Occupational Purpose and Context
Junior cloud engineers support cloud engineers in building, servicing, and maintaining cloud-based services and applications for a company.

They often implement and configure cloud-based infrastructure and software, maintain cloud-based services, create operating procedures, identify and correct problems, or create production and migration schedules. They provide support to the end user using various cloud platforms and provide solutions for end users having technical difficulties. Junior cloud engineers may also manage virtualized data centers, including servers, storage, backup and recovery, and networking.
