The Role:

- Lead projects to refactor and modernize legacy Windows-based systems, transitioning them into fully automated, testable, and observable components.

- Troubleshoot and optimize system performance at the OS, networking, and application level across a large fleet of Windows servers.
- Define and implement secure baselines, monitoring, patching, and compliance across Windows infrastructure.

- Act as the highest escalation point for Windows-related production issues.
- Partner with other Core DevOps, Security, SRE, and Cloud teams to standardize and scale our Windows platform.
- Mentor engineers across teams and promote best practices in observability, resilience, and automation-first thinking.
- 8+ years of experience with enterprise-level Windows Server engineering and DevOps practices.
- Deep expertise with DNS, DFS, IIS, and Windows Failover Clustering.
- Solid experience with automation and configuration management using PowerShell (advanced scripting), Desired State Configuration (DSC), and/or Ansible/SaltStack for Windows.
- Strong understanding of CI/CD concepts applied to Windows environments using GitLab, Azure DevOps, or similar tools.
- Hands-on experience integrating Windows infrastructure with hybrid or cloud-native solutions (preferably AWS).
- Experience with infrastructure provisioning tools like Terraform (including Windows modules) or CDK.
- Strong grasp of Windows performance tuning, debugging, event log analysis, and patching strategy at scale.
- Background in regulated or high-uptime environments such as banking, Forex, or fintech is highly preferred.
- Familiarity with SQL Server automation, .NET Core deployments, and Windows Containers is a plus.
- Comfortable leading incident response and system-level post-mortems for Windows-based production outages.
- Exposure to observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Graylog, Jaeger, etc.).
- Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and orchestration basics (Kubernetes).
- Awareness of infrastructure automation tools (Terraform, Ansible, SaltStack).
- Basic knowledge of REST APIs for automation and integrations.
- Exposure to microservices concepts and distributed systems.
