Purpose
We operate hundreds of Single Tenant (ST) and Multi Tenant (MT) deployments for customers across Azure, each with their own servers, database, and storage.
This role exists to keep every deployment healthy, performant, and reliable — resolving customer-specific issues, ensuring fleet-wide uptime, and building automation to prevent problems before they happen.
You will be the bridge between support, engineering, and cloud operations:
* Investigating and fixing complex application and infrastructure issues.
* Monitoring capacity, performance, and error budgets across all deployments.

* Maintain uptime, performance, and scalability across all ST and MT deployments.
* Define and track service-level objectives (SLOs) and error budgets for different environment types.
* Perform capacity planning for servers, databases, and storage, scaling resources before issues occur.
* Identify systemic patterns causing downtime and implement fixes at scale.
3. Automation & Tooling
* Build scripts and automation (PowerShell, C#, Azure Functions, Logic Apps) to detect and remediate common application or infrastructure issues.
* Automate environment health checks and reporting.
* Develop self-healing routines for recurring problems.
4. Monitoring & Reporting
* Implement and maintain Azure Monitor / Application Insights / Log Analytics dashboards for:
* Environment uptime & performance
* SLA compliance & error budget tracking
* Incident trends and recurring issue analysis
* Provide regular reliability reports and improvement recommendations to stakeholders.
5. Continuous Improvement & Knowledge Sharing
* Feed recurring issues and systemic risks into the continuous improvement programme.
* Contribute to post-incident reviews with actionable follow-ups.
* Maintain troubleshooting guides and technical runbooks for common issues.
Success Measures (KPIs)
* Uptime: ≥ target SLO % for ST and MT environments.
* Error Budget Burn Rate: Maintain within agreed thresholds.
* Incident Metrics:
* Reduce MTTR for P1/P2 incidents.
* Reduce recurrence rate of common issues.
* Automation Impact:
* Number of recurring issues automated/self-healed.
* Hours saved through automation vs manual intervention.
* Customer Impact:
