- Implement and enforce security best practices across our Azure environment and Kubernetes clusters.
- Collaborate with development teams to ensure applications are designed for cloud-native deployment and operational efficiency.
- Participate in on-call rotation as needed to support critical systems.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices in Azure, Kubernetes, and DevOps.

- Proficiency in setting up and managing CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools (e.g., Terraform, ARM templates).
- Strong scripting skills (e.g., PowerShell, Python, Bash).
- Familiarity with monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Azure Monitor, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).
- Good understanding of networking concepts in a cloud environment.
- Experience with Git version control.
- Excellent problem-solving attitude.
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills in English.
- BS in Computer Science, IT, IS, or equivalent experience.
