If someone with a mechanical engineering BSc degree wants to have a job in cloud computing, would his mechanical engineering background benefit him in the high-tech filed ?

Since you would bring project management skills to the game, yes. I've worked in many tech fields over time and project management is something of a constant that I used in electronics, software, documentation and product design. It's doubtful you will write that much code at a company that sells cloud products. My encounters with cloud companies seems to find half the staff is in sales, with the rest in tech support and not so many in development. All were buying their cloud equipment from major vendors, not one created it from scatch.
