  • We are seeking a Cloud Platform Engineer to build and scale enterprise grade Azure cloud environments from the ground up for a leading UAE bank.
  • You will design secure, cost efficient landing zones to enable AI driven applications, with strong focus on automation, governance, and FinOps.
  • This role is critical to the bank’s cloud transformation and AI adoption roadmap.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement Azure landing zones aligned to CAF and WAF for banking workloads. Define network, identity, security, and governance baselines for multi subscription environments. Ensure compliance with UAE Central Bank regulations, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS.
  • Build Terraform/Bicep driven infrastructure with modular, reusable code. Maintain full GitOps lifecycle and ensure all Azure resources are automated, versioned, and reproducible. Enforce Azure Policy, tagging, and RBAC at scale.
  • Integrate Azure services such as OpenAI, Azure AI Search, Cognitive Services, and Azure ML into the platform. Enable secure connectivity to data sources and vector databases for AI driven banking use cases. Implement guardrails for data privacy and model governance.
  • Manage API gateways using Azure APIM or Kong. Configure secure connectivity via VNet, Private Endpoints, ExpressRoute, and Azure Firewall. Implement service mesh and ingress patterns for microservices.
  • Optimize cloud spend through FinOps practices: budgets, anomaly detection, rightsizing, and reserved instances. Provide cost transparency to app teams and enforce chargeback/showback models.
  • Ensure robust hub spoke networking, DNS, and hybrid connectivity. Set up centralized monitoring using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and Grafana. Build automated CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps for infra and platform components. Enable self service for application teams at scale.
  • Implement Key Vault, Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, and zero trust principles. Design for HA/DR with defined RTO/RPO. Conduct DR drills and maintain platform SLAs.

  • 2+ years in banking/FSI or other regulated industries.
  • Proven experience building landing zones for enterprise clients.
  • Expert in Terraform, Bicep, Azure Networking, Azure Policy, AKS, APIM, Azure OpenAI, and Azure AI Search.
