Job Summary
- Hands-on experience deploying Azure Landing Zones using the Azure Landing Zone Accelerator (ALZ) with Terraform - designing provisioning and iterating on custom management group hierarchies subscription vending and policy-as-code deployments (this is the core non-negotiable skill).
- Proven experience designing hub-and-spoke network topologies - centralized connectivity subscription hub-based egress (no direct internet from spokes) and spoke-to-hub peering for workload isolation.
- Deep working knowledge of Microsofts Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) with the ability to design multi-tier management group structures beyond the CAF default (e.g. segmenting workloads by environment data sensitivity classification vendor/SaaS ownership and decommissioning lifecycle) and translate them into deployable Terraform modules.
- Strong Azure operational and administration experience - subscription/resource group management RBAC quota and policy governance cost control and day-2 operations across a multi-subscription environment.
- Hands-on experience with Azure Entra ID (Azure AD) and IAM - conditional access role assignments PIM service principals/managed identities and federated identity for workload access.
- Proficiency with Terraform state management module design and CI/CD pipeline integration (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions) for repeatable versioned landing zone deployments.
- Experience with application-tier resilience patterns within a landing zone - e.g. Blue/Green (LIVE/staging) subscription or resource group structures with load-balanced zero-downtime traffic switching.
- Ability to work directly with client architecture teams to translate whiteboard-level segmentation and governance decisions into a deployable Terraform-based landing zone supporting regulated/enterprise environments.
