The engineer will work hands-on across AKS cluster administration, deployment pipelines, security enforcement, observability, and automation templates. This is an opportunity to shape a Platform-as-a-Service offering, improve operational maturity, and drive GitOps-based delivery for event-driven microservices.

• Implement Pod security policies, node-to-node encryption, and enforce NIST-aligned security controls when deploying container images
• Integrate AKS logs (application, event, cluster, user activity, diagnostics) into Azure Event Hub or Storage and enable real-time monitoring
• Manage authentication and authorization for cluster access using managed identities, service principals, certificates, and secrets
• Deploy and manage HTTPS Ingress controllers and TLS certificate management for Kubernetes services
• Use governance and scanning tools to monitor images, runtime, vulnerabilities, registries, and hosts

• Experience deploying Linux and/or Windows Kubernetes clusters from Azure CLI and using AKS for CI/CD runtime
• Working knowledge of NIST security policies and standards, FedRAMP, CSA, or ISO cloud/container standards
• Proficient with code versioning tools such as GitHub
