We're working with a Fortune 200 energy titan powering the future of the American grid on this exciting opportunity. We are hunting for a heavy-hitting Azure expert to architect and optimize the mission-critical cloud infrastructure that supports over 10 million customers across the East Coast and Midwest.
As a Senior Systems Engineer, you won't just be maintaining servers; you'll be the technical backbone of a massive energy transformation. You will leverage PowerShell, Ansible, and Azure Databricks to drive high-performance data analytics and secure, scalable cloud architectures within a complex enterprise environment.
The Role
• Lead the design and implementation of complex hybrid-cloud systems, focusing on Microsoft Azure environments for large-scale data analytics (Data Lake, Synapse, SQL DB).
• Architect and deploy automation solutions using PowerShell and Ansible to streamline infrastructure provisioning and operational efficiency.
• Collaborate with IT Architecture Review Boards to define long-term strategy and deliver logical/physical architecture diagrams for secure application hosting.
• Provide high-level technical mentorship to junior engineers and interns while leading peer code reviews and deep-dive troubleshooting sessions.
• Drive financial optimization by performing cost and capacity management analysis to ensure cloud spend aligns with business value.
What You'll Need
• 4-9 years of deep experience in IT infrastructure design, cloud computing, and system administration (minimum 4 years with a CS/IT degree).
• Expert-level proficiency in Microsoft Azure, specifically within Data & AI stacks (Azure Databricks, Fabric, Azure ML) and security governance.
• Strong automation toolkit featuring PowerShell or Ansible for infrastructure-as-code and configuration management.
• Proven ability to translate complex technical jargon into mission-critical business insights for senior leadership and stakeholders.
• Hands-on experience with disaster recovery, vulnerability remediation, and enterprise-grade security controls.
What's On Offer
• Competitive base salary ($117k - $161k) plus a lucrative 15% annual performance bonus.
• Robust retirement package including a 401(k) match plus an additional annual company contribution.
• Comprehensive wellbeing suite: Tuition reimbursement, adoption/surrogacy assistance, and generous PTO including maternity and parental bonding leave.
• Collaborative hybrid work model across major hubs like Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, and DC.
