Responsibilities

• Own the full stack of on-premises factory infrastructure—from server provisioning to storage configuration and DR planning.
• Design, deploy, and manage a primarily on-premises environment joined with Entra ID and governed via Azure-based controls.
• Leverage hybrid cloud tools like Azure Arc and Terraform/Ansible for IaC-driven provisioning and governance.
• Troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues and outages to maintain factory uptime.
