We are looking for a highly skilled Senior DevOps Engineer to join our engineering team. In this critical role, you will own the end-to-end delivery pipeline for our organization's modern cloud-native applications — from source control governance and build automation through deployment and production observability.
You will act as a trusted technical advisor: designing the infrastructure strategy, defining CI/CD standards, and championing a culture of reliability and continuous improvement across all squads. This role is primarily focused on Azure cloud architecture and DevOps operations, requiring deep expertise in Microsoft and Azure tooling alongside a modern DevOps mindset.
Key Responsibilities
Infrastructure & Architecture
Design and maintain robust Azure cloud infrastructure and services, with familiarity in managing hybrid environments.
Architect network topology, security zones, and firewall rules for multi-tier application stacks.
Define and enforce Infrastructure as Code (IaC) standards across the organization using tools like ARM templates, Bicep, or Terraform.
Evaluate, select, and integrate Microsoft ecosystem tools including Azure DevOps, Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and Azure App Service to optimize cloud platform capabilities.
CI/CD Pipelines Design, build, and maintain multi-stage, secure, and resilient CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines.
Own application build processes: manage dependency restoration, compilation, unit testing, and static analysis for modern software stacks (e.g., .NET, Node.js).
Own front-end pipelines: manage environments, dependencies, testing, and bundling for modern web frameworks (e.g., React).
Implement and enforce branching strategies (e.g., GitFlow, trunk-based development) and configure branch protection policies.
Implement and maintain sophisticated release gates with automated rollback triggers and advanced deployment strategies (e.g., canary, blue-green).
Cloud Deployment & Operations
Manage reliable, automated, and scalable deployment to Azure services (e.g., AKS, App Service, Function Apps).
Implement and manage serverless and containerized deployment strategies in Azure.
Automate cloud resource provisioning and configuration using Azure-native tools.
Coordinate closely with network and security teams for critical cloud operations, including certificate management, Azure DNS configuration, and Azure Load Balancer/Traffic Manager setup.
Monitoring & Observability
Implement and manage comprehensive monitoring solutions using the Azure stack: Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Log Analytics Workspaces.
Define, track, and report on SLIs (Service Level Indicators) and SLOs (Service Level Objectives), managing error budgets in collaboration with development leads.
Build actionable dashboards and detailed alert runbooks to support an efficient on-call rotation.
Implement standards for distributed tracing and structured logging across all services.
Security & Compliance (DevSecOps) Integrate proactive DevSecOps practices: SAST (Static Analysis), DAST (Dynamic Analysis), dependency scanning, and secrets detection directly within the CI/CD pipelines.
Manage Azure Active Directory, define and enforce RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) policies, and secure sensitive data using Azure Key Vault integrations.
Ensure technical implementation is fully compliant with organizational security policies and relevant industry/regulatory requirements.
Required Skills & Qualifications
6+ years of progressive experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or a similar role.
Expert-level expertise in the Azure ecosystem and services (Azure DevOps, Azure Monitor, AKS, Key Vault, Azure Networking, etc.).
Proven ability to design and manage complex cloud infrastructure with an Azure-first approach.
Expert-level knowledge of CI/CD principles and strong practical experience with GitHub Actions and/or Azure Pipelines.
Strong scripting skills in Bash or Python for cloud automation.
Proficiency with IaC tools (e.g., Bicep, Terraform) for managing Azure resources.
Experience with application monitoring, logging, and alerting systems, particularly the Azure monitoring stack.
Solid understanding of networking fundamentals, security best practices (e.g., firewall rules, RBAC, least privilege), and certificate management within Azure.
Familiarity with modern application development concepts is a plus.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with containerization technologies, especially Docker and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
Familiarity with the .NET and React development ecosystem.
Knowledge of Helm, Service Meshes, and container security best practices.
Experience deploying to Windows Server/IIS and managing on-premises infrastructure.
Certifications such as Microsoft Certified: Azure DevOps Engineer Expert or equivalent.
Experience mentoring junior engineers and leading technical initiatives.
Strong documentation and communication skills for stakeholder alignment.
