This is an opportunity to shape enterprise cloud strategy, mentor top talent, and make a broad impact without the constraints of direct project management oversight.
Responsibilities

- Define and enforce governance frameworks, RBAC, and security baselines using Microsoft Defender for Cloud and Azure Policy
- Act as technical lead across multiple concurrent projects, coordinating cross-functional teams and managing delivery risks
- Establish and promote technical standards, best practices, and documentation to drive excellence and consistency
- Mentor and coach engineers, championing knowledge sharing and skill development
- Build strong partnerships with application teams to accelerate Azure adoption and innovation
- Oversee monitoring, observability, and operational readiness for all Azure-managed services
Required Skills and Experience
- Deep expertise designing and operating highly available, scalable Azure infrastructure (compute, storage, networking, identity)
- Proven experience with enterprise Azure networking architectures and workload migrations from on-premises to Azure
- Hands-on experience with Terraform or ARM templates for infrastructure automation
- Track record of optimizing Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions pipelines
- Demonstrated leadership in cross-team delivery without formal authority
- Experience implementing governance, RBAC, and security policies in Azure
- Skilled at defining monitoring/observability solutions and producing high-quality documentation
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
- 10+ years of professional IT experience, with 5+ years in a senior, architect-level, or principal cloud engineering role leading Azure initiatives
Preferred Skills
- Proficiency in Azure compute (VMs, AKS), networking (VNETs, NSGs), and Microsoft Entra ID
- Experience in regulated environments (healthcare, higher education, financial) and compliance frameworks (HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2, GDPR)
- Familiarity with Azure Cost Management, FinOps practices, and IT service management concepts
- Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and decision-making abilities
Benefits
- Work in a high-impact, hybrid role at a nationally renowned academic medical center
- Opportunity to lead mission-critical Azure transformations at scale
- Career advancement through hands-on leadership, visibility, and technical ownership
- Collaborative, innovation-driven environment with top-tier colleagues
- Long-term contract with potential for extension
