About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Convert existing development-only Dockerfiles into production-ready, multi-stage container builds with health checks and graceful shutdown handling (including draining in-flight background jobs before termination)
Stand up and administer a container registry, including access policies, image tagging conventions, and retention/cleanup automation
Extend CI/CD pipelines to add container build-and-push steps, and migrate deployment targets from traditional package-based deployment to container-based App Service deployments
Author Infrastructure-as-Code modules from scratch covering compute, database, storage, secrets, and monitoring resources
Build provisioning automation for identity/app-registration setup, database initialization, and environment bootstrapping
Implement liveness and readiness health endpoints that verify downstream dependency connectivity (database, queue, background job processing)
Build a telemetry pipeline that exports sanitized, PII-free operational metrics to a centralized monitoring system, with configurable scope and destination
Design and maintain a tracking/registry system for infrastructure deployments, capturing version, status, and configuration state across many environments
Extend deployment pipelines to support automated, tag-based promotion and staged/canary rollout strategies, with per-environment failure isolation and rollback
Build a controlled mechanism for pushing critical patches outside the normal release cadence, with audit logging, notification workflows, and approval gates
Partner with engineering to audit core subsystems (background job processing, database partitioning/sharding, secrets access patterns, external integrations, feature-flag and analytics tooling, licensing/validation logic, notifications, scheduled tasks) for portability across deployment environments
Optimize databases (Azure SQL, Cosmos DB) for performance and scalability, including sharding and partitioning strategies
Ensure horizontal scaling strategies to handle SaaS growth efficiently
Implement caching (Redis, CDN) and performance tuning techniques
Lead incident response and root cause analysis (RCA) efforts, reducing mean time to recovery (MTTR)
Participate in the on-call rotation as a first responder to production incidents and emergency scenarios, providing timely triage and resolution outside of standard business hours
Work closely with Engineering, Security, and Product teams to align platform goals with business objectives
Act as a technical mentor for junior and mid-level engineers, fostering best practices in DevOps, cloud, and automation
Advocate for reliability engineering practices (SRE principles, SLAs, SLOs, error budgets)
