Carlyle Group pairs wildly-collaborative engineering challenges with the autonomy to solve them, and we need an Azure Engineer to dive in. This is a freelance opportunity built for someone who wants to own outcomes, sharpen GitOps, and grow with a tight-knit team.
Key Responsibilities
- Watch Grafana error budgets and pump the brakes before Rochester, NY burns through them
- Scale Carlyle Group's PostgreSQL services from Rochester pilot to NY-wide rollout
- Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Microsoft Azure and Grafana
- Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging Microsoft Azure and Grafana
- Walk technology stakeholders through GitOps tradeoffs in language Carlyle Group execs grasp
- Support migration of on-premise services to cloud-native architecture
- Negotiate Microsoft Azure tradeoffs with product when Carlyle Group timelines and reality collide
What You'll Bring
- The patience to mentor without taking over the keyboard
- Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny
- Comfort defending a recommendation in front of skeptics
- Willingness to commute to Rochester, NY or work flexibly as needed
- Experience supporting cross-functional teams in a mid-level capacity
- Judgment seasoned by at least 3 years of real consequences
At Carlyle Group, our mission is to make technology simpler, faster, and more accessible for everyone in Rochester, NY and beyond. The fastest way to earn standing at Carlyle Group is to make a teammate's hard problem disappear.
Our $69,000 - $99,000 package travels with real mentorship, a growth ladder you can see, and the flexibility to clock in from Rochester or home.
The search is live, the seat is funded, and we are interviewing this week.
We'd rather hear from you sooner than later, so don't sit on this Azure Engineer opening.
