  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives, identifying opportunities to enhance efficiency, performance, security, and scalability.
  • Champion DevOps principles, encouraging collaboration, automation, and best-practice engineering across technology teams.
  • Provide technical leadership, guidance, and mentorship to engineers, promoting best practices and supporting capability development.

What you will need to succeed:
  • Extensive experience in Azure focused Cloud & Platform Engineering 
  • Experience in designing and building out Azure environments
  • Previous background in Azure Infrastructure or Cloud Engineering is preferred
  • Proven experience developing Terraform from scratch - not using pre-built modules
  • Experience designing & building CICD pipelines with GitHub Actions & Azure DevOps
  • Proven experience in designing and maintaining Azure Networking - Private Networking, VNet, NSG, Firewalls, Loadbalancers
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical teams.

If you think you can be the one to shine in this role then APPLY now for a confidential chat!
