• Create runbooks for incident response, disaster recovery, backup validation, environment recovery, and production support.

Cost Optimization and FinOps

• Own Azure cost visibility, budget controls, tagging discipline, usage monitoring, and cost optimization recommendations.
• Build infrastructure cost dashboards for leadership, engineering, and finance.

What We’re Looking For – Required

• 3+ years of hands-on experience managing Microsoft Azure environments.
• Strong Infrastructure as Code experience using Terraform, Bicep, ARM templates, or similar tools.
• Experience managing Azure cost optimization, governance, tagging, budget controls, and cloud resource efficiency.
• Strong understanding of DevSecOps practices and secure cloud architecture.
• Ability to troubleshoot production issues across applications, infrastructure, network, identity, and deployment layers.
• Ability to build executive-level dashboards using Power BI, Azure Workbooks, KQL, or equivalent BI and reporting tools.
• Strong documentation skills, including runbooks, architecture diagrams, deployment guides, and operational procedures.
• Strong ownership mindset with the ability to operate independently and drive outcomes.
