Efforts Solutions IT is looking for an experienced Senior DevOps Engineer – Azure Platform & Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to manage, secure, automate, and optimise an enterprise-grade Azure Data & AI platform.

We run a growing portfolio of AI agents in production, several built by external delivery partners. You will

observable and genuinely agentic.

Key responsibilities

1 Review partner deliverables end to end: requirements, architecture, code, prompts and deployed resources.

2 Check that deployed solutions match their approved design across environments.

3 Assess agent quality: reasoning vs scripted logic, tool design, guardrails, human-in-the-loop and error handling.

4 Refactor and enhance existing agents for quality, cost and performance.

5 Design and build new agents and multi-agent workflows on Azure AI Foundry and Microsoft Agent Framework.

6 Build retrieval and document-processing solutions with Azure AI Search and Document Intelligence.

7 Integrate agents with enterprise systems via Microsoft Graph, Teams, Logic Apps, Functions and APIs.

8 Set up evaluation, tracing and guardrails, including prompt-injection defence and data-privacy controls.

Work scope

• Review existing AI agent solutions built by partners: design, code, prompts and deployed resources.

• Remediate and enhance priority agents for quality, security, cost and performance.

• Design and build new AI agents on Azure.

• Introduce evaluation, tracing and guardrail practices.

Required qualifications

• 6+ years in software or ML engineering, including 2+ years shipping LLM / agentic applications to production.

• Strong Python and API design; able to read and fix others' code quickly.

• Hands-on Azure AI stack: Azure OpenAI, AI Foundry, AI Search, Document Intelligence.

• Agent frameworks: Microsoft Agent Framework / Semantic Kernel, LangChain / LangGraph; tool calling and MCP.

• Azure integration services: Functions, Logic Apps, App Service, Cosmos DB, Key Vault, managed identity.

• Proven experience reviewing third-party architectures and code, with structured, prioritised findings.

• Track record remediating and redeploying production AI agents.

• Experience building reusable agent templates or shared components.

• LLM evaluation harnesses, observability and AI security practices.

Preferred

• Microsoft Graph and Teams app development.

• Azure AI Engineer (AI-102) certification.
