We get it. Finding your path in the IT world isn't easy. With countless job ads, shifting demands, and unclear expectations, making the decision to move forward can be difficult.
Let's make it simple. Read our story and take the next step in your career.
At Span, our Cloud and Infrastructure business unit brings together people who love technology and want to build solutions that work. Our goal isn't simply to introduce new technology, but to help customers make the right technical choices and turn them into solutions that are secure, resilient, manageable, and ready to evolve.
Our focus is on the Microsoft ecosystem, from Windows Server, Active Directory, SQL Server, virtualization, server and storage platforms, through hybrid infrastructure, all the way to modern, scalable, and secure Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365 environments.
While Microsoft technologies and Azure are at the core of much of our work, we value cloud and infrastructure experience across platforms and the engineering principles that transfer between them.
Whether you're just starting to specialize in cloud and infrastructure, already have experience with Microsoft or other cloud technologies, or come from an on-premises engineering background and want to broaden your skills, we have a place for you. What matters is the engineering foundation you bring and your willingness to apply it while developing deeper expertise in Microsoft technologies.
Depending on your experience, you'll take responsibility across different stages of customer projects, from hands-on engineering and solution design to technical decision-making and helping customers shape their next steps. You'll have the opportunity to turn ideas and technical decisions into solutions that work in real customer environments.
Find your place in one of our teams
You can apply your existing experience and develop new skills in one of our teams. Each has its own area of expertise, but we work closely together on projects, giving you opportunities to collaborate across technologies and expand your expertise over time.
