The posting

Join a Challenger

At EQ, we're remaking banking so every Canadian gets ahead, every day. Serving nearly 4 million Canadians from coast to coast, we offer a wide variety of financial services from banking and lending, to trust and credit union solutions.

We've been at this since 1970, challenging the conventions of traditional banking with smarter, faster, and more connected financial experiences.

What's kept us moving? The people behind it all: challengers who ask better questions, push back on old assumptions, and look for a better way forward.

If you're driven to help reshape how banking works for Canadians and the businesses that power our economy, this could be your next big opportunity.

We can’t wait to get to know you!

As a Staff Cloud Engineer, you will serve as a senior technical expert supporting EQ Bank’s Microsoft cloud platforms with a focus on Power Platform (30%), Azure Cloud Engineering (30%), AKS and DevOps Enablement (20%), and Platform Process Improvement (20%). Reporting to the Director, Cloud Operations, you will design, implement, and improve reusable platform capabilities that empower both professional and citizen developers across the bank.

You will work hands-on with Azure services, PaaS workloads, Kubernetes, and DevOps toolchains, while also contributing to Power Platform governance and lifecycle enablement. As a technical leader, you’ll collaborate with engineering, security, operations, and business stakeholders to drive platform maturity, automation, scalability, and compliance across our cloud environments.

The Core Responsibilities!

  • Design, build, and optimize Azure platform components including App Services, Azure Functions, Key Vaults, and API Management.

  • Collaborate with architecture, security, and operations teams to ensure platforms meet SLAs, DR/RTO requirements, and compliance expectations.
  • Develop and maintain automation for Power Platform lifecycle management, including ALM pipelines and environment provisioning.
  • Implement data loss prevention (DLP) policies, app usage reporting, and licensing optimization for Power Platform components.
  • Collaborate with Governance and Security teams to establish safe, compliant citizen development frameworks.
  • Provide technical guidance to Power Platform users and support solution acceleration across the organization.
  • Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps to deploy containerized workloads into AKS.
  • Implement secure AKS architectures, including ingress, autoscaling, monitoring, and security controls.
  • Enable GitOps patterns and promote modern deployment practices in collaboration with product engineering teams.
  • Contribute to DevSecOps initiatives and embed security, performance, and resiliency into deployment pipelines.
  • Lead initiatives to improve cloud platform operational processes, including incident management, platform health, and self-service enablement.
  • Define platform engineering standards and reusable blueprints to reduce manual effort and increase team efficiency.
  • Contribute to FinOps and cost optimization practices through resource tagging, usage reporting, and automation.
  • Promote knowledge sharing and engineering excellence across teams through documentation, workshops, and reusable patterns.

Let's Talk About You!

  • Post-Secondary education, preferably in the areas of Technology.
  • 8+ years of experience in Cloud Engineering, DevOps, or Site Reliability Engineering roles in enterprise environments.
  • Advanced knowledge of Microsoft Azure, PaaS services, Power Platform, and AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service).
  • Knowledge of GCP is considered an asset.
  • Strong experience with Terraform/Bicep, CI/CD pipelines, and Git-based workflows.
  • Strong background in cloud solution architecture and development of low‑level design documentation
  • Practical understanding of DevOps and SRE practices including automation, observability, and incident response.
  • Experience supporting Power Platform governance (DLP, ALM, monitoring) and citizen development enablement.
  • Skilled in designing secure and scalable AKS workloads and containerized platform services.
  • Excellent collaboration, documentation, and cross-functional communication skills.
  • Proficient in scripting languages (e.g., PowerShell, Bash) and YAML/JSON-based configurations.

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
