This role is for you if you're looking for growth, autonomy, and the chance to impact a company’s future tech landscape.

  • Deep understanding of Azure security features (Entra, RBAC, PIM/PAM, NSGs, Azure Firewall)
  • Experience with monitoring tools like Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, or similar (e.g., Grafana, ELK)\n
\n
\n Desired Skills & Experience
  • Experience with containerization/Kubernetes
  • Familiarity with prominent observability tools (e.g., Prometheus, Loki)
  • Mentorship or leadership experience within engineering teams
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Clear examples of principle-centered decision making and collaborative architecture discussions\n
\n

  • 10% On-prem integration
  • 10% CI/CD & IaC (Terraform, Azure DevOps)\n
\n Daily Responsibilities

  • 15% Mentorship & Team Collaboration
  • 15% Cross-functional Stakeholder Engagement & Architecture Planning\n
\n
\n The Offer
