Role Summary

We are seeking a Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps Engineer to support and administer enterprise cloud platforms hosted on Microsoft Azure. This is primarily a cloud administration and operations role, focused on operating, maintaining, monitoring, and supporting an existing cloud platform rather than designing or building new platform components. This includes Terraform-based infrastructure support, GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES) administration, CI/CD operations, cloud networking, identity management, monitoring, and release execution.

Key Responsibilities

• Administer Citadel Platform and AI Application Landing Zones, including Azure subscriptions, resource groups, networking, identity, RBAC, policies, Key Vault/secrets, monitoring and cost controls.
• Own Terraform-based Infrastructure as Code: maintain modules, providers, variables, state/backends, workspaces, plan/apply workflows, drift detection and remediation.
• Operate CI/CD pipelines on GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES), including workflows and self-hosted runners; support Azure DevOps integration where applicable.
• Ensure infrastructure and configuration changes are version-controlled and deployed through approved CI/CD processes rather than manual portal changes.
• Monitor platform health, availability, capacity, security alerts and integration failures; support incident triage, RCA inputs and recurring problem tracking.
• Execute controlled releases, deployment verification and rollback procedures in line with approved change-management processes.
• Troubleshoot network, identity, API, data-access and connectivity issues across Azure, GCP and on-premise dependencies.
• Maintain operational runbooks, deployment checklists, configuration/environment inventories and handover documentation; conduct knowledge transfer.

Must-Have Skills

• Minimum 3 years of hands-on Microsoft Azure administration and operations experience.
• Experience supporting and operating enterprise Azure environments.
• Strong hands-on experience with Terraform and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
• Experience with GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES), GitHub Actions, and self-hosted runners.
• Experience supporting and maintaining CI/CD pipelines.
• Strong understanding of Azure services, subscriptions, resource groups, and landing zones.
• Experience with Azure networking, including VNETs, DNS, routing, load balancers, and firewalls.
• Knowledge of IAM, RBAC, Policy Management, and Secrets Management.
• Experience with monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions.
• Scripting skills in PowerShell, Bash, or Python.
• Experience in release execution, deployment support, and rollback activities.
• Strong operational support and troubleshooting experience.

Good-to-Have Skills

• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, or OpenShift.
• Exposure to DevSecOps, security scanning, and policy-as-code.
• Experience with Azure Landing Zones and cloud governance frameworks.
• Knowledge of Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Prometheus, Grafana, or ELK/OpenSearch.
• Experience with Terraform Cloud/Enterprise.
• Familiarity with ServiceNow and ITSM processes.
• Experience working in regulated or enterprise environments.
• Knowledge of backup, disaster recovery, and high-availability solutions.

Required Experience & Skills

• 3-10 years hands-on Azure administration/operations experience in a production environment.
• Strong Azure Landing Zones, hub-spoke networking, Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Azure Policy, RBAC, Key Vault and cloud cost-control knowledge.
• Mandatory hands-on Terraform expertise: module design, state/backend management, plan/apply workflows and drift remediation.
• Strong GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES), GitHub Actions/workflows, self-hosted runners and pipeline-driven Terraform deployment experience.
• Experience with release management, rollback planning, monitoring, incident/problem management and operational documentation.
• Working knowledge of APIM/API gateways, REST APIs, event streaming and cross-cloud/on-premise connectivity.

Strongly preferred: Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104). Additional preferred certifications: Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ-400), HashiCorp Terraform Associate, GitHub Actions, Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500) or Identity and Access Administrator (SC-300).
