Job Summary
We are looking to engage an experienced Microsoft Azure Subject Matter Expert (SME) for a two (2) month engagement. The primary objective of this engagement is learning and training: the SME will guide our team through the breadth of Azure services, demonstrating real-world configuration, setup, and best practices across the platform. This is not a delivery/implementation role for a specific project; it is a structured knowledge-transfer and hands-on enablement engagement.
Objective of the Engagement
- Provide structured, hands-on training covering the breadth of Microsoft Azure services.
- Walk the team through real configuration and setup of services in a sandbox/dev subscription.
- Explain architectural best practices, security considerations, and cost-optimization tips for each service.
- Build internal team capability to independently configure, manage, and troubleshoot Azure services.
- Create straightforward reference notes,
checklists, or demo scripts that the team can reuse after the engagement ends.
Experience
- Minimum 5+ years of hands-on experience working across multiple Azure service areas (compute, storage, networking, security, databases).
- Proven experience configuring and deploying Azure resources in real or sandbox environments.
- Strong understanding of Azure architecture, security, and governance best practices.
- Prior experience delivering training, workshops, or mentoring — strong communication and teaching ability required.
- Relevant Azure certifications preferred (e.g., Azure Solutions Architect Expert, Azure Administrator Associate, Azure Security Engineer).
- Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code tools (ARM/Bicep/Terraform) is a plus
