Azure Network Engineer

About This Role

Design, implement, and support secure and scalable network solutions within Microsoft Azure environments. This role focuses on hands-on Azure Infrastructure and Network Engineering, designing, building, and troubleshooting cloud and hybrid networked platforms using Terraform and Azure DevOps.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and own Azure infrastructure using Terraform as the primary IaC tool.
• Create reusable Terraform modules from scratch, explaining and applying resource dependencies, state management, and environment isolation strategies.
• Integrate Terraform with Azure DevOps YAML pipelines for controlled CI/CD deployments.
• Perform root-cause analysis for failed Terraform plans/applies and configuration drift.
• Refactor manually created Azure resources into fully Terraform-managed infrastructure.
• Act as the primary Network Engineering SME for Azure and hybrid environments.
• Design and troubleshoot Azure VNETs, subnets, peering, hub-and-spoke architectures, NSGs, ASGs, UDRs, route tables, effective routes, VPN Gateway, ExpressRoute, Azure Firewall, NVAs, and load balancers.
• Demonstrate strong understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, routing vs switching, DNS resolution, NAT, firewall rules, asymmetric routing, latency, packet loss, and throughput issues.
• Perform end-to-end troubleshooting across application layer, OS/network stack, Azure networking constructs, and on-prem ↔ cloud connectivity.
• Own infrastructure and network changes during approved change windows, performing impact analysis and rollback planning.
• Maintain engineering-quality documentation, including network diagrams, Terraform module documentation, and runbooks.

Requirements

• Strong, hands-on experience with Terraform on Azure
• Proven ability to build Terraform modules independently, use variables, outputs, locals, and lifecycle rules correctly, and manage remote state and multi-environment deployments.
• Experience integrating Terraform with Azure DevOps (YAML pipelines).
• Scripting skills using PowerShell, Bash, or Python for automation.
• Deep understanding of Azure networking constructs and core networking principles (TCP/IP, DNS, routing, firewalling).
• Experience troubleshooting complex hybrid and multi-network environments.

Qualifications

• 5+ years enterprise networking experience preferred
