5+ years in platform engineering, DevOps, or infrastructure automation
3+ years with cloud providers (Azure preferred)
2+ years building and managing platforms using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, etc.) and container platforms (Kubernetes, OpenShift, Docker)
Experience managing CI/CD platforms and tools (GitHub, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, Jenkins, ACR, Artifactory, Packer)
Experience supporting Kubernetes or cloud-native applications (microservices, containers)
Strong expertise in cloud identity, networking, and security (e.g., Entra ID)
Strong scripting/automation skills (Python, Bash, PowerShell, HCL, etc.)
Deep understanding of CI/CD pipelines, GitOps, and cloud-native operations
Solid grasp of platform reliability, observability, and operational excellence principles
