Automation & Efficiency • Configure our Claude account to balance benefits and usage costs – we want to optimize net benefits of working with Claude • Scaffold and maintain Claude Code environments for engineering • Own the governance layer for AI agents operating within HRCI systems • Set up Cowork environments so go-to-market, operations, finance, and other non-technical teams can automate workflows without routing every request through engineering • Maintain and extend CI/CD pipelines for code deployment • Improve deployment processes to reduce errors and increase velocity • Maintain development, staging, and production environments • Maintain and organize code repository documents including provisioning npm and NuGet repos Infrastructure & Cloud • Configure, monitor, and maintain Azure services and virtual machines • Build and manage containerized applications with Azure Container Apps • Migrate workloads from VMs to containers • Troubleshoot system performance issues and implement reliability improvements • Execute all of the above through control panels or scripts • Research and recommend new Azure services to improve reliability and reduce costs • Learn and maintain working knowledge of our core SaaS platforms (eCommerce, CRM, Office 365, collaboration tools, contact center, etc.) • Arrange users, settings and permissions across platforms Security • Harness Claude across our environments to identify and fix security vulnerabilities • Monitor and respond to the threat landscape for coding agent-enabled attack patterns: prompt injection, supply chain attacks through AI-generated code, and adversarial use of the same agentic tools our engineers use • Maintain endpoint protection, alerts and patch management • Manage our organization’s security configurations, automated pen testing platform and security training software The Skills You Need to Succeed: • Demonstrated experience with AI coding agents in production environments • 3+ years software engineering either front end or back end • 3+ years hands-on experience with Azure (VMs, App Services, networking, storage, identity) • 3+ years experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices • 3+ years experience with Azure DevOps and Azure Repos • 3+ years experience with GitHub • 3+ years experience with containerization • Ability to use Claude Code in a real codebase, including CLAUDE.md and skills authoring and MCP configuration — or comparable work with another agentic coding tool and a clear ability to transfer that experience • Understanding how agentic coding tools navigate codebases: file traversal and context windows • Security instincts specific to AI: understands the risk surface of giving agents tool access, recognizes prompt injection as an attack vector, and thinks about what adversaries can do with coding agents • Can communicate clearly with both engineers and non-technical teams — this role works across the full company • Strong scripting in Python • Knows Azure (VMs, App Services, storage, identity, containers, DevOps CI/CD pipelines) • Solid networking fundamentals: DNS, TCP/IP, firewalls, VPNs • Can manage Windows Server and Linux systems • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field—or equivalent practical experience Salary range: $110,000 - 140,000/year; Compensation is based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, relevant experience, skills, and internal equity.
