About The Position

AWG is looking for a hands‑on individual contributor responsible for implementing and maintaining Azure resources using Terraform and contributing to Azure DevOps (ADO) pipeline work as part of a cross‑functional engineering team. Focusing on delivering secure and repeatable Azure Resources across production, development, test, and DR environments.

Requirements

5+ years of hands‑on cloud infrastructure experience with demonstrated Azure work.
Deep, practical Terraform experience: modules, state backends, workspaces, and lifecycle management.
Experience contributing to Azure DevOps pipelines, YAML, pipeline tasks, and agent pool usage.
Strong understanding of Azure networking, RBAC, private endpoints, and firewall/service integration.
Proven troubleshooting skills for pipeline runs, Terraform plan/apply failures, and provider/state issues using logs and telemetry.
Experience with secure secret handling in CI/CD and operational runbook creation.
Excellent written documentation skills and ability to work effectively as an individual contributor within a team.

Responsibilities

Develop, test, and maintain reusable Terraform modules and IaC patterns for VMSS, storage accounts, vNets/subnets, private endpoints, firewalls, and other Azure services/resources.
Contribute to Azure DevOps pipeline development and maintenance, including YAML pipeline tasks, step definitions, and deployment templates.
Support self‑hosted ADO agents and agent pools; assist with agent image creation, capacity planning, and tuning for predictable pipeline throughput.
Implement and enforce IaC best practices: module versioning, remote state management and locking, change‑review gates, and pipeline‑driven promotion workflows.
Automate environment bootstrap and guardrails for prod, dev, test, and DR subscriptions; maintain subscription and resource group configurations.
Integrate deployments with security and operations tooling: secrets management, Defender/endpoint installs, SIEM telemetry, Azure Monitor and deployment alerting.
Troubleshoot pipeline and Terraform failures, provider issues, and state conflicts; collaborate with pipeline owners to reduce flakiness and improve reliability.
Produce and maintain technical documentation, module interfaces, naming conventions, and operational runbooks to ensure repeatability and audit readiness.
Work cross‑functionally with security, networking, SRE, and application teams to ensure Azure resources meet compliance, connectivity, and performance requirements.
Validate post‑deployment state, support rollbacks, and participate in remediation for infrastructure incidents.
