• Design and implement API integration patterns using Azure API Management (APIM).
• Build secure, containerized applications using Docker and Azure Container Registry.
• Implement enterprise identity and security patterns using Microsoft Entra ID, Managed Identities, and Azure Key Vault.
• Work with Azure VNets, private endpoints, DNS, routing, and firewall controls.
• Build and support CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps and/or GitHub.
• Implement logging, monitoring, observability, and production support capabilities.
• Troubleshoot issues across AI, application, API, data, identity, network, container, and Azure infrastructure layers.
• Work closely with client technical consulting, architecture, security, infrastructure, data, and product teams.
• Lead technical design, whiteboarding, troubleshooting, and knowledge-transfer sessions.
• This role is hybrid.

• Minimum 8 years' experience designing and delivering solutions on Microsoft Azure.
• Minimum 5 year's Hands-on experience developing Generative AI and/or Agentic AI applications.

• Experience building AI agents, orchestration workflows, grounding, and tool-calling integrations.
• Working knowledge of Model Context Protocol (MCP), including developing or troubleshooting MCP servers and tools.
• Experience with Microsoft Fabric and enterprise data or analytics solutions.
• Strong API development and integration experience, including REST APIs and Azure API Management.
• Experience with Docker, containers, and Azure Container Registry.
• Good understanding of Azure networking, including VNets, private endpoints, DNS, routing, and firewalls.

• Experience with CI/CD using Azure DevOps and/or GitHub.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot solutions across multiple technology layers.
• Strong communication and client-facing skills.
• English is required for this position as this role will regularly interact with stakeholders across Canada, US and other countries across our Global footprint where English is the common language. Due to the significant high volume of interactions with these English-speaking stakeholders, which is inherent to this position, it is not possible to reorganize the company's activities to avoid this requirement.
