Principal IaC Engineer - Terraform & Azure Focus

1 day onsite, 4 days remote

Summary

This role is part strategy, part technical. We want a "doer leader" in this role. You will eventually get headcount on this newly established team, but this person needs to be very comfortable remaining hands on for the foreseeable future.

In the past year, we've been starting our migration from on-prem to Azure, and have settled on Terraform + Azure as our primary tooling to support the shift of our applications to the cloud. As such, this position will be driving our Infrastructure-as-Code development effort with Terraform CLI, in a newly established Azure environment. This will be the first position focusing on this at our company, and you will be the Principal Architect, Engineer and Manager to drive these efforts. You will work closely with other infrastructure teams + Enterprise Architecture to understand their roadmaps, and ensure the IaC strategy, and roadmap that you will create, aligns with other department's roadmaps.

Then, you will deliver the IaC engineering, and oversee overall execution of your roadmap.

This is an exciting time to be joining, as this is a greenfield cloud environment you'll be able to make a significant impact on, in a global organization that's continued to grow amidst the recession.
