Compliance, Data Flows & Cost Awareness

• Consider PCI or comparable regulatory requirements when evaluating system behavior, logging, and integrations.

• Understand end-to-end data flows across tolling systems (e.g., roadway data, financial transactions, reporting) and support optimization of integrations.

• Contribute to cloud cost visibility and optimization recommendations; align operational choices with governance and budget goals.

Collaboration & Communication

Desired Qualifications

• Experience designing CI/CD standards or DevOps frameworks for microservices.

• Containerization & orchestration (Docker, AKS); registry-integrated build and release pipelines.

• Governance & compliance automation (Azure Policy, RBAC standards, pipeline guardrails).

• Experience with PCI or similar compliance frameworks.
