Job description

We are looking for an Azure Platform Engineer with a strong Platform Engineering mindset who can build, operate, and continuously improve scalable, secure, reliable, and cost-optimized cloud platforms. We are looking for someone who can build reusable infrastructure, improve cloud architecture, strengthen security, optimize Azure costs, automate platform operations, and enable development teams through self-service capabilities.

What You'll Work On:

• You will design and manage Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, including reusable and modular infrastructure components that can be used across multiple environments and teams.
• You will work with Microsoft Azure, AKS/Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, Azure DevOps, CI/CD, GitOps, and cloud-native infrastructure, while helping improve platform reliability, scalability, security, and developer productivity.
• You will also work on Azure networking and security, including VNets, NSGs, Private Endpoints, Application Gateway, Load Balancers, Azure Key Vault, RBAC, Azure Policy, and other Azure security and governance services.
• A key part of this role is Azure Cost Optimization / FinOps. We are looking for someone who has hands-on experience identifying cost drivers and implementing initiatives such as right-sizing, resource optimization, autoscaling, Azure Cost Management, Reservations/Savings Plans, or other cloud cost reduction strategies.
• You will also contribute to monitoring, observability, disaster recovery, high availability, production troubleshooting, and platform reliability using tools such as Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or similar technologies.

What We're Looking For:

• We are looking for candidates with 3 to 6 years of experience in DevOps, Cloud, or Platform Engineering, with strong hands-on experience in Microsoft Azure.
• Strong experience with Terraform, Azure DevOps, AKS/Kubernetes, Docker, Azure networking, cloud security, Infrastructure as Code, and CI/CD are important.
• Experience building reusable Terraform modules, platform automation, developer self-service capabilities, and internal platform components will be highly valued.
• Candidates should also have a good understanding of cloud architecture, scalability, high availability, disaster recovery, monitoring, security, and production troubleshooting.
• Experience with AWS or GCP is an added advantage.
• If you are someone who enjoys building and improving cloud platforms, not just managing CI/CD pipelines, we'd love to hear from you.

Who We're Looking For:

We're particularly interested in engineers who can demonstrate that they have:

• Built reusable Terraform infrastructure
• Managed production Azure/AKS environments
• Improved cloud architecture and reliability
• Implemented cloud security and governance
• Delivered measurable Azure cost savings
• Automated manual infrastructure processes
• Built self-service capabilities for development teams
