Hands-on experience managing hybrid cloud operations—combining cloud services with on-premises infrastructure—is essential. Proficiency in Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform and Ansible, along with scripting skills in Python (preferred), PowerShell, or Bash, is required. Demonstrated expertise in troubleshooting complex incidents, leading major incident responses, and conducting root cause analysis (RCA) is vital. A strong understanding of infrastructure fundamentals including networking, virtualization, storage, and operating systems (Windows Server and Linux) is necessary. Familiarity with IT Service Management (ITSM) processes, particularly incident, problem, and change management, is also important. Knowledge of Azure cloud platform is preferred, along with experience in large, multinational, 24/7 operational environments. Valued additional skills include experience with virtualization, backup and disaster recovery operations, containers, DevOps practices, and ML/DL analytics for operational insights.
Responsibilities

The engineer will lead diagnosis, stabilization, and recovery efforts during major incidents, driving problem management, RCA, and implementing preventive measures to reduce MTTR and MTTC. Defining and tuning observability standards—such as alert quality, dashboards, and logging—is crucial for maintaining high operational visibility and reducing noise. The role also involves advancing AIOps capabilities through predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and capacity planning, leveraging Python-based analytics and ML/DL techniques where applicable. Additionally, the engineer will enable outsourced L1/L2 support teams by providing clear runbooks, training, and governance, ensuring performance aligns with organizational standards. Collaboration with Platform Engineering teams to incorporate operability into platform design, mentoring peers, and fostering a culture of engineering-led operational excellence are integral to this role.
