Technical Team Leader DevOps & DevSecOps (English)

You will lead a technical pod of full-stack DevOps/DevSecOps engineers while staying hands-on in the code the architecture and the pipelines. This is a player-coach role: you set technical direction across the stack run design and code reviews unblock the team and double as the project manager for the engagement. You are the single point of accountability for what the pod ships and how it ships.

Responsibilities

Technical Leadership

• Own end-to-end architecture across infrastructure CI/CD and application layers for cloud portal workloads on Azure and GCP.
• Drive systems-level design: trade-off analysis reference architectures reusable Terraform/Ansible/Helm patterns and platform conventions the team builds against.
• Run code reviews and design reviews. Set the quality bar and the definition of done.
• Stay hands-on: contribute IaC modules pipeline logic and application code as needed. Expect roughly 40-60% individual contribution alongside leadership.
• Champion AI-first development practices across the pod: model-assisted coding prompt and context discipline agentic workflows in IDEs and CI and review of AI-generated output for security and correctness.

Delivery & Project Management

• Run the pod as project manager: sprint planning standups retrospectives status reporting to BETSOL and client stakeholders.
• Maintain the backlog sequence work against client priorities and surface risks early.
• Lead release management change control and post-incident reviews.
