Infrastructure as Code (IaC) : Develop and maintain IaC scripts using Terraform or similar tools to provision and configure Azure resources, ensuring consistency across development, UAT, and production environments. Containerization and Orchestration : Manage containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes, enabling scalable, isolated test and production setups, including headless test runs for QA automation. Database and Backup Management : Oversee database configuration, backups, and recovery strategies for Azure databases (e.g., Azure SQL Database, MS SQL), ensuring data integrity and compliance with SOC 2 best practices.
