What I'm looking for

I value transparency in recruitment processes and appreciate clear details about roles and salary ranges for efficient, aligned communication.

At ServiZurich, I architected and led the technical development of an automated solution for provisioning Azure environments through Azure DevOps pipelines. I also coordinate platform engineers and guide technical decisions for reusable pipeline templates and PowerShell components.

In my current role, I manage Azure infrastructure and design CI/CD pipelines for Azure Landing Zones using Terraform and Azure DevOps YAML. I also collaborate with Microsoft on next-generation Azure Landing Zone architecture.

As an Azure Developer at ServiZurich, I improved Azure API Management solutions and designed an API import system. I also developed an APIOps strategy and realigned deployment pipelines with Bicep.

Earlier at ServiZurich, I designed cloud-native solutions with .NET and Azure Functions, and developed microservices using Azure services. My background also includes software development, testing, and project management across a range of organizations.
