Responsibilities
- Implement and own the Bestway Azure Observability Playbook – building comprehensive dashboards, alert rules, and runbooks using Application Insights, Log Analytics, and KQL.
- Develop intelligent alerting systems that leverage AI/ML to detect early‑warning signals – including IP reputation degradation, database saturation trends, and anomalous traffic patterns – before they escalated to incidents.
- Define and execute Operational Acceptance Testing (OAT) gates for all production deployments, ensuring releases meet reliability, performance, and security thresholds before go‑live.
- Conduct periodic audits of the Azure tenant to identify and decommission orphaned or unutilised resources (‘Zombie Resources’) – directly reducing operational burn rate.
- Build and maintain reusable Terraform modules; manage pipeline integrity across GitHub Actions workflows to ensure consistent, reproducible infrastructure deployments with multi‑subscription Hub‑and‑Spoke networking.
Qualifications
- 6+ years in DevOps or SRE roles, with specific experience managing high‑traffic Azure‑hosted environments at scale.
- Mastery of Terraform – including module authoring, remote state management, and workspace strategies for multi‑environment deployments.
- Expert‑level KQL (Kusto Query Language) for Log Analytics; comfortable building custom Azure Monitor workbooks for operational reporting.
- Strong security automation experience: passwordless authentication via OIDC, Azure Key Vault integration, and secrets management best practices.
- In‑depth knowledge of Azure Container Apps (ACA), VNet integration, and Private Endpoint configuration for secure, network‑isolated workloads.
