Key responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps Services (Azure Pipelines) and Git-based workflows.
Implement and manage infrastructure as code (IaC) using ARM templates, Bicep, and/or Terraform for repeatable environment provisioning.
Containerize applications (Docker) and manage container orchestration platforms such as AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service).
Automate build, test, release, and rollback processes; integrate automated testing and quality gates into pipelines.
Monitor and improve platform reliability and observability using logging and monitoring tools (e.g., Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Prometheus, Grafana).
Drive platform security and compliance through pipeline controls, secrets management (Key Vault / Vault), and secure configuration practices.
Implement cost-optimization and governance for Azure resources (tags, policies, budgets).
Troubleshoot build/release failures, production incidents, and performance bottlenecks; perform root-cause analysis and implement permanent fixes.
Mentor developers in Git workflows, pipeline authoring, best practices for IaC, and cloud-native design.
Maintain clear documentation: runbooks, deployment playbooks, architecture diagrams, and pipeline templates.
