Job Description

Senior Azure DevOps Engineer

Manchester / Hybrid
£70,000

Four development teams. Different branching strategies, different release processes and too much engineering time spent troubleshooting delivery issues.

You’ll come in to change that.

This is a senior Azure DevOps role with genuine ownership. You’ll design and build the processes, pipelines and standards that bring development teams onto a consistent way of working.

The foundations are there, but the CI/CD environment needs maturing. You’ll assess what currently exists, define what good looks like and build the templates and processes to take it forward.

What you’ll own

  * 

    Designing and building Azure DevOps pipelines using YAML

  * 

    Creating a consistent branching strategy across multiple development teams

  * 

    Improving and standardising release management processes

  * 

    Consolidating delivery tooling and processes within Azure DevOps

  * 

    Building reusable pipeline templates and deployment standards

  * 

    Developing mature CI/CD practices across development, test and production

  * 

    Working with engineering teams to implement and follow those standards

  * 

    Supporting teams through the transition and resolving pipeline and release issues

  * 

    Taking ownership from initial design through to implementation and continuous improvement

What we need

  * 

    Strong commercial experience working specifically with Azure DevOps

  * 

    Deep hands-on experience designing and building YAML pipelines

  * 

    Experience creating CI/CD processes from scratch or significantly improving immature environments

  * 

    Strong understanding of branching strategies and release management

  * 

    Good knowledge of Azure services and cloud-based delivery environments

  * 

    Experience creating reusable templates and consistent engineering standards

  * 

    Evidence of owning DevOps processes across multiple development teams

  * 

    The confidence to influence software engineers and introduce new ways of working

  * 

    A practical approach that balances technical quality with what teams can actually adopt

Experience with Bicep, Terraform or wider infrastructure tooling would be useful, but it isn’t the main focus.

We’re looking for someone whose experience is centred on Azure DevOps rather than a broad Platform Engineering or SRE remit. You’ll be the person setting the direction, building the foundations and making delivery easier for every engineering team
