Job Description: We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Azure DevOps Engineer with a strong focus on networking to join our dynamic team. As the Senior Azure DevOps Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, configuring, and maintaining Azure networking components, building, maintaining, and optimizing our CI/CD pipeline, and automating infrastructure using IaC. You will ensure the reliability and scalability of our Kubernetes clusters in a multi-DC environment, and your expertise in Azure networking, scripting, and troubleshooting will be instrumental in achieving our goals. Your role will also involve collaborating with cloud architects, DevOps, and security teams to support application and infrastructure projects, and implementing private endpoints and service endpoints to secure access to Azure services.

Key Responsibilities:
Design, configure, and maintain Azure networking components: This includes Virtual Networks (vNets), VPN Gateways, Load Balancers, Network Security Groups (NSGs), and Azure Firewall.
Build and manage reproducible, version-controlled infrastructure: Use Terraform for deploying Azure network resources.
Troubleshoot network issues: Optimize network performance and reliability.
Collaborate with cloud architects, DevOps, and security teams: Support application and infrastructure projects.
Configure and manage load balancers, application gateways, and traffic managers: Ensure high availability and performance of applications.
Implement private endpoints and service endpoints: Secure access to Azure services.
Design and manage Azure infrastructure: Use services like Storage Accounts, Azure SQL, Key Vault, AKS, Azure Cache, App Gateway, Load Balancer, DNS, and Blob Storage.
Implement and maintain IaC using Terraform: Automate and manage infrastructure deployments.
Deploy and manage CI/CD workflows using ArgoCD: Optionally use GitHub Actions to enable automated, auditable deployment strategies.
Administer Azure App Configuration and Key Vault: Securely manage secrets and configuration data across environments.
Collaborate with security and compliance teams: Implement and enforce RBAC and network-level policies, including WAF protections and secure ingress strategies.
Support platform scalability and availability: Experience in Virtual Networks, Load Balancers, API Gateway patterns, and Azure Functions.
Qualifications:
Proven experience with Microsoft Azure networking services.
Expertise with F5 Load Balancers.
Experience with Cloudflare DNS platform: Terraform scripting skills are essential.
Strong hands-on experience with Terraform: Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code best practices.
Hands-on experience with Palo Alto Networks firewalls: Including centralized management with Panorama.
Proven experience in complex firewall migrations: Security policy design and rule base optimization.
Strong background in Layer 2/3 networking: VLANs, routing protocols (OSPF, BGP), NAT, VPNs, and high availability configurations.
Proficiency in routing, subnetting, DNS, VPNs, and firewalls.
Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git): CI/CD pipelines for IaC deployments.
Azure certification(s) such as AZ-700 (Azure Network Engineer Associate) or AZ-104 preferred.
Familiarity with other IaC tools (e.g., ARM, Bicep): This is a plus.
