Act as a senior escalation point for incident response, root-cause analysis, and change management related to network and interface connectivity.
Lead design workshops with clients, vendors, and internal stakeholders to align requirements with platform capabilities, identify and scope new features, and own network diagrams, documentation, and runbooks.




Mentor and coach other engineers, drive automation and CI/CD/Infrastructure-as-Code adoption (Azure DevOps, ArgoCD), contribute technical leadership within Agile sprint delivery, and provide weekend/on-call support as needed.
WHAT WE VALUE Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (Master's is a plus), plus 7-10+ years of operational experience supporting mission-critical production systems, ideally SaaS or cloud.

Extensive automation experience with CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code, Azure DevOps, ArgoCD, scripting in PowerShell and Bash, and version control with Git.
Experience with monitoring and observability tooling (Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Application Insights, Grafana) and solid incident/problem management within SLA-driven environments, with strong RCA skills.
