You will collaborate closely with partner teams to deliver an integrated, secure, and scalable developer experience.

Position Responsibilities:

Cluster & Platform Design

• Design the AKS cluster model for the Canadian segment.

• Implement improvements to existing infrastructure with zero disruption to business operations.

• Build an integrated end‑to‑end experience for application development teams by combining the AKS clusters owned by our team with capabilities delivered by partner teams—including CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, logging, risk controls, and security services.

Automation, AI, & Operational Excellence

• Automate cluster maintenance tasks, operational workflows, and routine processes using Infrastructure‑as‑Code and AI‑assisted tooling.

• Continuously find opportunities to reduce manual effort, improve reliability, and enhance deployment efficiency.

• Ensure compliance with enterprise risk and security standards across cluster design, operations, and governance.

• Monitor and maintain the health, performance, scalability, and security of AKS clusters.

Collaboration & Partner Engagement

• Partner with application development teams to ensure the shared cluster model meets both business and technical needs.

• Work closely with capability‑owner teams (pipelines, observability, risk, security, etc.) to align standards, integrate services, and deliver a cohesive platform experience.

• Maintain positive relationships with business partners and shared technology teams, ensuring alignment on governance, roadmaps, and service delivery.

Required Qualifications:

• 6–10 years of experience in cloud computing (Azure strongly preferred).

• Expertise in automation and Infrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform, Bicep, ARM, etc.).

• Experience using AI‑assisted engineering tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Azure OpenAI, or similar) to improve automation, troubleshooting, and enhance engineering workflows.

• Experience operating or supporting shared platform services—such as shared Kubernetes clusters, CI/CD systems, observability platforms, or security/risk tooling.

• Strong understanding of networking and security concepts.

• Experience with Identity and Access Management (Azure AD, RBAC, workload identity).

• Proficiency with cloud networking infrastructure and distributed system patterns.

• Hands‑on experience with API gateways and cloud‑based architectures.

• Strong system administration background.

• Scripting/programming proficiency (PowerShell, Bash, Python, etc.).

• Experience with containers and Kubernetes (AKS experience is an asset).
