Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and operate shared platform services on Microsoft Azure, with a strong focus on AKS-based runtime platforms.
• Develop and maintain reusable infrastructure and platform modules (Terraform, Helm) that enable safe self-service by application, data, and ML teams.
• Own platform components end-to-end (build–run), including availability, performance, security, cost, and operability.
• Define and evolve platform standards and golden paths for workload onboarding, networking, identity, secrets, observability, and scaling.
• Implement infrastructure and platform changes using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and GitOps-style workflows.
• Contribute to and improve CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions, including automated validation, approvals, and rollbacks.
• Ensure platform services meet agreed SLOs, security controls, compliance requirements, and resilience standards.
• Implement and maintain observability using New Relic, including metrics, logs, alerts, and dashboards.
• Enable application teams with reliable deployment and runtime patterns (e.g. ingress, service mesh, secrets, scaling, CI/CD integration).
• Support DataOps and MLOps workloads by providing secure, scalable platforms for data pipelines, model training, and inference.
• Act as a senior technical partner to software engineers, data engineers, and ML engineers.
• Mentor and support junior and mid-level engineers, sharing platform engineering best practices.

Required Qualifications

• Strong experience in cloud engineering, with hands-on expertise in Microsoft Azure.

• Strong working knowledge of Helm for Kubernetes workload and platform configuration.
• Experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps and/or GitHub Actions.
• Solid understanding of cloud networking, identity (Azure AD / Managed Identity), private endpoints, and security controls.
• Experience designing self-service platforms or reusable infrastructure patterns.
• Strong understanding of reliability engineering, incident management, and change control in production environments.
• Practical experience with observability and monitoring, ideally with New Relic or equivalent tools.
• Clear communicator, able to explain technical trade-offs and risks to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
