About Us:

Where elite tech talent meets world-class opportunities!

At Xenon7, we work with leading enterprises and innovative startups on exciting, cutting-edge projects that leverage the latest technologies across various domains of IT including Data, Web, Infrastructure, AI, and many others. Our expertise in IT solutions development and on-demand resources allows us to partner with clients on transformative initiatives, driving innovation and business growth. Whether it's empowering global organizations or collaborating with trailblazing startups, we are committed to delivering advanced, impactful solutions that meet today’s most complex challenges.

About the Client:

Join one of Egypt’s premier financial institutions, renowned for its extensive suite of banking services, including Institutional Banking, Personal Banking, and Islamic Banking. With a global presence through over 50 branches and correspondents, we serve a diverse and dynamic clientele. As we embark on a groundbreaking digital transformation journey, we are committed to leveraging the latest technologies to establish a state-of-the-art data architecture that will redefine our performance and service delivery.

About the Role

We are seeking a seasoned Senior Azure Administrator with a powerful dual background in both Cloud and On-Premises infrastructure to join our elite Data & AI department. In the Egyptian banking sector, compliance and data residency require a sophisticated hybrid approach.

In this role, you won't just manage the cloud; you will be the critical bridge connecting our heavy on-premises data legacy systems (like enterprise data warehouses and local servers) with cutting-edge Azure environments. You will ensure seamless data pipelines, high availability, and airtight security across our entire hybrid data estate.

Key Responsibilities

  • Infrastructure Integration: Design, deploy, and maintain the connective tissue between our on-premises data centers and Azure.
  • Cloud Infrastructure Management for Data & AI: Provision, configure, and optimize enterprise-grade Azure resources tailored for data workloads, including Microsoft Fabric, Azure Databricks, Azure Data Factory, Synapse Analytics, and Azure Machine Learning environments.
  • On-Prem & Cloud Security Hardening: Enforce strict identity governance across hybrid environments by aligning on-premises Active Directory (AD) with Microsoft Entra ID. Manage secrets across environments and implement network security boundaries that satisfy Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) regulations.
  • Automation & Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Standardize deployment processes across both cloud and local infrastructure using Terraform or Azure Bicep, integrating them into CI/CD pipelines via Azure DevOps to support unified DataOps workflows.
  • Hybrid Disaster Recovery & Monitoring: Architect and test robust Backup and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) strategies that guarantee zero data loss across both local storage arrays and Azure Data Lakes, maintaining continuous visibility through unified monitoring tools.

Requirements

  • On-Premises Infrastructure (STRICT MUST): Deep, hands-on experience managing traditional on-premises enterprise data centers is non-negotiable. You must have a strong background in virtualization (VMware/Hyper-V), physical networking, storage area networks (SAN), and Windows/Linux server administration before or alongside your cloud career.
  • Professional Experience: 5+ years of total experience in IT infrastructure/system administration, with at least 3+ years of dedicated, hands-on experience specializing in Azure Cloud Administration within a complex, hybrid architecture.
  • Banking & Financial Sector Experience: Mandatory prior experience working inside a regulated bank or financial institution in Egypt, showing a clear understanding of CBE cloud governance, local data residency laws, and audit readiness.
  • Technical Mastery of Data Ecosystems: Proven familiarity with connecting cloud services to on-premises data repositories (such as SQL Server or Teradata). Solid knowledge of containerized environments (AKS/Docker) and enterprise data pipelines is highly advantageous.
  • Education & Elite Certifications: * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a relevant technical field.
  • Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) is required.
  • Preferred: Certifications reflecting hybrid/security expertise, such as Azure Stack Hub/Arc familiarity or Azure Security Engineer (AZ-500).

Soft Skills: Exceptional troubleshooting skills for complex hybrid routing or latency issues, a proactive mindset, and fluency in English.

Benefits

  • Attractive, market-leading salary package
  • Clear career advancement path with professional development opportunities

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • 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.
