With deep expertise across Microsoft Dynamics, Power Platform, Power BI, and secure federal IT delivery, we help agencies modernize mission-critical systems and improve operational performance. HyerTek is hiring an Azure Cloud Engineer to design, build, and operate the cloud infrastructure that supports our federal engagements. You will provision and manage Azure environments, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, deploy and integrate platform services, and partner with development and security teams to deliver secure, performant, well-architected solutions for government customers. This is a hands-on, generalist role. On the infrastructure and DevOps side, you will own infrastructure-as-code, networking, identity, and automation. On the application platform side, you will deploy and integrate Azure services - App Service, Functions, AKS, API Management, and the data and integration services that sit alongside them - to support the applications our delivery teams build. You will work directly with developers, architects, and security engineers, embedded with delivery teams rather than sitting in a separate platform organization. Your work will go to federal customers, and the reliability and security of what you build will directly shape their experience with HyerTek., * Build and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Bicep, ARM templates, or Terraform treat infrastructure as a versioned, peer-reviewed deliverable. * Build and operate CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions for application and infrastructure delivery. * Deploy and integrate Azure platform services - App Service, Functions, AKS, API Management, Service Bus, Logic Apps, and supporting data services. * Configure and manage Entra ID (Azure AD), conditional access, managed identities, and role-based access control across workloads. Implement networking - VNets, NSGs, private endpoints, ExpressRoute, hub-and-spoke topologies - aligned to federal security requirements. * Operate and tune Azure environments for cost, performance, and reliability build dashboards and alerting in Azure Monitor and Log Analytics. * Partner with security engineers to apply Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, and policy-as-code controls remediate findings and support audit activities. * Collaborate with developers and architects to design well-architected solutions, applying the Azure Well-Architected Framework principles. * Document architectures, runbooks, and as-built records suitable for customer handoff. * Support incident response, root cause analysis, and post-incident improvement across managed environments. * Stay current on Azure service evolution and bring relevant capabilities into delivery patterns. ## Related Videos - [Azure-Well Architected Framework - designing mission critical workloads in practice](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1529-azure-well-architected-framework-designing-mission-critical-workloads-in-practice) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [Back(end) to the Future: Embracing the continuous Evolution of Infrastructure and Code](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/440-back-end-to-the-future-embracing-the-continuous-evolution-of-infrastructure-and-code) - [Developer Tools for Microsoft Azure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/450-developer-tools-for-microsoft-azure) - [Bringing AI Model Testing and Prompt Management to Your Codebase with GitHub Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1536-bringing-ai-model-testing-and-prompt-management-to-your-codebase-with-github-models) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [A Guide to Green Tech and Green IT Careers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/374-a-guide-to-green-tech-and-green-it-careers) - [Top-Paying Tech Jobs (with Salaries)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/372-top-paying-tech-jobs-with-salaries)
