- Design, build, and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform following modular, reusable, scalable, and version-controlled practices.
- Build reusable self-service infrastructure modules and deployment templates that enable development teams to provision environments with minimal manual intervention.
- Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, supporting blue-green deployments, rollback strategies, approvals, and GitOps workflows.
- Deploy, manage, and optimize infrastructure across Microsoft Azure and support AWS/GCP environments where required.
- Administer Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Docker containers, Helm charts, container registries, ingress controllers, Application Gateway, and Service Mesh implementations.
- Recommend cloud architecture improvements to enhance scalability, reliability, performance, and operational efficiency.
- Review application architecture from scalability, availability, reliability, and disaster recovery perspectives and proactively identify infrastructure bottlenecks before they impact production.
- Participate in technical design discussions and collaborate with engineering teams to define cloud-native infrastructure solutions.
- Manage Azure networking components including VNets, NSGs, Private Endpoints, Load Balancers, and Application Gateway.
- Secure cloud environments using Azure Key Vault, Azure RBAC, Azure Policy, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, and security best practices.
- Implement container image vulnerability scanning, secret rotation, and CIS Benchmark recommendations across infrastructure.
- Own PostgreSQL, Redis, and other data infrastructure including provisioning, backup, restore, high availability, monitoring, and performance optimization.
- Implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting using ELK Stack, Grafana, Prometheus, Azure Monitor, and Application Insights.
- Drive infrastructure automation, disaster recovery planning, backup strategies, and platform reliability initiatives.
- Lead cloud cost optimization initiatives by leveraging Azure Cost Management, Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, auto-scaling, right-sizing, and Spot VMs/Spot Nodes where appropriate.
- Continuously improve platform reliability, developer productivity, operational excellence, and infrastructure governance.
- Collaborate closely with product managers, developers, architects, and QA teams in an Agile environment to achieve sprint and release goals.
