Job Description:
The DevOps and Cloud Engineer supports client’s ITD Tolling modernization by building secure, automated deployment processes and ensuring reliable delivery and update of services. The role standardizes CI/CD, improves availability, and cost efficiency.
Core Responsibilities: DevOps & Cloud Engineering
CI/CD Engineering & Release Automation
- Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps (YAML and Classic) for microservices and APIs.
- Establish reusable pipeline templates, release standards, and guardrails for compliant, repeatable deployments.
- Implement secure Products and key management using Azure Key Vault and managed identities in pipelines.
- Automate database deployment workflows (e.g., DACPAC/SQLCMD) and integrate migration steps into releases.
- Enable blue/green or automated rollback strategies to minimize downtime and risk.
Environment Consistency & Observability
- Standardize provisioning and configuration across Dev/QA/Prod environments; codify configuration baselines.
- Build monitoring dashboards and actionable alerts for pipeline and deployment health (App Insights, pipeline logs).
- Uphold DevOps best practices tailored to a compliant government environment.
- Azure Resource Engineering & Governance
- Implement and maintain Azure services and governance standards (e.g., App Services, Function Apps, API Gateways/API Management, AKS) supporting Tolling workloads.
- Support identity and access management (e.g., Entra ID SSO and role assignments) following least-privilege principles.
- Ensure solutions are fault tolerant and highly available; coordinate change requests and rollback procedures.
- Monitoring, Troubleshooting & Reliability
- Monitor Azure services and application workloads to ensure uptime and performance; perform diagnostic deep-dives with Azure Monitor and Log Analytics.
- Triage production incidents, drive timely resolution, and document root cause findings; participate in operational cycles and maintenance readiness checks.
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
Partner with architects, developers, DBAs, and engineers to align deployments with secure network and identity configurations; communicate clearly with stakeholders.
Required Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps CI/CD (YAML & Classic).
- Azure application deployment engineering (e.g., App Services, Functions, Containers, APIs).
- Secure Products & key management (Azure Key Vault, RBAC, managed identities).
- SQL deployment automation integrated with CI/CD.
- Logging & observability (App Insights, pipeline logs, dashboards, alerts).
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates).
- Scripting & automation (PowerShell and/or Python).
- Experience with Azure administration/engineering in production environments.
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.
- Exposure to cloud cost analysis and optimization in enterprise environments.
- Azure certifications (e.g., Client‐104, Client‐305, Client-400) preferred .
