NEP is building a modern Azure Databricks Lakehouse�and we�re looking for a hands-on DevOps Engineer to make it scalable, secure, and repeatable across environments. If you love Infrastructure as Code, clean pipelines, and automating everything from workspaces to jobs to cost controls, this role is for you.

What you�ll do:

• Build and maintain Terraform IaC for Azure + Databricks (workspaces, ADLS Gen2, ADF, Key Vault, networking, Unity Catalog, jobs, SQL Warehouses).

• Create a modular, reusable Terraform structure (modules + environment-specific configs) to support dev/prod consistency.

• Own remote state + drift detection (state locking, scheduled plans, reproducibility across environments).

• Design and run CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions) for infrastructure and Databricks deployments using Databricks Asset Bundles (DABs).

• Automate quality gates: linting + unit tests + notebook validation on PRs, with approval gates into production.

• Partner with security and platform stakeholders to implement RBAC, SCIM/Entra ID group management, and secret management using Key Vault + secret scopes.

• Implement monitoring, alerting, and FinOps controls for job health, data freshness SLAs, and cost anomalies (DBU + Azure budgets/tags).

What you�ll bring:

• Strong Terraform experience (Azure + Databricks providers), including modules, remote state, and multi-environment patterns.

• Proven CI/CD ownership (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions) with automated testing and release controls.

• Solid Azure platform knowledge: ADLS Gen2, Key Vault, ADF, Entra ID, VNets/subnets/NSGs, and cost management.

• Databricks administration experience: Unity Catalog, cluster policies, SQL Warehouses, secret scopes, and workspace configuration.

• Comfort building operational visibility: dashboards, alerts, and usage/cost tracking.

Nice to have:

• DLT, dbt, Power BI, Collibra, Airflow

• Databricks REST API automation

• Familiarity with data engineering patterns (PySpark/Delta/Medallion)

• Docker/Kubernetes exposure
