• Collaborate with infrastructure, network, and information security teams on design validation, implementation planning, and operational readiness activities
• Ensure solutions are secure by design, cost-aware, resilient, and operable in production environments
• Support modernization of legacy platforms into cloud-native, microservices-oriented architectures aligned to enterprise standards and delivery objectives

• 4+ years of experience designing cloud-native, microservices-based, API-first, and event-driven architectures, including modernization of legacy platforms into scalable cloud solutions
• 3+ years of experience with virtual networks, hybrid connectivity, load balancing, Microsoft Entra, and Key Vault in secure enterprise environments
• 3+ years of hands-on experience with Kubernetes or Azure Kubernetes Service, including containerization, scaling, resiliency, and production operations
• Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, information technology, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education, related experience and/or military experience
