Automate cloud operations, system configuration, and monitoring tasks.
Implement secure cloud practices aligned with federal requirements (RBAC, Key Vault, IAM, encryption standards).
Ensure compliance with NIST, RMF, FedRAMP, and agency-specific controls.
Use Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and related tools to analyze system health, diagnose issues, and enforce SLAs.
Work with engineering, security, and program staff to support ongoing cloud modernization efforts.
Support onsite collaboration with customer stakeholders (note: role cannot be performed remotely long-term).

Experience supporting Azure networking (VNets, routing, NSGs, VPN/ExpressRoute).
Hands-on experience with Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) in production environments.
Understanding of federal cloud security frameworks (FedRAMP, NIST, RMF).
Ability to work on-site in Washington, DC four days per week.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience supporting DoD or federal agency cloud environments.
Experience with Docker/Kubernetes (AKS).
Azure serverless tools (Functions, Logic Apps, Event Grid).
Cost optimization using Azure Cost Management / FinOps practices.
