About the role
About the Role
We are creating a new Azure cloud platform to serve as the foundation for a multi-year cloud modernization program. We need a Lead Azure Cloud Engineer who can walk in, take design ownership, and start building in week one. This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role: you will write the code yourself, stand up the pipelines yourself, and set the technical bar the rest of the teams build against.
You are the senior-most and dedicated cloud engineering voice on this program. You need to be well-rounded: as comfortable troubleshooting a firewall rule or a network route as you are writing a Terraform module or designing the pipeline that deploys it. You will need to work with the firm's existing IT, security, and network teams to land on shared standards, and then you're the one who codifies them into automation.
Tools and Stack You'll Work In
Azure (landing zone, networking, Entra ID) - Terraform + Terraform Cloud - Azure Verified Modules - GitHub Actions - Microsoft Defender for Cloud - Azure Policy - Azure Monitor / Log Analytics - GitHub Copilot / Anthropic Claude (AI-assisted delivery). Our policy-as-code and shift-left scanning has not been finalized; helping evaluate and select this tooling is part of the role.
An internal developer platform pattern for self-service application delivery (e.g. HashiCorp HCP Waypoint, which integrates with HCP Terraform).
