About the Role
Step into a pivotal role where cloud networking meets automation excellence. As a Senior Cloud Network Architect, you will shape, standardize, and deliver secure, scalable Azure networking solutions across Canada. This position combines architectural leadership with hands-on DevOps execution—empowering you to define enterprise guardrails while building reusable, production-ready network platforms that drive innovation and reliability at scale.

Your impact includes defining, documenting, and governing Azure networking reference architectures, standards, guardrails, and reusable patterns such as segmentation, routing, DNS, private access, and network security. You will provide architectural review and formal sign-off on Azure network designs, ensuring consistency, scalability, resiliency, and security alignment, including Zero Trust principles.

You will architect and maintain global connectivity patterns and cloud connectivity services supporting enterprise and hybrid environments, develop and maintain Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for cloud network provisioning, and champion reusable modules for scalable, self-service networking. Integration of network provisioning into CI/CD workflows, including state management, drift detection, and automated validation to enforce consistency, will be key responsibilities.

Additional duties include implementing automated baseline checks, compliance controls, configuration consistency, and telemetry pipelines for network services; implementing hub-spoke and Virtual WAN architectures across Azure regions; enabling secure external and internal routing patterns using Azure Front Door and Azure Firewall technologies; troubleshooting complex cloud and hybrid network issues; and establishing monitoring, alerting, dashboards, and security telemetry using Azure Monitor and Log Analytics.

You will support incident response, runbooks, and change/release coordination for network and platform services, validate resiliency, disaster recovery, and continuity plans through hands-on testing and operational readiness practices, and drive continuous improvement through automation and standardization to reduce lead times and improve reliability.

Collaboration with Security, Identity, and Platform Architecture teams to evolve guardrails and enable secure delivery, mentoring engineers, and contributing to roadmap development for scalable, reusable network platform services are also essential aspects of this role.

Join a global team of ambitious, passionate, and innovative professionals dedicated to making a positive impact in communities worldwide.
