- Design and support Azure networking solutions including Virtual Networks, subnetting, Private Link, private endpoints and private DNS zones.
- Implement secure connectivity, identity, secrets management and network isolation patterns.
- Collaborate with application and security teams to ensure production environments meet enterprise standards.

• Kubernetes & Container Platforms
- Deploy and operate containerized applications on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).




- Manage Kubernetes deployments, services, ingress, configuration, secrets, scaling, health probes and production troubleshooting.
- Improve reliability, observability and deployment consistency across AKS environments.

• CI/CD & Automation
- Design, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or comparable tools.
- Automate infrastructure provisioning, application deployments, validation and operational tasks through code.
- Integrate security checks, testing, approvals and deployment controls into delivery pipelines.

• Software Engineering & Collaboration
- Develop automation and platform utilities using Python or another programming language.
- Apply software engineering practices such as source control, code reviews, testing, modular design and documentation.
- Work closely with developers, architects, QA and cloud teams to support end-to-end delivery.

Required Technical Skills & Competencies

- 8+ years of relevant software engineering, cloud engineering or DevOps experience.
- Strong hands-on experience deploying applications and infrastructure into production Azure environments.
- Strong Infrastructure as Code experience using Bicep or ARM templates.




- Deep Azure infrastructure knowledge across compute, identity, storage, networking, security and monitoring.
- Strong Azure networking fundamentals, specifically Private Link, private endpoints, private DNS zones, Virtual Networks and subnetting.
- Strong Kubernetes knowledge with hands-on production experience in Azure Kubernetes Service.
- Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or similar tools.
- Hands-on programming proficiency in at least one language, preferably Python. The candidate must clearly state the language and proficiency level.
- Prior software development experience and the ability to write maintainable automation and platform code.

Must-Have Skills

- Production Azure deployment experience.
- Production-level AKS and Kubernetes experience.
- Bicep or ARM-based Infrastructure as Code.
- Azure networking, including Private Link and DNS zones.
- GitHub Actions or comparable CI/CD tooling.
- Programming capability, preferably Python.
- Previous hands-on software development experience.

Desired Attributes

- Strong engineering mindset with the ability to automate rather than rely on manual processes.
- Excellent troubleshooting, analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Strong ownership of production quality, security, reliability and deployment outcomes.
- Clear communication and effective collaboration across distributed teams.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with evolving priorities.
