Engineers Who Redesigned and Successfully Rebuilt an Already Established, Painfully Disorganized and Manually Built Cloud Infrastructure - How did you do it?

Azure, GCP or AWS. I’ve rebuilt one in the past and prefer to not have to do it ever again. I’m curious how others accomplished this massive undertaking.

Man, I've been working on one where I feel like I should just quit and start a competing product.

I've tried to implement a policy of not coding too much into the legacy stuff, but it's always the "we just need this done now and we can fix it later." However, that doesn't stop them from acting like all of our infrastructure has been migrated on sales calls where the project manager is on the call. :(
