  • Supporting secure, resilient and well-governed cloud platforms.

Requirements

  • Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Azure, particularly IaaS, networking, storage and platform services.
  • Experience with services such as Azure VMs, Entra ID, Conditional Access, Azure Firewall, Application Gateway/WAF, Azure Monitor and Defender for Cloud.
