Working alongside a talented team of Cloud Engineers, DevOps professionals and Developers, you'll help ensure platforms run smoothly, efficiently and reliably. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include: Keeping Azure cloud platforms running reliably, securely and efficiently. Investigating technical issues, identifying root causes and putting long-term solutions in place.
