(Hybrid position two days a week, Wed/Thurs, in the Plano office.) What You Will Do We are hiring a Cloud Operations Engineer to operate and evolve our Azure cloud platform across commercial and federal environments. You will help harden, scale, and automate services in support of programs including FedRAMP and mission workloads, partnering closely with Cloud Architecture, DevSecOps, Product, and Compliance teams.

Operate and optimize Azure landing zones, AKS, networking, identity, storage, and data services for multi-tenant SaaS workloads across commercial and federal tenants. Implement, monitor, and continuously improve security and compliance controls (logging, patching, vulnerability management, RBAC/least privilege, encryption, backup/DR) aligned to FedRAMP/SOC 2. Drive automation-first operations using Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform) and modern CI/CD pipelines, configuration as code, and self-healing patterns.

Troubleshoot and resolve production incidents; participate in blameless postmortems; provide flexibility for after-hours support; on-call responsibilities may be required in addition to scheduled shifts to ensure full coverage.
