The Opportunity
In the first three months of the Bridewell Academy, you will undergo comprehensive onboarding, where you will meet your manager and assigned buddy, who will guide you through the initial stages of your journey. During this period, you will gain exposure to our Cloud Engineering team, allowing you to familiarise yourself with cloud architecture, modern engineering practices, and the Microsoft 365 security stack — including Microsoft Defender (XDR), Microsoft Sentinel, and Microsoft Purview — alongside equivalent capabilities across other hyper-scalers. You will complete foundational training, such as the Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900), Microsoft Certified: Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals (SC-900), and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner courses, and become acquainted with our learning management systems, setting a solid foundation for your professional development.
As you progress into the three to six-month mark, you will begin shadowing and contributing to client-facing cloud projects, where you'll apply your skills in real-world scenarios. This hands-on experience will be invaluable as you collaborate with senior consultants on deployments, configuration tasks, and technical documentation across Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, AWS, and GCP environments — with early exposure to security tooling such as Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Entra and Microsoft Sentinel.
Between six to eighteen months, you will continue working on client-facing projects both independently and as part of a squad, enhancing your practical experience in the field. During this time, you will focus on completing essential certifications such as:
Achieving these qualifications will further prepare you for your future role, culminating in your pathway to becoming academy certified. This structured progression ensures you are well-equipped with the knowledge and hands-on experience needed to thrive in a modern multi-cloud and cloud-security engineering career.
