About the Role
We are looking for a skilled and hands-on Azure Infrastructure Engineer with strong expertise in cloud-native infrastructure architecture and deployment on Microsoft Azure. The ideal candidate will have deep experience in setting up and managing Azure Landing Zones, designing enterprise-grade networks, implementing Kubernetes (AKS) clusters, configuring ExpressRoute, and working with Azure Stack, CLI, and infrastructure-as-code tooling.
This is a pure infrastructure engineering role requiring direct technical execution, system design, troubleshooting, and secure provisioning across hybrid and multi-region environments.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, configure, and manage Azure Landing Zones, including identity, policy, subscription structure, network topology, and security controls

- Implement and optimize networking infrastructure including Virtual Networks (vNets), Subnets, Network Security Groups (NSGs), Azure Firewall, Application Gateways, and Private Endpoints
- Set up hybrid connectivity via ExpressRoute, VPN gateways, vNet peering, and Site-to-Site/IPSec tunnels
- Work with Azure AI Foundry infrastructure requirements, model hosting environments, and access/security isolation
- Use Azure CLI, PowerShell, and Infrastructure-as-Code (ARM templates, Bicep) to automate resource provisioning and configuration
- Configure and manage Azure Stack Hub and hybrid cloud deployments
- Implement monitoring and diagnostics using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and Network Watcher
- Ensure systems are compliant with high availability, backup, disaster recovery (DR), and security standards
- Collaborate with cloud architects and security teams to validate designs and enforce architectural guardrails
- Maintain detailed technical documentation, HLDs/LLDs, and environment runbooks
