Azure Network Engineer

Introduction:

This role is a hands-on Azure Infrastructure and Network Engineering position, responsible for designing, building, and troubleshooting cloud and hybrid networked platforms using Terraform and Azure DevOps. The engineer is expected to think from first principles, explain why a design works, and independently diagnose and resolve network and infrastructure issues without relying solely on runbooks.

Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and own Azure infrastructure using Terraform as the primary IaC tool.
• Create reusable Terraform modules from scratch, not just consume existing templates.
• Integrate Terraform with Azure DevOps YAML pipelines for controlled CI/CD deployments.
• Design and troubleshoot Azure VNETs, subnets, peering, and hub-and-spoke architectures.
• Act as the primary Network Engineering SME for Azure and hybrid environments.
• Perform end-to-end troubleshooting across various networking platforms.
• Own infrastructure and network changes during approved change windows.
• Contribute to standards, best practices, and continuous improvement.

Requirements:

• Strong, hands-on experience with Terraform on Azure.
• Proven ability to build Terraform modules independently.
• Experience integrating Terraform with Azure DevOps (YAML pipelines).
• Deep understanding of Azure networking constructs and core networking principles.
• Ability to explain networking concepts clearly and confidently.
• Experience troubleshooting complex hybrid and multi-network environments.
• Scripting skills using PowerShell, Bash, or Python for automation.

• Experience with DNS, TCP/IP, Virtual Private Network, Microsoft Azure, Firewall, and Continuous Integration.
• Hands-on experience with enterprise networking platforms like Cisco, Juniper, and SD-WAN solutions.
