About the role
- Requirement/Must
Responsibilities
- Design and deploy cloud architectures on Microsoft Azure that meet performance, security, availability, and cost-efficiency requirements for a diverse portfolio of enterprise and research applications.
- Architect and implement cloud networking, compute, storage, and identity constructs with security built in from the outset applying least-privilege principles, network segmentation, encryption, and defense-in-depth across every layer.
- Evaluate and recommend cloud services, architectural patterns, and infrastructure approaches; build evidence-based adoption cases that account for engineering capability, operational cost, and long-term platform sustainability.
- Implement and maintain infrastructure-as-code (IaC) frameworks using Terraform, Ansible, Bicep, ARM templates, or equivalent making infrastructure provisioning repeatable, auditable, and developer-friendly.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for cloud infrastructure and application deployments; ensure changes are tested, validated, and deployed safely with automated rollback capability.
- Drive automation of operational tasks patching, scaling, monitoring, alerting, and cost optimization reducing manual intervention and improving platform reliability and response time.
- Ensure cloud environments comply with security standards, regulatory requirements, and data governance policies; implement and maintain controls for identity management, secrets management, audit logging, and encryption at rest and in transit.
- Partner with Cybersecurity teams to align cloud platform security with enterprise threat models and applicable regulatory frameworks including GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, and SOX where relevant.
- Monitor cloud environments for performance, availability, and cost efficiency; proactively identify waste, right-size resources, and drive FinOps practices that deliver cloud value without unnecessary spend.
- Troubleshoot and resolve cloud infrastructure issues with urgency and precision; contribute to post-incident analysis and implement preventive improvements that reduce recurrence.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field or equivalent professional experience.
- 3+ years of hands-on cloud engineering experience in a production enterprise environment (Microsoft Azure required).
- Demonstrated proficiency with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Bicep, ARM templates, or equivalent) and version control (Git).
- Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Bash, or equivalent) for automation and tooling development.
- Strong understanding of cloud networking, virtualization, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud security principles.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices in a cloud-native context.
Nice to have
- Microsoft Azure certification strongly preferred Azure Solutions Architect Expert, Azure Administrator Associate, or Azure DevOps Engineer Expert.
- Experience with FinOps practices and cloud cost optimization at enterprise scale.
- Familiarity with monitoring and observability platforms (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, Azure Monitor, Application Insights, or equivalent).
- Experience with Kubernetes in production (Azure Kubernetes Service / AKS or self-managed) including cluster operations and workload management.
