Insight Global is seeking an Infrastructure Engineer II to join a growing infrastructure team supporting a large-scale hybrid Microsoft Azure environment.

This engineer will help standardize and modernize the organization’s cloud infrastructure while continuing to support business-critical on-premises and cloud-connected systems. The role will focus heavily on Azure, Terraform/Infrastructure as Code, Azure governance, and enterprise infrastructure architecture.

The ideal candidate comes from a strong systems or infrastructure engineering background and has developed deep, hands-on Azure expertise. They should be comfortable designing enterprise-level solutions while remaining hands-on with implementation, troubleshooting, and production support.

What You'll Do

• Design, deploy, and manage standardized Azure development, test, and production environments.
• Build and maintain reusable Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, Bicep, ARM templates, or similar Azure-native tooling.
• Help establish standardized Azure architecture using Landing Zones, management groups, subscriptions, Azure Policy, and RBAC.
• Implement Azure infrastructure across compute, storage, identity, monitoring, backup, scaling, and disaster recovery.
• Convert manually provisioned infrastructure into repeatable, version-controlled Infrastructure as Code.
• Support hybrid infrastructure spanning Microsoft Azure and on-premises environments.
• Assist with Azure API Management and enterprise-level Azure solutions.
• Support deployment strategies across multiple production environments, including blue/green deployment concepts.
• Troubleshoot Windows and Linux infrastructure, Active Directory, DNS, system access, patching, storage, and application dependencies.
• Support backup and disaster recovery platforms such as Veeam, Rubrik, or comparable cloud-native solutions.
• Integrate infrastructure deployments with Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, and CI/CD workflows.
• Partner with security, networking, database, application, and support teams to resolve infrastructure issues.
• Participate in incident response, root-cause analysis, recovery efforts, and after-hours support when necessary.
• Develop documentation, runbooks, deployment standards, and operational procedures.

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of infrastructure engineering, systems administration, cloud engineering, or hybrid infrastructure experience.
• Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure infrastructure and enterprise Azure environments.
• Experience deploying infrastructure through Terraform, Bicep, ARM templates, or comparable Infrastructure as Code tooling.
• Experience with Azure Landing Zones, Azure Policy, management groups, subscriptions, RBAC, and cloud governance.
• Strong knowledge of Windows/Linux infrastructure, Active Directory, DNS, backup/recovery, patching, and monitoring.
• Experience architecting or implementing enterprise-level infrastructure solutions.
• Familiarity with Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience supporting hybrid environments spanning cloud and on-premises infrastructure.
• Strong troubleshooting, documentation, communication, and organizational skills.
• Azure Administrator Associate or comparable Microsoft Azure certification.

Preferred Experience

• Azure API Management (APIM)
• Blue/green deployment strategies
• Veeam, Rubrik, or Azure-native backup and disaster recovery
• Building reusable Terraform modules
• Azure monitoring and operational tooling
• Azure Policy exemptions and enterprise governance
• Experience helping organizations standardize cloud environments and reduce one-off infrastructure configurations
