About the position You will join a technical pod building and operating cloud portal workloads across Azure and GCP. The center of gravity for this role is DevOps and DevSecOps: infrastructure as code, secure CI/CD pipelines, automation, and reliability engineering. You also pick up application-level work on the portal itself when the team needs it, so full-stack comfort is expected, not optional. You will work alongside a hands-on Technical Team Leader and are expected to use AI-first development practices daily.

Responsibilities

• Infrastructure as Code: Design, develop, and maintain reusable Terraform and Ansible modules for Azure and GCP. Enforce configuration standards and policy-as-code practices across environments.
• Cloud Engineering (Azure and GCP): Build and operate scalable, secure Azure and GCP environments: AKS/GKE, App Gateway, VNets, NSGs, Key Vault, Managed Identities. Implement governance, cost optimization, and compliance controls across subscriptions and projects.
• CI/CD & Automation: Build and optimize Jenkins and GitHub Actions pipelines for automated build, test, and deployment across environments. Implement blue/green, canary, and rollback deployment strategies with observability and alerting.
• DevSecOps & Security: Integrate vulnerability scanning, code analysis, and compliance checks into CI/CD workflows. Manage secrets, certificates, and key material with secure vault solutions. Partner with security teams to align infrastructure with FedRAMP, FIPS, ISO, PCI standards.
• Application Work (Portal Use Cases): Contribute to basic portal application code (modern JS/TS frontend, REST API endpoints, simple backend handlers) when the work calls for it. Wire applications into the platform: observability, secrets, auth, and deployment patterns the team has standardized on.
• Monitoring & Reliability: Implement proactive monitoring with Azure Monitor, Google Cloud Monitoring, Prometheus, Grafana, Log Analytics. Define and tune SLOs, SLIs, and error budgets aligned to business outcomes.
• Collaboration & Agile Practices: Partner with product and engineering teammates in agile ceremonies: planning, standups, retrospectives, release management, and post-incident reviews.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in DevOps, Site Reliability, or Platform Engineering, with full-stack application exposure.
• Proven expertise on any of the following: Azure (preferred), AWS, or GCP cloud architecture and automation.
• Hands-on with Terraform, Helm, Kubernetes, and reusable module design.
• Strong with CI/CD tooling: Jenkins or GitHub Actions
• Familiarity with security frameworks.
• Experience with container security, image scanning, and supply chain security.
• Proficiency in scripting: Bash, Python, or PowerShell.
• Application-level comfort: building or maintaining portal-style web apps (modern JS/TS frontend plus a REST backend).
• Working fluency with AI-first development: daily use of AI coding assistants, prompt and context discipline, comfort reviewing AI-generated output for correctness and security.
• Excellent troubleshooting across infrastructure, network, and application layers.
• Strong written and verbal English; able to collaborate in US-EST hours.
• Clear, accountable communicator.
• Strong problem-solving instincts.
• Ownership: takes responsibility for end-to-end delivery.
• Collaboration: builds trust across teams and communicates transparently.
• Adaptability: adjusts quickly to new priorities and technologies.
• Continuous learning: proactively explores automation, AI, and new DevOps practices.
• Security mindset: integrates security at every stage of development and deployment.
• Outcome focus: measures success through reliability, speed, and cost efficiency.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or equivalent professional experience.

Nice-to-haves

• Certifications: Azure (AZ-104/AZ-400), GCP (Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer), CKA/CKAD, HashiCorp Terraform Associate.
• Prior experience in regulated environments (FedRAMP, BFSI, healthcare).
• Ansible
• ArgoCD
• Familiarity with security frameworks, such as: FedRAMP, FIPS, CIS Benchmarks, ISO, PCI.
• Full-stack application fluency for portal use cases (modern JS/TS frontend, REST APIs, common backend frameworks).
