Within the CoreAI organization, the Azure Managed Redis team is responsible for delivering a fully managed, enterprise-grade Redis experience to customers worldwide. We partner closely with Redis Inc. to bring the latest Redis Enterprise capabilities to Azure, and we operate one of the largest Redis fleets on the planet. Our dataplane infrastructure team owns the critical systems that deploy, upgrade, monitor, and heal Redis clusters at massive scale — ensuring five-9's availability for workloads that demand sub-millisecond latency.

Architect the end-to-end release platform across infrastructure, application, and observability layers to accelerate release velocity and improve deployment safety
Write high-quality, production-grade code in languages such as C# and Go while modeling best practices for reliability, testability, and operational excellence
Lead design and review of testing strategies with strong coverage across unit, integration, and end-to-end system tests for distributed infrastructure
Apply AI techniques (e.g., GitHub Copilot, LLMs, anomaly-detection models) to enhance DevOps, operations, and engineering workflows
Build and improve observability, monitoring, and diagnostics tooling to enable rapid incident detection, root-cause analysis, and self-healing capabilities at scale
Mentor engineers on distributed systems design patterns, operational best practices, and verification strategies
Set high standards for code reviews, diagnosability, and maintainability across the team
Identify and fill gaps in deployment, orchestration, and operational tooling by building or adopting scalable and reusable solutions
Stay current with new technologies, industry trends in cloud infrastructure and data platforms, and share knowledge across the team
Lead cross-functional planning, estimation, and execution of high-impact technical initiatives with partner teams across Azure
Engage directly with internal customers, partner teams (e.g., Azure Compute, Networking, Redis Inc.), and on-call operations to align platform capabilities with service reliability and accelerate growth
