Summary:

We are seeking an experienced Senior Manager of Infrastructure Services to lead a team of cloud engineers responsible for designing, maintaining, and securing the hosting platform for two distinct global SaaS products. This role combines people management with hands‑on technical leadership across Kubernetes, ArgoCD, and Cloud Native technologies. The ideal candidate will be responsible for day‑to‑day team operations, backlog execution, and cross‑functional coordination, enabling the Director to focus on strategy and stakeholder engagement.

What You’ll Do:

• Directly manage a small team of cloud engineers; handle hiring, coaching, performance reviews, career development, and administrative tasks (time‑off, expense approvals)
• Facilitate team stand‑ups, planning, and backlog refinement; break down Director‑defined initiatives into well‑scoped, actionable work items with the team
• Produce weekly status reports for leadership covering progress, blockers, and upcoming priorities
• Serve as primary point of contact for infrastructure services requests, escalations, and issues from Engineering and other departments; collect requirements and feedback when implementing new systems, guardrails, change management; communicate policy changes and best practices to development teams
• Contribute hands‑on work as needed – assisting the team with k8s guidance and expertise, automation, and infrastructure management; review pull requests from the team; troubleshooting and diagnosing problems

What You’ll Bring:

• 7+ years in cloud engineering or cloud infrastructure with a strong focus on Azure
• 3+ years of direct people management experience leading technical teams
• Experience operating critical production‑level SaaS products and services on Kubernetes
• Experience working in a Linux environment
• Ability to troubleshoot and diagnose issues across every layer of the stack
• Deep understanding of protocols and technologies foundational to the web
• Strong security fundamentals: PIM, RBAC, and JIT privilege elevation
• Proficiency with infrastructure‑as‑code (Terraform preferred)
• Fluency in at least one high‑level programming language (Python, Go, etc.), and one scripting language (Bash, PowerShell, etc.)
• Familiarity with Agile methodologies and experience with Azure DevOps; excellent written and verbal communication with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for non‑technical stakeholders

Preferred:

• Experience in regulated or compliance‑heavy environments (e.g., FedRAMP, SOC 2, NIST 800‑53)
• Experience with Microsoft Government Cloud (GCC High, Azure Government)
• A bachelor’s degree in a relevant field like computer science or software engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Why work at Delinea?

• We’re passionate problem‑solvers helping the world’s largest organizations protect what matters most: their human and machine identities.
• We invest in people who are smart, self‑motivated, and collaborative.
• What we offer in return is meaningful work, a culture of innovation and great career progression.

At Delinea, our core values are STRONG and guide our behaviors and success:
