Junior Solution Architect - Cloud-Native, IaaS & AI Infrastructure (m/f/d)

Job Description:

About Us & The Role

Join the Cloud Security & Automation team within Digital at Airbus Defence & Space! The Cloud Team builds, maintains, and evolves DCS (Digital Container Services) alongside our broader cloud-native and IaaS ecosystem, powering mission-critical workloads across the enterprise.

As a Junior Solution Architect, you will work at the intersection of enterprise physical infrastructure, Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), and cloud-native platforms. You will help design the low-level compute, storage, and networking foundations that support virtualized environments, modern containerized platforms, and high-density GPU-accelerated AI workloads.

This role offers a unique hybrid focus combining physical systems engineering, IaaS design, container networking, and ITIL process discipline-providing an exceptional launchpad for a career in cloud architecture .

Main Tasks & Responsibilities

• Infrastructure & Datacenter Capacity Design: Assist in architecting physical server topologies, bare-metal deployments, and IaaS layers for cloud-native and container platforms. Evaluate rack space, power delivery, heat dissipation, and cooling constraints, particularly for high-density GPU nodes.
  
• IaaS & Virtualization Scope: Help design and evaluate scalable IaaS architectures, ensuring seamless integration between virtualized infrastructure, bare-metal systems, and container platforms (OpenShift/Kubernetes).
  
• Networking & Storage Architecture: Help build high-throughput storage solutions (block, file, persistent container storage, and object/S3) and robust networking layers. Support the connection of on-premise infrastructure with sovereign and hybrid cloud environments.
  
• ITIL Process & Operational Governance
