Job Description

Responsibilities

Design, build, and operate core Azure infrastructure across networking, identity, compute, and storage within a single-tenant SaaS model.
Improve platform scalability, governance, and reliability while embedding Infrastructure as Code as the default approach.
Own and evolve shared CI/CD platform capabilities, including build, test, security scanning, and deployment strategies.
Enable progressive delivery patterns such as blue/green, canary, and automated rollback approaches.
Create reusable templates, paved roads, and standardised engineering patterns that accelerate safe product delivery.
Reduce operational toil through automation and standardisation, addressing root causes rather than recurring symptoms.
Expand self service capabilities that allow product teams to provision and deploy independently within clear guardrails.
Provide and evolve shared observability capabilities, including logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting.
Design platform resilience, performance, and availability capabilities, supporting SLO definition and error budget practices.
Embed security by design, including identity, secrets management, least privilege access, policy enforcement, and vulnerability management.
Contribute clear documentation, platform standards, and engineering guidance that improve adoption and consistency.

Requirements

Strong experience building and operating Azure based cloud platforms in production environments.
Deep understanding of cloud networking, identity, governance, and Azure PaaS services.
Proven Infrastructure as Code expertise using Terraform, Bicep, or similar tooling.
Experience with containerisation and orchestration concepts in modern cloud environments.
Strong CI/CD pipeline design and release engineering experience, including progressive delivery and rollback strategies.
Practical experience implementing observability solutions, including logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting.
Solid understanding of reliability practices, incident response, SLOs, and error budgets.
Strong grasp of identity and access management concepts (OAuth2 / OIDC), secrets management, least privilege principles, and secure supply chain practices.
Strong scripting and automation capability (PowerShell, Bash, Python or similar).
Experience working with Git based workflows and peer reviewed infrastructure changes.
Ability to write clear technical documentation and define platform standards that enable adoption at scale.
