Azure Network Engineer Position

This role is a hands‑on Azure Infrastructure and Network Engineering position
, responsible for designing, building, and troubleshooting cloud and hybrid networked platforms using Terraform and Azure Dev Ops.

The engineer is expected to think from first principles
, explain why a design works
, and independently diagnose and resolve network and infrastructure issues without relying solely on runbooks.

• Design, build, and own Azure infrastructure using Terraform as the primary IaC tool.
• Create reusable Terraform modules from scratch, not just consume existing templates.
• Explain and apply:
  • Environment isolation strategies
  • Integrate Terraform with Azure Dev Ops YAML pipelines for controlled CI/CD deployments.
  • Perform root‑cause analysis for failed Terraform plans/applies and configuration drift.
  • Refactor manually created Azure resources into fully Terraform‑managed infrastructure.
• Act as the primary Network Engineering SME for Azure and hybrid environments.

• NSGs, ASGs, UDRs, route tables, and effective routes
• Azure VPN Gateway and Express Route connectivity

• TCP/IP, routing vs switching
• NAT, firewall rules, asymmetric routing
• Latency, packet loss, and throughput issues
• Hands‑on experience with enterprise networking platforms:
  • Cisco and Juniper (routing, switching, firewall fundamentals)
  • Edge Connect (SD‑WAN) or equivalent WAN solutions
  • OS/network stack

• Own infrastructure and network changes during approved change windows.
• Perform impact analysis and rollback planning, not just change execution.
• Maintain engineering‑quality documentation, including:
  • Network diagrams
  • Runbooks written by the engineer, not just consumed
  • Contribute to standards, best practices, and continuous improvement

• Mandatory – Terraform & Dev Ops:
  • Strong, hands‑on experience with Terraform on Azure
    .
• Proven ability to:
  • Build Terraform modules independently
  • Use variables, outputs, locals, and lifecycle rules correctly
  • Manage remote state and multi‑environment deployments
  • Experience integrating Terraform with Azure Dev Ops (YAML pipelines).
  • Scripting skills using Power Shell, Bash, or Python for automation.
• Deep understanding of:
  • Core networking principles (TCP/IP, DNS, routing, firewalling)
  • Ability to explain networking concepts clearly and confidently
    .
  • Experience troubleshooting complex hybrid and multi‑network environments
    .
