- Automate deployment, configuration, and operational processes across Azure environments.
- Support and maintain production-grade cloud platforms, ensuring high availability, reliability, and performance.
- Monitor Azure environments and proactively identify and resolve infrastructure, deployment, and performance issues.
- Implement and maintain appropriate logging, monitoring, alerting, and observability solutions.
- Work with development teams to improve deployment processes and establish effective DevOps practices.
- Support cloud security, access management, networking, and governance in line with organisational standards.
- Troubleshoot and resolve incidents, service issues, and deployment failures in production environments.
- Contribute to cloud platform improvements, technical standards, and automation initiatives.
