Descripción del empleo

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Azure DevOps Engineer with a strong software development background to engineer, automate and operate production-grade Azure environments. The role requires deep expertise in Azure infrastructure, Infrastructure as Code, AKS, networking, CI/CD and programming.

This is an engineering-focused DevOps role. The successful candidate must be able to code, build reusable automation and deploy applications and infrastructure in production environments, rather than only configure or support existing systems.

Key Responsibilities

- Design, deploy and maintain secure, scalable Azure infrastructure for production workloads.

- Build and manage Infrastructure as Code using Bicep or ARM templates.

- Own production deployment activities, release readiness, rollback planning and operational validation.

- Troubleshoot complex Azure infrastructure, application and deployment issues.

- Design and support Azure networking solutions including Virtual Networks, subnetting, Private Link, private endpoints and private DNS zones.

- Implement secure connectivity, identity, secrets management and network isolation patterns.

- Collaborate with application and security teams to ensure production environments meet enterprise standards.

- Deploy and operate containerized applications on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).

- Manage Kubernetes deployments, services, ingress, configuration, secrets, scaling, health probes and production troubleshooting.

- Improve reliability, observability and deployment consistency across AKS environments.

- Design, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or comparable tools.

- Automate infrastructure provisioning, application deployments, validation and operational tasks through code.

- Integrate security checks, testing, approvals and deployment controls into delivery pipelines.

Software Engineering & Collaboration

- Develop automation and platform utilities using Python or another programming language.

- Apply software engineering practices such as source control, code reviews, testing, modular design and documentation.

- Work closely with developers, architects, QA and cloud teams to support end-to-end delivery.
