- Act as a senior technical point of contact for the customer, collaborating directly with technical leadership and project stakeholders.
- Provide day-to-day guidance and coordination for a small engineering team, helping drive technical alignment and delivery quality.
- Contribute to cloud architecture decisions, environment improvements, and DevOps best practices.
- Work on Azure-based platform services and, where relevant, support multi-cloud or AWS-related components.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to troubleshoot issues, improve performance, and ensure secure and efficient cloud operations.
- Support platform modernization efforts, with potential involvement in Databricks-related DevOps enablement and deployment workflows.
- Ensure documentation, knowledge sharing, and engineering standards are maintained across the team.

- Strong understanding of cloud architecture, operational excellence, and infrastructure best practices.
- Ability to work directly with customers and technical stakeholders in a collaborative and professional way.
- Good communication skills in English.
- Ability to work independently, take ownership, and bring structure in dynamic project environments.
