  • Act as a Designated Responsible Individual (DRI) on rotation, monitoring for issues, triaging incidents, and driving mitigations within Service Level Agreement (SLA) expectations
  • Lead incident response for your areas: perform deep diagnostics, identify root causes, implement durable fixes, and contribute to high‑quality post‑incident reviews
  • Instrument features and services with meaningful telemetry to improve visibility, alerting, performance tracking, and early issue detection
  • Use operational data and insights to guide improvements in availability, reliability, and service health
  • Develop scripts, tooling, and automation to reduce manual effort, eliminate operational friction, and enable safer, faster production changes
  • Help build the engineering systems, pipelines, and validation processes that support reliable release and deployment workflows in sovereign environments
  • Apply secure‑by‑design principles appropriate to sovereign cloud scenarios, including least privilege, defense in depth, and compliant data handling
  • Help validate and reinforce compliance expectations across new features, integrations, and operational workflows
  • Collaborate with engineering partners across Azure to deliver integrated solutions that work seamlessly with Microsoft cloud tooling and infrastructure
  • Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and technical deep dives
  • share learnings and help elevate team engineering standards

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 2+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR equivalent experience
  • Active U.S. Government Top Secret Clearance with access to Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) based on a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) with Polygraph
  • Verification of U.S. citizenship
  • Ability to pass Microsoft Cloud background check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter

Nice to have

  • Master’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field AND 2+ years of software engineering experience OR Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field AND 3+ years of software engineering experience OR equivalent experience
  • Proficiency in C# and experience building cloud‑ready services, tools, or platform components
  • Hands‑on experience with Azure or similar‑scale cloud platforms, with strong interest in cloud‑first PaaS development and platform integration
  • Experience building or operating services in sovereign or regulated cloud environments
  • Familiarity with scripting and automation tools (e.g., PowerShell, Python) to streamline diagnostics and engineering workflows
  • Experience supporting production or cloud services, including logging, telemetry, monitoring, alerting, and on‑call/DRI responsibilities
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze service health data to identify trends and drive reliability improvements
  • Problem‑solving and debugging skills across cloud services, platform components, and operational tooling
