Why Join Us | DuPont Careers Cloud Infrastructure & Automation Engineer Role Summary: The Cloud Infrastructure & Automation Engineer is responsible for designing, building, automating, and supporting secure Azure cloud infrastructure for enterprise workloads. The role combines hands-on engineering across ARM Templates, YAML pipelines, Azure networking, cloud governance, monitoring, and production troubleshooting. This is not a purely operational role; it requires automation-first thinking, strong design discipline, and the ability to deliver repeatable, compliant, and supportable cloud infrastructure solutions.

Design, deploy, and support Azure infrastructure for cloud, hybrid, and application delivery platforms. Build reusable Infrastructure as Code using ARM Templates with parameterized, modular, and secure deployment patterns. Create and maintain YAML-based CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure validation, provisioning, approvals, and environment promotion. Design and troubleshoot Azure networking including Virtual Networks, subnets, NSGs, route tables, VPN/ExpressRoute, load balancers, Application Gateways, DNS, and IP addressing. Automate cloud operations, deployment tasks, configuration checks, and repeatable environment provisioning activities. Support production incidents by analyzing deployment history, effective routes, NSG rules, diagnostic logs, health probes, connectivity tests, and monitoring data. Apply governance controls including RBAC, Azure Policy, tagging, diagnostic settings, secure secrets handling, and compliant release practices. Partner with Cloud Architects, Security, DevOps, Operations, and Application teams to deliver reliable infrastructure services and technical documentation. Identify improvements to deployment consistency, infrastructure reliability, security posture, operational readiness, and cloud cost efficiency. Technical Skills Required Azure Cloud Platform: compute, storage, identity, RBAC, governance, monitoring, diagnostic settings, and enterprise landing zone concepts. Infrastructure as Code: ARM Templates, template parameters, variables, outputs, dependencies, linked/nested templates, and reusable deployment patterns. YAML and deployment pipelines: Azure DevOps YAML pipelines, stages, jobs, approvals, service connections, variables, artifacts, and release controls. Cloud networking: VNets, subnets, NSGs, route tables/UDRs, TCP/IP, DNS, private IP/public IP addressing, VPN, ExpressRoute, peering, and hybrid routing. Traffic management: Azure Load Balancer, Application Gateway, health probes, backend pools, listeners, routing rules, SSL/TLS handling, and basic WAF concepts. Troubleshooting: production connectivity analysis, NSG flow validation, effective route review, DNS checks, deployment operation logs, and root cause analysis. Automation and scripting: PowerShell, Bash, Azure CLI, Git, pull requests, branching, code reviews, and repeatable operational scripts. Monitoring and operations: Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, alerts, dashboards, runbooks, incident/problem/change management, and operational documentation.

Experience with Bicep, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Azure Firewall, Private Endpoints, AKS, or Azure Landing Zones. Experience designing infrastructure patterns for enterprise-scale, regulated, or globally distributed environments. FinOps awareness and ability to optimize infrastructure cost through automation, standardization, right-sizing, and governance. Exposure to platform engineering, self-service
