• Define and validate DR/BCP strategies (RTO/RPO), including zone-redundancy, geo-replication, backups, and failover testing
• Mentor and coach engineering teams; lead architecture reviews, threat modeling, technical workshops, and author clear documentation and reference architectures
• Evaluate and guide adoption of new Azure capabilities; collaborate with partners and vendors to enhance our platform
What you will bring:
• 7+ years in cloud architecture or platform engineering, with deep hands-on expertise in Microsoft Azure and experience setting cloud strategy and roadmaps

• Strong DevOps/SRE practices: CI/CD (GitHub Actions), GitOps, blue/green and canary deployments, infrastructure testing, and progressive delivery
• Hands-on with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and/or Bicep; ARM), policy-as-code, and environment bootstrapping at scale
• Solid grasp of networking and hybrid connectivity (ExpressRoute, VPN), security-by-design, and zero trust
• FinOps mindset with demonstrable cost optimization, tagging/chargeback, budgets/alerts, and rightsizing
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills; ability to influence across product, SRE, security, and leadership
• Proficiency in scripting/coding (PowerShell and one of Python/C#/Go)
• Nice to have: Azure Solutions Architect Expert (AZ-305), Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ-400), CKA/CKAD; experience in regulated environments (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR); contributions to public docs/reference architectures
