The position blends hands-on technical execution with architectural influence, making it ideal for experienced DevOps professionals who enjoy solving complex infrastructure challenges. You’ll also act as a mentor, helping elevate engineering practices across teams. This is a high-impact role where your work directly contributes to scalable, production-grade systems used in meaningful real-world applications.

• Design, implement, and maintain scalable CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, improving deployment efficiency and reliability.
• Build and manage cloud-native infrastructure on Microsoft Azure, including WebApps, Functions, VMs, and Scale Sets using IaC (Bicep/ARM).
• Ensure system reliability through monitoring, observability, and alerting using Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Log Analytics.
• Drive improvements in deployment frequency, lead time, and system stability through automation and best practices.
• Collaborate with engineering and product teams to define deployment standards, environment strategies, and release readiness.
• Act as technical SME during sprint cycles, supporting delivery planning, risk mitigation, and pipeline health management.
• Provide mentorship and technical guidance to engineers through code reviews and collaborative problem-solving.
• Support infrastructure-related decision-making discussions with clients and stakeholders in a clear, outcome-oriented manner.
• Implement and maintain containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of DevOps processes, tooling, and engineering frameworks.

Requirements:

• 5–8 years of professional experience in DevOps, cloud engineering, or platform engineering roles.
• Strong hands-on expertise with Azure DevOps, including CI/CD pipeline design and project configuration.
• Solid experience with Azure cloud services and infrastructure provisioning using Bicep or ARM templates.
