Detailed JD:

• Perform systems administration: monitor, configure, back-up, authenticate, tune, maintain, monitor applications, services, and systems.
• Identify issues, develop, and maintain processes that address and resolve them, (and be sure to communicate/alert stakeholders as needed).
• Apply and share technical expertise during incident management life cycle (e.g. analyzes reports and outages, perform impact assessments, facilitate stakeholder communication).
• Apply your deep technology expertise to ensure that all areas across the organization that touch various technologies have the necessary tools, processes, and documentation they need to operate effectively.
• Partner with Operations to automatically integrate with appropriate tools and processes as part of automated/self-serve application, platform, or infrastructure releases.
• Apply an in-depth understanding of relevant business needs and work with technology partners to identify and leverage synergies across the various areas.
• Design, implement and maintain an automated build and install/deploy process; develop and maintain build scripts of projects and/or products.
• Evaluate and recommend optimal technology solutions within business technology architecture; collect environment requirements for infrastructure implementation by analyzing the current system environment, using technical tools and utilities.
• Integrate technical solutions within the business environment, recognizing system interdependencies and reusability, and ensuring seamless delivery.
• Perform Release Engineering functions for either cloud or non-cloud services, products and platforms
• Ensure effective change management (using ServiceNow).
• Give specialized support (like research, installation, configuration, L3 support) and meets or exceeds established standards/service levels, while minimizing operational risk.
• Design, review, integrate infrastructure and application requirements (non-functional, security, integration, performance, quality, operations etc.).
• Build/deploy base infrastructure components (e.g. Azure capabilities including Virtual Machines, ASE, AKS, Blob storage, geo-replication, etc.) and application services for all environments. Help evolve the base infrastructure and operational environment, deploy new technologies in Azure and other cloud providers.
• Maintain base infrastructure components, work with vendors (Azure) to report problems, and receive fixes.
• Implement the 7Cs of DevOps– Continuous (Planning, Development, Integration, Deployment, Testing, Delivery & Monitoring, and Feedback)
• Use metrics to monitor environment performance, pinpoint ways to boost performance and resource utilization.
• Be aware of and follow necessary processes/standards, business technology architecture, risk and production capacity guidelines.
• Create and document disaster and business recovery plans and procedures.
