Working with technologies such as Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker, and GitOps, you will automate infrastructure provisioning and streamline deployment processes. You will also develop robust CI/CD pipelines and implement advanced deployment strategies to minimize downtime and operational risks. Collaborating with a geographically distributed engineering team, you will contribute to infrastructure improvements and cloud operations. This role offers the opportunity to take ownership of critical technical initiatives in a dynamic, cloud-focused environment.

Accountabilities

You will be responsible for building and optimizing cloud infrastructure, automating operational processes, and maintaining reliable deployment environments across Azure and AWS.

• Design, deploy, and manage scalable cloud infrastructure and services within Microsoft Azure, including Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Private Link Services, Azure Networking, and Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server.
• Support the development and deployment of cloud environments primarily based on Azure and AWS.
• Implement and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solutions using Terraform to ensure consistent and reliable infrastructure provisioning.
• Establish and enforce best practices for cloud security, networking, governance, and cost optimization, including VNet, NSG, Firewall, and Load Balancer configurations.
• Manage tenant onboarding, infrastructure changes, and scripted automation based on predefined templates.
• Maintain containerization and orchestration technologies, including Docker and AKS, using Helm and GitOps workflows such as ArgoCD and GitHub Actions.
• Develop, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions.
• Implement advanced deployment strategies, including Blue/Green and Canary deployments, to reduce downtime and operational risks.
• Create and maintain automation scripts using Python, PowerShell, and Bash to streamline repetitive tasks and infrastructure provisioning.
• Collaborate with a geographically distributed team through established development processes, regular planning sessions, sync-ups, and sprints.
• Participate in a rotating on-call schedule to handle critical incidents and maintain high service availability.

Requirements

The ideal candidate combines strong cloud infrastructure expertise with hands-on experience in automation, infrastructure management, and modern DevOps practices.

• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Azure, with practical experience using AKS, Private Link Services, Entra ID, Managed Identities, and Private Endpoints.
• Good working knowledge of AWS and its core infrastructure components, including EC2, VPC, and IAM.
• Experience with Terraform, including developing and managing reusable modules for both Azure and AWS environments.
• Solid understanding of GitOps practices and deployment automation using GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and Helm Charts.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code, cloud automation scripting, and cloud-based deployment processes.
• Knowledge of containerization technologies and Kubernetes-based infrastructure management.
• Ability to independently manage infrastructure changes, troubleshoot operational issues, and contribute to reliable cloud environments.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively within a geographically distributed team.

Nice-to-have certifications:

• Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104).
• Microsoft Certified: Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ-400).
