Senior Azure DevOps Engineer

As a Senior DevOps Engineer with 8+ years of experience, your role will involve the following key responsibilities: - Design, implement, and maintain YAML-based CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps (ADO) for Python application deployments, integrating automated security scanning and vulnerability gates. - Manage and optimize source code repositories using Azure Repos, enforcing Git branching policies and resolving complex version control issues to ensure repository health. - Implement GitOps workflows within ADO to ensure secure, declarative application delivery. - Architect, develop, and manage version-controlled infrastructure as code (IaC) using Terraform for automated provisioning and configuration in Azure. - Troubleshoot advanced Terraform execution issues, including drift detection limitations, cyclic dependencies, Azure state callbacks, and pipeline deadlocks. - Deploy, monitor, and scale applications using Kubernetes in a cloud environment. - Configure pipeline deployment strategies by implementing release gates, manual approvals, and automated pre/post-deployment checks. - Troubleshoot and resolve issues in the CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure. - Implement best practices for security, scalability, and disaster recovery. - Collaborate with development and operations teams to improve system reliability and performance. Qualification Required: - 8+ years of professional experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, or IT Automation roles. - Expert-level proficiency with Azure Repos for source code management and resolving complex Git merge conflicts. - Deep understanding and hands-on experience with Terraform for infrastructure provisioning, defining safe upgrade strategies, and handling infrastructure state. - Strong experience designing and maintaining CI/CD tools and YAML-based pipelines (specifically Azure DevOps). - In-depth knowledge of Kubernetes for container orchestration and management. - Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure preferred) and cloud-native services. - Experience implementing GitOps and DevSecOps practices. - Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Bash, Python) for automation tasks. - Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills, particularly regarding complex CI/CD and infrastructure issues. Preferred Qualifications: - Certification in relevant technologies (e.g., Azure, Terraform, Kubernetes). - Experience with monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana). - Knowledge of networking and security concepts in cloud environments. - Familiarity with other DevOps tools and technologies (e.g., Docker, Jenkins, Ansible).
