This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who combines deep technical expertise with ownership, judgement and the ability to influence across multiple engineering and delivery teams. You won't simply be handed a backlog of DevOps tasks. We're looking for someone who can assess where we are today, identify the areas that will make the biggest difference, recommend practical improvements and then take those improvements through to implementation and adoption. Working closely with engineering teams, Architecture, Cyber Security, Delivery and operational support colleagues, you will help make our technology delivery more automated, secure, reliable and predictable. Main Responsibilities You will take senior technical ownership across our DevOps capability, including: * Designing, implementing and improving Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines, reusable YAML templates and deployment controls. * Driving greater adoption of Infrastructure as Code, using technologies such as Terraform. * Improving automation across build, release, environment provisioning and operational processes. * Developing and evolving practical DevOps standards, patterns and reusable engineering approaches. * Helping teams improve release quality, deployment reliability, rollback capability and operational readiness. * Strengthening monitoring, logging, alerting and observability across applications and platforms. * Embedding security into pipelines and cloud infrastructure, including secrets management, identity controls and automated security checks. * Identifying technical debt, manual processes and recurring operational issues and turning them into prioritised improvement opportunities. * Working across multiple teams to resolve dependencies and differing levels of DevOps maturity. * Coaching and enabling engineers so that good DevOps practice becomes embedded across our teams rather than dependent on one individual. * Translating agreed engineering priorities into a pragmatic, phased DevOps improvement roadmap and driving delivery against it. ## Related Videos - [The journey from developer to devops - what i've learnt along the way](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/238-the-journey-from-developer-to-devops-what-i-ve-learnt-along-the-way) - [Shifting Stress to Progress— Understanding DevOps to do DevOps Better](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/268-shifting-stress-to-progress-understanding-devops-to-do-devops-better) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [CI/CD with Github Actions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/856-ci-cd-with-github-actions) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Software Engineer Salary London](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/252-software-engineer-salary-london) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [DevOps Engineer Salary [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/203-devops-engineer-salary-2023) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Fullstack Developer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/251-fullstack-developer-salary-uk)
