WHO ARE WE?

Cloud Academy is a hyper-growth upskilling and reskilling SaaS company, focused on enabling enterprise customers to have full transparency and control over their tech workforce skills readiness. In a rapidly changing cloud technical landscape where there is an increasing tech skills gap in the market, combined with the difficulty organizations are facing to retain tech talent and the demands for numerous technical certifications, companies need the ability to manage these skills at scale more than ever. We help over 1000 customers visualize, assess, transform and measure their teams’ tech skills readiness through a unique Skills Intelligence Platform, powered by world class cloud training content. Companies like Warner Media, Deloitte, JP Morgan Chase and Walmart trust Cloud Academy with their technical cloud skills readiness at scale, so they can achieve their cloud business goals.

We are a global team, with colleagues in over 14 countries worldwide. We are a diverse team that is innovative, collaborative, pragmatic and passionate about making an impact. We thrive on a common vision, we obsess about our customers and learners, and we take pride in the quality of our work. Most importantly, we know that individually we are only as good as our teams are, and we always have each others’ backs.

We are seeking driven, highly competent, and creative team players to join us on the next phase of our growth story, as we scale our winning products to help even more customers and learners.

This position must also work independently on projects, from conception to completion, and be able to work under pressure at times, handling various activities and confidential matters with discretion. The individual will be able to exercise good judgment in various situations, with strong written and verbal communication, information technology management, vendor management, organizational skills, and the ability to maintain a realistic balance among multiple priorities. This position must maintain current technical skills, excellent client service, and a professional demeanor. You should have a conceptual knowledge of AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platforms and a limitless desire to learn more about technology.

This position reports directly to our Customer Support Manager and works closely with our US-based enterprise Customer Success team, our Swiss-based product development team, and our global team of training content creators.
