Job description

The Azure Engineer we hire will help scale our infrastructure from thousands to millions of concurrent users. The offer reads simply — freelance, $125,000 - $170,000, 6 years, and a senior role where ownership is not a perk but the point.

Key Responsibilities

• Build the mentorship-focused Elasticsearch feature that wins back the AK accounts Industrial Advantage Corp lost
• Sketch the Redis architecture, defend it in review, then build the thing
• Translate candor-rich business requirements into technical specifications and tasks
• Own the bias-to-action edge cases in Industrial Advantage Corp's Prometheus billing nobody else wants to touch
• Spot the quietly-excellent Prioritization anti-pattern in review before it spreads through Industrial Advantage Corp

What You'll Bring

• Meticulous attention to detail across every deliverable
• A solid foundation in Prioritization, refined over 5+ years
• Demonstrated Observability expertise in a fast-moving technology environment
• Real proficiency with Prometheus, plus willingness to learn Prioritization fast
• At least 6 years building expertise within the technology space
• Fluency in Load Balancing earned the hard way, not just from a tutorial
