Search / evaluation criteria highlighted by the hiring manager
Non-negotiable technical spine (both roles)
- Azure Stack Hub and Azure Stack Edge real operational exposure, not slideware
- Azure Local / Azure Stack HCI
- Azure Arc
- Hybrid networking + Azure networking
- Identity (Entra ID, AD FS in disconnected mode)
- Compute / storage / backup / DR
- PowerShell debugging someone else's migration workflows, not just writing scripts
- Migration mechanics: readiness assessment, dependency checks, cutover, rollback/runback, post-migration validation
Strong signals
- Actually operated an ASH stamp mentions PEP/ERCS, scale units, update packages, marketplace syndication, capacity/N 1 planning, Test-AzureStack, Get-AzureStackLog
- ASE Pro/Pro GPU field deployments, not just "familiar with"
- Named Azure Local / HCI cluster deployments with Arc onboarding
- Migration/cutover war stories with rollback executed
- Worked alongside Microsoft engineering/support (escalation, pilot/TAP programs)
- Enterprise customer-facing delivery across time zones
- Only public Azure cloud migration (Azure Migrate, lift-and-shift VMware Azure) with no Stack Hub/Edge exposure this is the most common false positive
- Pure VMware or on-prem Hyper-V admin with Azure certs but no hybrid/edge platform work
- "Azure Stack" listed once in a skills blob with nothing in the experience bullets
- Script authors only, with no evidence of debugging/validating others' automation
- Backend-only engineers with no customer-facing track record 30% of this job is workshops and exec conversations
- Lead: look for design authority, sequencing/dependency planning across a portfolio of customers, RCA ownership, exec presence, and reusable-artifact creation.
- Engineer: look for execution volume how many migrations, how many environments, depth in log analysis and troubleshooting.
JD:
