  • Implement and optimize DevOps pipelines, CI/CD processes, and automated infrastructure provisioning.
  • Own and drive incident management, capacity planning, and performance optimization across Azure workloads.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams (Security, DevOps, Networking, Application Engineering) to align architecture and delivery.
  • Report to senior leadership and stakeholders with clear status updates, metrics, risks, and progress.

Required Skills & Qualifications

    • Azure Networking (VNETs, NSGs, Load Balancers, ExpressRoute, VPNs)
    • Azure Storage & Databases (Blob, Files, SQL, CosmosDB)
    • Azure Active Directory, RBAC, Policies, and Security Center
    • Monitoring and logging (Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Application Insights)
  • Strong experience with IaC tools (Terraform, Bicep, ARM), CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions), and scripting (PowerShell, Bash).
  • Solid understanding of cloud security, compliance (e.g., HIPAA, SOC2), cost governance, and disaster recovery.
  • Strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills to lead distributed teams and complex initiatives.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert or equivalent certifications.
  • Experience working in large-scale enterprise or multi-cloud environments.
