Job description

Azure DevOps Engineer / Site Reliability Engineer (with Development Experience)

We are seeking an Azure DevOps Engineer with strong Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) experience and a solid background in software development. This role blends cloud automation, reliability engineering, CI/CD excellence, and hands‑on coding to ensure scalable, secure, and highly available systems across Azure environments.

Locations: Beaverton, OR Hybrid OR REMOTE

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain Azure DevOps pipelines (YAML-based CI/CD) for application and infrastructure deployments.
• Implement SRE best practices including observability, incident response, postmortems, error budgets, and service-level objectives (SLOs).
• Develop automation tools, scripts, and services using C#, Python, PowerShell, or similar languages.
• Build and maintain IaC using Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates.
• Manage and optimize Azure resources including AKS, App Services, Functions, Storage, Key Vault, API Management, and Azure SQL.
• Implement monitoring and alerting using Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Log Analytics, and Grafana/Prometheus (if applicable).
• Improve system reliability through performance tuning, capacity planning, chaos engineering, and resilience testing.
• Collaborate with development teams to ensure applications are designed for reliability, scalability, and cloud‑native operation.
• Support containerization and orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes (AKS).
• Drive continuous improvement across deployment processes, release automation, and cloud governance.
• Participate in on-call rotations and lead incident response efforts when needed.
• Must be an open and apt communicator.
• Must adapt easily to being embedded in a fast‑paced development team

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years in Azure DevOps, SRE, or cloud engineering roles.
• Strong development experience in C#, Python, or PowerShell (must be able to build tools, not just scripts).
• Hands‑on experience with Azure DevOps Repos, Pipelines, Artifacts, and Boards.
• Deep knowledge of Azure services, cloud architecture, and distributed systems.
• Strong experience with Kubernetes (AKS), containerization, and microservices.
• Proficiency with Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates for IaC.
• Experience implementing monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting frameworks.
• Solid understanding of SRE principles, SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and reliability metrics.
• Experience with Git, branching strategies, and DevOps best practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Azure Landing Zones, cloud governance, and enterprise‑scale architecture.
• Familiarity with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or other CI/CD tools.
• Experience with chaos engineering tools (Gremlin, Chaos Mesh).
• Background supporting high‑availability, mission‑critical systems.
• Knowledge of security best practices: RBAC, managed identities, secrets management, and zero‑trust principles.
