. Deep hands on experience with Microsoft Azure, including AKS, Container Apps or App Service, Azure Functions, API Management, Key Vault, Storage, and core networking
. Proven experience provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure declaratively using Terraform and/or Bicep/ARM, with reusable modules, state management, and environment promotion strategies.
. Strong experience building, hardening, and deploying containerized workloads on Kubernetes/AKS, including Helm charts, resource tuning, horizontal and cluster autoscaling, and ingress configuration.
. Experience designing and maintaining multi stage CI/CD pipelines in Azure Dev Ops or Git Hub Actions, covering build, test, security gates, artifact management, and progressive deployment (blue green or canary).
. Proficiency in Python for automation, tooling, and operational scripting. Ability to read and debug application code written by the engineering team.
. Hands on experience with Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Log Analytics (KQL), and/or Prometheus, Grafana, and Open Telemetry. Ability to instrument distributed systems and establish actionable alerting.

. Practical experience with Microsoft Entra , managed identities, RBAC, secrets and certificate management, Dev Sec Ops  scanning, and network isolation patterns for sensitive workloads.
. Proven experience operating large production applications, including capacity planning for high concurrency workloads, defining SLOs, incident response, and optimizing compute and inference spend.
. Demonstrated ability to deliver in short iteration cycles alongside rapidly evolving requirements, balancing speed with the platform stability and guardrails that production AI systems require.
. Excellent problem solving abilities, attention to detail, ownership under ambiguity, and strong communication skills across engineering, data science, and business stakeholders.
. Agentic Frameworks:
Familiarity with Lang Chain/Lang Graph, Semantic Kernel, or Model Context Protocol (MCP), and the operational patterns of multi agent and tool calling systems.
. Git Ops:

Experience with ArgoCD or Flux for declarative, Git driven cluster management.
