Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize Azure environments for performance, cost, and security posture using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Microsoft Sentinel, and Defender for Cloud.
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to program engineers on Azure best practices and federal cloud compliance requirements.
