Responsibilities
- Build and maintain infrastructure as code (Terraform and/or Bicep) and reusable modules to provision Azure resources consistently across environments and sites
- Build CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions and enforce GitOps workflows where changes flow through version control, pull requests, and peer review
- Build and iterate golden paths and self-service capabilities, with guardrails codified as policy to keep provisioning within security, cost, and tagging standards
- Document platform capabilities so internal teams can consume them without one-to-one engineering support
- Manage Azure landing zones and platform services within an Entra ID / Zero Trust model, with observability across monitoring, logging, alerting, and cost
- Ensure changes flow through auditable pipelines supporting SOX ITGC, and apply NERC CIP-aligned controls where platform components support in-scope systems
