You will work closely with development and operations teams to modernize infrastructure, strengthen security posture, and support key migration efforts.

Key Responsibilities • Design, implement, and manage Azure infrastructure, including compute, network, and storage services. • Modernize the infrastructure repository by bringing unmanaged Azure resources into source control and refactoring IaC (primarily PowerShell). • Automate deployments and operational workflows using Infrastructure as code (IaC) tools and scripting. • Analyze and remediate Azure scan findings, focusing on critical and high‑priority issues to meet security and compliance standards. • Monitor, optimize, and troubleshoot cloud environments to ensure performance, reliability, and cost efficiency. • Collaborate with cross-functional teams and provide guidance on Azure best practices. • Configure CI/CD pipelines.

Qualifications • Bachelor’s degree required. • 8+ years of experience in cloud engineering, DevOps, or infrastructure roles. • Strong proficiency with Azure services, automation, and IaC (PowerShell, ARM, Terraform or Ansible a plus). • Experience with cloud security remediation, compliance, and governance. • Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills. • Experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment.

Preferred • Microsoft Azure certifications (Architect, Administrator, DevOps Engineer) or AWS certifications. • Experience with hybrid cloud, containers (Docker/Kubernetes), and advanced networking. • Gitlab CI/CD.
