You’ll create a modern cloud platform that supports critical, high-impact workloads, with a strong focus on resilience, security, and operational excellence. This is a 4-month contract working on-site in Addison, TX.

  • Build and validate high availability and disaster recovery strategies, including Azure DNS (public/private), DNS-based failover (Traffic Manager/Front Door), cross-region resilience, and RTO/RPO testing.
  • Deploy and configure AKS or similar container platforms, defining scaling, fault isolation, self-healing capabilities, and secure network integration for container workloads.
  • Implement security and compliance best practices, including least-privilege access (RBAC, Azure AD), Key Vault for secrets and certificates, encryption at rest and in transit, and protection of sensitive data (PHI/PII).
  • Establish monitoring and observability using Azure Monitor and Log Analytics, including logging, alerting, dashboards, and full visibility across infrastructure and applications.
  • Build and automate infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, ARM), implement CI/CD pipelines, and ensure repeatable, scalable, and version-controlled deployments.
