Engineer II - Backend - Terraform Azure Providers

About the Terraform Azure Providers Team

HashiCorp’s Terraform is an open source project that enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve production infrastructure via the command line. It codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared among team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned. Terraform Providers are responsible for the interface and interactions between Terraform and the required APIs to interact with the infrastructure.

The Terraform Azure Providers team is primarily responsible for development and maintenance of the officially supported Azure Terraform providers (azurerm, azuread) in close collaboration with the Azure Terraform community, Microsoft, and HashiCorp’s customers. These providers act as the interface between Terraform and Azure requiring provider maintainers to have a high level of experience or knowledge of Azure.

In addition to the providers we maintain automation tooling, SDKs, and generating out own Go Azure SDKs..

In this role, you can expect to:

• Work with nearly every part of Azure in the process of extending, maintaining and enhancing the Azure providers
• Be responsible for stewardship of the Azure providers by supporting internal, community and partner contributors with guidance, supportive and constructive code reviews, documentation improvements, mentorship, and changes required to make our users successful
• Advocate and support improvements to Terraform Core and the Terraform plugin SDK
• Work closely with Microsoft to support a strategic relationship

You may be a good fit for our team if:

• You have operated and maintained production systems in Azure, or have extensive experience with the Microsoft Ecosystem
• You have a strong Software Engineering or DevOps background
• You have used Terraform & enjoy working with Go (previous Go experience is not required, Azure experience is more important)
• You have experience in education, customer support, or OSS community support applicable to the Terraform community
• You are familiar with infrastructure management concepts and tools (infrastructure as code, software defined networking, virtualization, and the tools used to operate and maintain related systems)
