customers and continuously seeking ways to improve and innovate with cloud and AI.
What you'll do
You develop cloud strategies and translate business goals into concrete AWS solutions, based on a thorough analysis of the existing IT environment and the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
Together with customers, you investigate where AI truly adds value, from smart automation to generative AI with Amazon Bedrock.
You take on the role of a working foreman: you lead engineers and actively participate yourself in the implementation of cloud solutions.
You are responsible for delivery within scope, establish a Work Breakdown Structure, and together with the project manager, monitor progress, quality, and planning.
You coach and develop your team according to the 'To do, To participate, To do it yourself' principle.
You ensure that solutions are scalable, secure, and future-proof, and remain involved in optimization and further development after delivery.
This is a senior role with a clear Customer Lead overlay. In addition to a strong foundation as an AWS Cloud Consultant, you are the fixed point of contact for the customer and are responsible for the value we realize together, throughout the entire lifecycle.
You combine technical knowledge with leadership, bring teams and partners along, and translate cloud possibilities into concrete impact. At the same time, you build strong, long-term customer relationships and help both the customer and the team move one step further.
You are the fixed point of contact and escalation point for the customer.
You take ownership of the customer roadmap and drive towards business value.
You are responsible for the delivery outcomes and adjust course when results deviate from expectations.
During Continuous Delivery, you shape the governance model towards the customer together with the People & Process Officer.
You represent the customer's perspective internally and bring colleagues and partners into alignment.
You identify opportunities to further expand the collaboration.
We work according to our 6D Delivery Model. As Customer Lead, you maintain the common thread across all phases. The center of gravity of your delivery work lies here:
DISCOVER, DEFINE & DESIGN
You analyze IT environments, perform Well-Architected Reviews, and translate business goals into concrete AWS strategies, migration plans, roadmaps, and future-proof solutions.
DEVELOP & DEPLOY
As a working foreman, you lead engineers and actively participate in the implementation and rollout yourself. You monitor scope, progress, and quality, establish the Work Breakdown Structure, and take ownership of the delivery, in close coordination with the customer and project manager.
CONTINUOUS DELIVERY
You ensure a successful delivery and remain involved in optimization, innovation, and further development. In this phase, the Customer Lead role emerges most strongly: you safeguard customer value and, together with the People & Process Officer, provide direction to the governance.
About CloudNation
CloudNation, an IG&H company, helps organizations accelerate with cloud and AI. As an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner, we combine deep technical expertise with strategic insight to not only modernize organizations but also make them future-proof.
We believe that real impact arises when strategy and execution come together. That is why our consultants do not just advise, but also build and realize: from the initial strategy to implementation, optimization, and further development.
AI? We make it work.
We believe in AI beyond the hype. We build it, apply it at customers, and use it ourselves every single day.
Claude on AWS: we build secure AI gateways in the customer's AWS account, with EU-inference via Amazon Bedrock and an AI Center of Excellence around it.
An AI agent framework: we develop agentic AI that accelerates our delivery, for example with autonomous agents that deliver audit-ready Infrastructure-as-Code.
Production AI for customers: together with TOPdesk, we developed TicketBuddy, a GenAI service desk assistant.
AI in our DNA: from AI Readiness Scans for customers to internal hackathons and AI literacy, we apply what we advise ourselves.
Interested?
Do you want to combine AWS expertise with technical leadership and responsibility for long-term customer value? Then we would love to meet you.
