Job Description
Job Overview
\n
The DevOps / Platform Engineer builds and maintains the technical infrastructure that enables AGS's entire AI and data program to run reliably in production. This is a hands-on individual contributor role responsible for cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, container orchestration, and the agentic AI deployment platform — including standing up the Microsoft Fabric data foundation and Azure AI Foundry agent runtime that the rest of the transformation program depends on. The DevOps Engineer is a prerequisite for the AI program: without reliable infrastructure, no agent, model, or migrated dataset can reach production.

Responsibilities
\n
- \n
- Provision and manage the agentic AI platform infrastructure — Azure AI Foundry as the primary agent hosting/runtime environment, Azure AI Search for vector and keyword retrieval, container-based agent deployment, and Azure ML model serving endpoints
- Build the Microsoft Fabric data foundation — support OneLake, Lakehouse/Warehouse, and medallion (bronze/silver/gold) architecture setup, including wave-based migration of on-prem, Salesforce, and AWS-hosted interactive data into Fabric
- Container orchestration — manage Docker containers, Kubernetes or Azure Container Apps, Azure Container Registry, Helm charts, and health monitoring for all deployed services
- Implement monitoring and observability — deploy Datadog, Azure Monitor, and Azure ML model monitoring/App Insights for infrastructure health, application performance, AI model latency and drift, and cost tracking
- Implement security and governance controls at the infrastructure level — secrets management (Azure Key Vault), Entra ID (RBAC, managed identities, SSO), network segmentation and private endpoints (VPN/ExpressRoute), and data lineage/governance via Purview
- Support game build pipelines — understand and support the Unity game build process including certification compliance checkpoints and regulatory requirements
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for game software, AI models/agents, and business applications (GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps) — automated build, test, and deployment without manual intervention
- Create developer-friendly infrastructure — reduce friction for game developers, AI engineers, and data engineers so they can ship without infrastructure blockers

Skills/Requirements
\n
- \n
- 5–8 years of DevOps or platform engineering experience, with demonstrated ownership of cloud infrastructure at a company of comparable technical complexity
- Azure expertise (required) — deep hands-on experience with Azure, AGS's target cloud platform for Fabric and Foundry; AWS familiarity is a plus, since some interactive data currently sits in AWS
- Infrastructure as code proficiency — Terraform, Bicep, or Pulumi for reproducible, auditable cloud environments
- Container and orchestration experience — Docker, Kubernetes, or Azure Container Apps; Helm chart management; experience scaling containerized workloads
- AI/ML infrastructure experience — has deployed LLM-based applications or ML models to production; experience with vector search (Azure AI Search, Pinecone, or pgvector), model serving APIs, and LLM cost management
- CI/CD pipeline expertise — GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or Jenkins; has built pipelines for polyglot environments (multiple programming languages and frameworks)
- Security fundamentals — experience implementing secrets management, network security groups, and cloud IAM (Entra ID or equivalent) integration
- Strong scripting skills — Python and Bash for automation; PowerShell for Windows/Azure environments
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
