Responsibilities:

• Collaborate closely with application development teams to optimize build, test, and deployment workflows, reducing cycle time and increasing release frequency
• Architect, implement, and optimize multi-stage CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps (YAML, Environments, Templates, Deployment Groups) and GitHub Actions for cross-service deployments across microservices and data workflows
• Manage and optimize use of package repositories (e.g., Azure Artifacts, GitHub Packages, NuGet, npm), ensuring artifact integrity, traceability, and lifecycle control
• IT Governance of code release lifecycle, supporting semantic versioning, automated tagging, and changelog generation in CI/CD workflows
• Automate infrastructure provisioning using Terraform, Bicep, and ARM templates, enforcing modular reusable patterns, policy-as-code, and guardrails via Azure Policy, BluePrints, and Management Groups
• Evaluate, integrate, and manage the full DevOps toolchain (build servers, artifact repositories, dependency scanners, secrets managers, etc.) to maintain delivery agility
• Design and deliver secure, scalable cloud-native architectures using App Services, AKS, Azure SQL, Functions, and API Management, aligning with PaaS-first principles and Well-Architected Framework standards
• Use pipeline analytics and deployment telemetry to identify bottlenecks, reduce build/test times, and improve developer feedback loops
• Enable full-stack observability with Log Analytics, Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and KQL-based dashboards, supporting SLA/SLO instrumentation, synthetic monitoring, and real-time alerting
• Implement shift-left testing strategies, supporting unit, integration, and performance testing automation directly within pipelines
• Apply DevSecOps practices in the CI/CD lifecycle, including integration of SAST, DAST, secrets scanning, code signing, and artifact provenance validation using Snyk, CredScan, OWASP ZAP, and Aqua Security
• Integrate infrastructure validation into the delivery process via tools such as Pester, Inspec, or Terratest
• Lead containerization and deployment strategies using Docker, Helm, and AKS, supporting multi-tenant clusters, network isolation, pod security policies, and auto-scaling
• Implement blue-green, canary, and ring deployments for applications and APIs using traffic routing, feature flags, and deployment slots
• Build self-service platforms and reusable DevOps tooling to streamline developer onboarding, environment provisioning, and deployment configuration
• Maintain golden pipeline templates and DevOps starter kits to standardize delivery across teams
• Conduct failure mode analysis, RCA, and resilience engineering using Azure Chaos Studio, Availability Zones, and Auto-healing logic tied into Application Health Probes
• Maintain architectural runbooks, deployment documentation, and operational SOPs, ensuring compliance with audit trails and change management standards
• Partner with software and data analytics teams to support deployment of data pipelines, Azure Data Factory, Databricks, Synapse, and Event Grid/Event Hub integrations
• Enable infrastructure and DevOps support for machine learning, ETL, analytics, and data lake environments, ensuring secure service access, RBAC, and cost controls
• Support self-service enablement for developers and data teams via pipeline templates, service connection governance, and shared agent pools
• Serve as a Tier 2/3 escalation for platform-related issues, coordinating closely with infrastructure and security teams
• Operate within an ITSM framework, contributing to incident, change, and problem management practices
• Use Jira Service Management to triage, track, and respond to infrastructure-related work items, automation requests, and deployment support
• Participate in, adhere to and support compliance and diversity, equity, and inclusion program objectives
• Other duties as assigned
