Job Description

We’re supporting a respected UK institution with a specialist central IT team focused on enabling secure, compliant cloud deployments for research workloads – primarily on Microsoft Azure (with light AWS exposure). The collaborative team (6 people) is growing its DevOps capability and needs a hands-on lead engineer to own Azure DevOps practices, mentor colleagues transitioning to cloud, and guide researchers in building robust, governed deployments. This is a true leadership + technical ownership role: Azure DevOps SME, CI/CD pipeline architect, coaching/mentoring lead, and final escalation point for complex cloud/dev issues in a highly regulated environment.

Job Responsibility

  • Act as the go-to expert for Azure DevOps: pipelines (YAML), repos/branching policies, CI/CD automation, troubleshooting, and resource management
  • Design, build, and optimise pipelines to accelerate secure software delivery for research applications
  • Provide hands-on guidance to researchers/developers (often with limited pro dev experience) on writing fit-for-purpose, secure code – strong .NET/Python preferred
  • Coach and upskill the team on DevOps/cloud best practices, fostering collaboration and continuous improvement
  • Support core Azure services (Web Apps, Storage, SQL/PostgreSQL/MySQL databases, Monitor/logs, Entra ID App Registrations) and ensure compliance/security (OWASP, governed tenant standards)
  • Create/maintain technical documentation (designs, runbooks, guides) and contribute to quality processes
  • Troubleshoot incidents, drive root-cause fixes, monitor SLAs, and identify service enhancements
  • Collaborate across IT teams, represent in change/service meetings, and promote operational excellence

Requirements

  • Deep Azure DevOps expertise (pipelines, YAML, branching, automation, troubleshooting)
  • Solid development background, ideally .NET and/or Python, to assist with code quality/security
  • Proven coaching/mentoring skills in cloud/DevOps for mixed-experience teams
  • Experience designing/deploying/maintaining Azure services in enterprise/governed environments
  • Strong knowledge of Azure resources (Web Apps, Storage, Databases, Monitor, Entra ID) and log analysis
  • Excellent troubleshooting, documentation, and communication skills

Nice to have

  • Some AWS exposure
  • PowerShell/ARM/JSON scripting
  • Microsoft certifications (e.g., AZ-104, AZ-204)
  • ITIL Foundation or Agile experience
  • Background in higher education/research support

What we offer

10% achievable bonus
