Senior DevOps Architect - Cloud Infrastructure & CI/CD Engineering, Delivery Team

Location: Remote

We're looking for a Senior DevOps Architect to join our delivery team in a primarily client-facing, billable capacity, working directly with clients on their cloud infrastructure and CI/CD engagements. This role is primarily Azure-focused, with working exposure to AWS for clients running dual-cloud or AWS-native environments. The core of the job is designing, building, and maintaining CI/CD pipelines as code, using Terraform to provision and manage infrastructure inside client environments. You will work as an embedded or advisory member of client delivery teams, translating their requirements into production-grade infrastructure and pipeline solutions, and helping their internal engineers adopt these practices. Beyond individual client engagements, you will also work with senior engineering leadership to establish repeatable DevOps patterns that can be reused across clients.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for client application and infrastructure delivery, primarily in Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions, depending on the client's standard W

• Write and maintain Terraform modules to provision and manage client Azure infrastructure, with secondary support for AWS resources on cross-cloud engagements

• Manage infrastructure as code across multiple client environments, including state management, module versioning, and drift detection

• Automate build, test, and deployment workflows to reduce manual release steps and shorten client lead time to production

• Implement and advise on infrastructure security practices, including secrets management, least-privilege IAM and RBAC, and policy-as-code guardrails

• Monitor pipeline health and infrastructure reliability, and troubleshoot failures across build, deployment, and runtime layers

• Collaborate with client development teams to containerize applications and integrate deployment pipelines with Azure Kubernetes Service, AKS, or equivalent

• Support client developers across full-stack builds, troubleshooting issues that span frontend, backend, and infrastructure layers, not just the pipeline

• Document pipeline architecture, infrastructure patterns, and runbooks for client operational handoff

• Mentor cl
