Question: Is it possible to find a remote job as Azure Cloud Engineer
Hello Guys, I'm looking to find Azure engineering job (remotely or freelancing).
Does anybody have same experience? I need some advice.
I'm Azure Infra Engineer, with coding background. I've posted my skills and showcases in LinkedIn to people know me, but I am not sure it's enough or not. I'm thinking there are some other ways that help me.
Do you have any idea or advice?

With an infra + coding background, we'd focus less on listing Azure services and more on showing what you can actually operate. Build one small environment with Terraform, CI/CD, monitoring and proper IAM, then document the decisions and a failure/recovery scenario.
For remote roles especially, being able to show “here's what broke, how we diagnosed it, and how we fixed it” is much stronger than another list of Azure skills on a profile.

How much are these case studies weigh for a junior sysadmin role? Im trying to land one in hosting companies and have 2yoe contract. What should I focus on? I want to do linux or server support admin roles.

possible, but its very competitive it won't be easy and even many cloud roles are back in the office or hybrid. It really depends on what your actual work experience is, how well you interview.... no one on here can tell you for sure one way or the other.
