  • Strong understanding of networking concepts: DNS, firewalls, routing, BGP, HTTP/S, SSL/TLS, IP addressing, and the OSI model.
  • Experience with hybrid cloud connectivity solutions and network security best practices.
  • Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, ARM templates, or Bicep).
  • Hands-on experience managing and troubleshooting Azure AD, RBAC, and network access policies.
  • Familiarity with identity and authentication protocols (OIDC, SAML, LDAP).
  • Experience with CI/CD tools for infrastructure deployments (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills across infrastructure, security, and operations teams.
Responsibilities
  • Design, implement, and maintain secure, scalable Azure network architectures, including VNets, subnets, firewalls, NSGs, and routing.
  • Configure and optimize Azure networking services such as VPN Gateway, ExpressRoute, Azure Firewall, Application Gateway, and Front Door.
  • Lead advanced troubleshooting across hybrid network environments, authentication flows, and Azure connectivity services.
  • Ensure high availability, performance, and security of Azure networking and infrastructure components.
  • Collaborate with security and platform teams to design secure service-to-service and hybrid connectivity solutions.
  • Maintain infrastructure using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, ARM templates, or Bicep).
  • Contribute to the evolution of network monitoring, alerting, and incident response processes.
  • Ensure compliance with enterprise security, identity, and access control policies.
