  • IT Team Collaboration: Participation in IT team Huddles, All Hands, and other collaborative working sessions, to ensure alignment with the technology team and to foster communication, planning and coordination.

  • Increased operational efficiency through automation and improved tooling;

  • Continuing improvements in platform design and operations to meet Microsoft's Azure Well-Architected Framework guidelines while aligning with business needs;

  • Effective incident response resulting in reduced recurrence and improved platform resilience; and

  • Participation in IJM's community of spiritual formation.

Qualifications:
  • 5+ years of experience in infrastructure, cloud, or systems engineering roles;
