Description
ENVIRONMENT Our client is migrating from Azure DevOps to GitHub Enterprise as part of a larger platform modernisation. They are implementing GitHub Actions, infrastructure as code, automated security scanning, and proper environment management. They need a DevOps Engineer to build the CI/CD platform, the infrastructure automation, and the security tooling that makes fast, safe delivery possible.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Design and build CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions that become the standard for all teams
Implement infrastructure as code using Terraform or Bicep for all Azure resources
Automate environment provisioning so developers can spin up feature environments without filing tickets
Integrate security scanning into pipelines: SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, secret detection
Roll out GitHub Advanced Security and establish policies that actually get followed
Manage secrets properly with Azure Key Vault and ensure nothing sensitive ends up in repos
Create deployment strategies (blue-green, canary) that enable zero-downtime releases
Build automated rollback capabilities because things will go wrong and they need to recover fast
Maintain IIS configuration standards (yes, they still have Windows workloads)
Document pipeline patterns and create reusable templates that teams actually want to use
Migrate CI/CD pipelines from Azure Devops to GitHub Actions
Maintain a list of all CI/CD pipelines and their purpose
Maintain integrations to Static code analysis tools
REQUIREMENTS What You Bring
You've been the person responsible for CI/CD at a previous company. You know what works and what doesn't
5+ years in DevOps, platform engineering, or similar roles
Strong GitHub Actions experience (or Azure DevOps with willingness to transition)
Infrastructure as code fluency: Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates
Deep Azure knowledge across compute, networking, and security services
Scripting skills: PowerShell, Bash, and CLI tools
Understanding of .NET build and deployment processes
You believe security is everyone's job, not just the security team's
Education
Degree or Diploma in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
Relevant certifications in cloud platforms, DevOps, or infrastructure automation (Azure preferred) will be advantageous.
Equivalent practical experience in building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and cloud platforms will be considered.
Nice to Have
GitHub Advanced Security certification or deep experience
Kubernetes/AKS experience
GitOps patterns (Flux, ArgoCD)
Experience migrating from Azure DevOps to GitHub
Security certifications (AZ-500 or similar)
