Senior Azure DevOps / AI Platform Engineer
Updated priority criteria: Microsoft Purview, Microsoft Fabric/OneLake, and Azure AI Foundry should be treated as must-have/priority experience, along with strong hands-on Azure DevOps, Terraform/IaC and CI/CD. Do not send AWS-heavy profiles. Need Azure-specific platform/DevOps engineers, not AI/ML developers.
About the role:
Existing contractor is supporting the Azure environment for AI and data initiatives; new hire will complement their skill set and fill gaps across the Azure platform.
Microsoft Purview is a key need, particularly around AI/data governance.
5 days/week onsite in Woburn, MA

Day-to-day:

Ideal profile:
Senior-level, hands-on Azure Platform / DevOps Engineer supporting enterprise AI and data workloads. Strong Terraform, Azure DevOps/CI/CD, Azure networking, security and identity are required.
