Professional Experience

Senior Site Reliability Engineer June 2021 – Present
Atlassian Sydney, Australia
  • Optimized AKS cluster performance by implementing KEDA for event-driven autoscaling, reducing compute overhead by 30% during off-peak hours for Jira Service Management.
  • Architected a multi-region failover strategy using Azure Front Door and Traffic Manager, improving global availability from 99.9% to 99.99% for critical microservices.
  • Automated the provisioning of 50+ development environments using Terraform and Azure DevOps, cutting developer onboarding time from 3 days to under 20 minutes.
Software Engineer (Cloud Platform) July 2018 – May 2021
Uber San Francisco, CA
  • Migrated a high-throughput data processing pipeline from on-premises servers to Azure Functions and Event Hubs, handling 500k+ events per second with 40% lower operational costs.
  • Reduced P99 database latency by 120ms by redesigning CosmosDB partitioning keys and implementing a Redis cache layer for frequently accessed user metadata.

Projects

Azure Governance Engine Python, Azure Policy, Bicep
  • Developed an open-source tool that scans Azure subscriptions for non-compliant resources, identifying over $5,000 in monthly orphaned disk waste for early adopters.

How to Write High-Impact Azure Bullets

Learn to move past basic cloud administration and show how your infrastructure choices drive business outcomes.

❌ Vague/Generic

Responsible for managing Azure cloud resources and keeping things running.

✓ Impact-Focused

Maintained 99.95% uptime for production workloads by implementing automated health probes and self-healing logic in Azure App Service.

Copied!

Why it works: It defines success through a specific metric (99.95%) and mentions the exact Azure tool used to achieve it.

❌ Task-Focused

Moved company databases to the Azure cloud environment.

✓ Results-Driven

Led the migration of 4TB of SQL Server data to Azure SQL Managed Instance with zero downtime using Data Migration Service (DMS).

Copied!

Why it works: It quantifies the scale (4TB) and highlights a critical constraint (zero downtime) that managers care about.

❌ No Metrics

Used Terraform to set up cloud infrastructure for several teams.

✓ Quantified Achievement

Standardized infrastructure across 12 teams by creating reusable Terraform modules, reducing configuration drift incidents by 65%.

Copied!

Why it works: It shows organizational impact (12 teams) and a clear reduction in a negative outcome (configuration drift).

❌ Passive Voice

Azure costs were monitored and reduced where possible.

✓ Action-Oriented

Eliminated $12k/month in unnecessary spend by identifying and deleting unattached managed disks and right-sizing over-provisioned VMs.

Copied!

Why it works: It starts with a strong verb and provides a specific dollar amount, showing immediate business value.

Common Questions on Azure Career Strategy

Practical advice on certifications, tool choice, and showing seniority on your resume.

Should I list every Azure service I have touched?

No. Avoid the 'keyword soup' approach. Focus on the core pillars: Compute (AKS, Functions), Data (CosmosDB, SQL), and Infrastructure (Terraform, Bicep). Listing 40 services makes it look like you've only used the portal, not built real systems.

How important are Azure certifications on a resume?

They help junior to mid-level engineers pass initial HR screens. However, for senior roles, your experience with Terraform or handling scale at production is much more valuable than an AZ-104 or AZ-305 badge.

What is the most important skill for an Azure-focused role right now?

Infrastructure as Code (IaC). If you aren't mentioning Terraform or Bicep, hiring managers will assume you are clicking buttons in the Azure Portal, which isn't scalable for modern engineering teams.

Can I use an AWS-style format for an Azure role?

The structure remains the same—clean, single-column, and impact-heavy. Just ensure you use the correct Azure terminology (e.g., 'Resource Groups' instead of 'Stacks', 'Managed Identity' instead of 'IAM Roles').

What is a common mistake on Azure resumes?

Focusing too much on 'administration' and not enough on 'engineering'. Don't just say you created VMs; talk about how you automated the networking, security, and monitoring for those VMs.

How do I show I understand cloud costs?

Include bullets about 'right-sizing', 'Spot instances', or 'Reserved Instances'. Mentioning specific dollar amounts saved is the fastest way to get an interview for a senior cloud position.
