Trystar’s team members are our most important asset, and we are looking for a highly skilled Cloud & Network Engineer to lead the design, implementation, standardization, and execution of our hybrid cloud infrastructure. This role is responsible for defining Azure architecture patterns, driving cloud-first adoption, and ensuring scalable, secure, and cost-effective platform operations.

The ideal candidate combines strong hands-on engineering capability with solid architectural judgement – able to design solutions, set standards, and execute at a high level.

Customer focus – We have relentless focus on our customers and their success.

Right with speed – We use good judgement, make thoughtful decisions quickly, and execute them with purpose and intensity.

Champion change – We know adaptation and improvement are requirements to survive and to thrive.

Enjoy the journey – We create an environment where our team feels appreciated and has fun along the way.
