* Act as the primary escalation point for critical incidents and support after-hours resolution and release activities.
* Administer SQL databases, manage security, implement encryption and compliance best practices, and support high availability configurations and experience with performance tuning.
* Mentor technical staff, support DevOps maturity, and ensure operational excellence across the stack.
* Engage with development teams, vendors, and customers to align technology and business outcomes.
What You'll Bring
* 10+ years in senior IT roles with a focus on operations and platform engineering.
* Proven expertise across Microsoft Azure, SQL Server, enterprise networking, and cloud security.

* Proven success in CI/CD pipeline engineering and infrastructure as code (Terraform or ARM).
* Experience in 24x7 SaaS support environments and ISO/IEC 27001-compliant operations.
* Strong communication and incident leadership skills with a customer-centric mindset.
Desirable (but not essential)
