  • Document infrastructure designs, deployment procedures, and operational runbooks.

  • Collaborate with InfoSec, DevOps, and application teams to ensure secure and compliant cloud deployments.

  • Mentor junior engineers and promote best practices in Cloud engineering, DevOps, and CI/CD.

  • Hands-on experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, ARM, Bicep).

  • Strong understanding of hybrid cloud architectures, including VPNs, ExpressRoute, and integration with on-prem systems.

  • Experience working with third-party vendor products in a cloud-hosted environment.

  • Excellent problem-solving, documentation, and communication skills.

**Preferred Qualifications: **
