Senior Engineer, EDT Data & Analytics Cloud Engineering

Senior Engineer, EDT Data & Analytics Cloud Engineering

The Senior Cloud Platform Engineer supports the operational excellence, security, and reliability of the enterprise data & analytics platform on Azure. The role combines platform operations, DevOps automation, and Infrastructure as Code across the core stack - Azure Databricks, Synapse, ADLS Gen2, Azure SQL, Azure Data Factory, Key Vault, and Unity Catalog - with a reliability-engineering mindset: automate repeatable work, apply security best practices by default, and help keep the platform highly available for global data engineering and analytics teams.

What you will do:

DevOps Pipeline Management & CI/CD

• Build and maintain Azure DevOps pipelines for CI/CD, automating build, test, and deployment across development, testing, and production environments.

• Support high service availability through solid workflow management, smooth promotion processes, and efficient pipeline operations.

Infrastructure as Code & Environment Provisioning

• Implement and maintain platform infrastructure as code using Terraform, ensuring consistent, repeatable provisioning and configuration across environments.

• Provision and maintain environments - workspaces, compute, storage, networking, and access - using automated IaC processes, and help identify configuration drift.

Platform Security & Access Management

• Support platform security alongside development and operations teams - implementing RBAC, access controls, and security configurations across Azure Data Factory, Databricks, Synapse, Azure SQL, ADLS Gen2, Key Vault, and Unity Catalog.

• Apply Azure data service security best practices, including secrets management, identity integration, and least-privilege access.

Platform Operations & Reliability Engineering

• Contribute to platform monitoring, alerting, performance tuning, and incident response, with a focus on root-cause analysis and preventive fixes.

• Monitor integration runtimes and platform services, troubleshooting pipeline and runtime issues to help protect SLAs.

Data Engineering Operations

• Partner with Data Platform and Data Product teams to build and operationalize data pipelines, orchestration, and Databricks workloads.

What you need:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, Business, or a related technical field, with 2-5 years of experience in cloud engineering, data warehousing, or modern data & analytics platforms.

• Strong hands-on expertise with Azure data technologies, including Azure Databricks, Synapse Analytics, ADLS Gen2, Azure SQL, Azure Data Factory, Key Vault, and Unity Catalog.

• Proven experience implementing Azure platform security, governance, and data service best practices to deliver secure, scalable, and reliable cloud solutions.

• Proficiency in Azure DevOps and CI/CD pipeline management, with experience automating deployments and releases across multiple environments.

• Working knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform to provision, manage, and standardize cloud infrastructure.

• Experience monitoring and optimizing cloud data platforms, including alerting, performance tuning, incident management, and root cause analysis.

• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving capabilities, with the ability to identify patterns, resolve complex technical issues, and drive continuous improvement.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a proactive mindset for ownership, automation, and process optimization while partnering effectively across engineering, operations, security, and business teams.

• Cloud Engineering certifications on Azure/Databricks platform is a plus.
