## About the Role

* 6+ years in DevOps, platform, or cloud infrastructure engineering.
 * Deep hands-on Azure experience (compute, networking, identity, storage, security).
 * A track record of building and owning CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar).

## Description

We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to own and modernize how we build, ship, and run software on Azure. You'll have real influence over our CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and reliability practices. You'll work directly with engineering, security, and leadership, with autonomy to fix what's slowing teams down.

What You'll Do:

CI/CD & Release Engineering

 * Own and evolve our CI/CD pipelines, making releases faster, safer, and more automated.
 * Drive Infrastructure as Code adoption (Terraform/Bicep) and environment consistency from dev to production.
 * Partner with developers to remove friction in builds, testing, and deployment.
 * Stand up visibility into build, release, and deployment metrics (e.g., DORA).

Azure Platform & Infrastructure

 * Operate our Azure environment across networking, identity, access control, and security.
 * Lead reliability, performance, and scalability improvements, including readiness for seasonal peak demand.
 * Drive cost optimization, right-sizing, and capacity planning.

Reliability & Operations

 * Serve as the technical lead with our managed service provider (NOC/SOC) on monitoring, alerting, and incident response.
 * Shape escalation paths and lead incident reviews, root-cause analysis, and preventive fixes.
 * Document platform standards, configurations, and runbooks.

What Success Looks Like (First Year)

 * Releases are routine and low-risk, with measurably fewer deployment and environment issues.
 * Infrastructure is defined in code and reproducible.
 * The platform handles peak periods without issue.
 * Incidents are caught early, escalated cleanly, and don't repeat.
