Daniel Becker
@danielbecker
Azure Cloud & AI Platform Engineer specializing in DevSecOps and AI-native automation.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Azure-certified Cloud & AI Platform Engineer with 3 years of experience building secure, automated cloud platforms and deploying AI-native solutions in production. I bring Microsoft DevOps and AI credentials, and I focus on turning governance and security into practical delivery speed.
At Exsis Digital, I designed cross-subscription CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and OIDC federation to enable zero-secret deployments to Azure Container Registry and AKS. I automated container security with Trivy gates and established a CVE risk-acceptance policy that reduced critical vulnerabilities reaching production to zero. I also built modular Terraform IaC with remote state, reusable modules, and environment-specific tfvars to eliminate configuration drift and cut provisioning time.
I deliver reliability and operational clarity using an enterprise observability stack—Azure Managed Prometheus, Grafana dashboards, and KQL-based alerting in Azure Monitor, including SLO tracking and incident response workflows. I apply FinOps practices like budget alerts, cost anomaly detection, and AKS pause schedules for non-production environments to support measurable cloud spend reduction.
I’m equally focused on AI enablement: I led internal adoption workshops and integrated GitHub Copilot and Azure AI Foundry tooling into engineering pipelines. I’ve built RAG-based agents on Azure AI Foundry with Azure AI Search and Azure OpenAI, while evaluating security and compliance needs like prompt injection risk and data residency requirements.
