Cloud Engineer

What You Can Expect

We are looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Cloud Engineer to support the provisioning, configuration, and maintenance of cloud infrastructure within our Microsoft Azure environment. In this hands-on role, you will work alongside experienced engineers to automate deployments, manage containerized workloads, and contribute to secure, scalable, and efficient cloud operations. This is an excellent opportunity for a technically curious individual eager to build a career in cloud engineering.

How You'll Create Impact

• Provision, configure, and maintain Azure cloud resources across development, QA, staging, and production environments.
• Implement and maintain infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Bicep and ARM templates, following established standards and approval processes.
• Monitor cloud environments for performance, availability, cost optimization, and application health using Azure Monitor, Azure Log Analytics, and Azure Application Insights.
• Assist in analyzing logs, metrics, traces, and alerts to support incident response, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement.
• Participate in day-to-day cloud operations including incident response, change management, access reviews, and cloud resource tagging.
• Deploy, operate, and support containerized applications on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) with an emphasis on secure-by-default and safety-focused configurations.
• Support AKS safety and security features including:
  • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and least-privilege access
  • Network policies and private cluster configurations
  • Pod and container security best practices
  • Cluster and workload observability using logs, metrics, and alerts
  • Patch management and Kubernetes version upgrades under guidance
• Perform scaling, health monitoring, and basic troubleshooting of Kubernetes workloads using kubectl, Helm, and Azure CLI.
• Contribute to CI/CD workflows and deployment automation in collaboration with developers using GitHub Actions, with attention to deployment safety, validation, and rollback strategies.
• Create and maintain documentation for cloud infrastructure, deployment processes, observability standards, security controls, and operational procedures.
• Participate in agile ceremonies including sprint planning, retrospectives, and internal knowledge-sharing sessions.

Your Background

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Azure and core services such as Virtual Machines, App Services, Storage, Networking, and identity services.
• Practical understanding of Kubernetes fundamentals (pods, deployments, services, namespaces) and container orchestration concepts.
• Experience using Docker and container deployment tools such as Helm.
• Familiarity with application monitoring and observability tools, including Azure Monitor, Azure Log Analytics, and Azure Application Insights.
• Experience with scripting or automation using PowerShell, Bash, or programming languages such as Python or C#.
• Understanding of cloud security fundamentals including RBAC, identity management, network segmentation, and least-privilege principles.
• Ability to follow defined processes and controls while progressively taking ownership of assigned systems and tasks.
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative, team-oriented mindset.

Travel Expectations

• Occasional overnight travel as necessary.

This is a full-time position and it may reasonably require additional hours during the week and weekend; specific requirements will be determined with Manager.
