Dev Ops Manager Azure

We are looking for an experienced Senior DevOps Engineer to support production readiness and deployment of an Agentic Executive Scorecard. The client already operates a proven CI/CD process so this is a deliberately specialist role rather than a traditional end-to-end DevOps position: the primary focus is defining and implementing how the application itself is deployed most likely to an Azure Container App or a Databricks App - and ensuring its microservice-style components are packaged deployed monitored and operated reliably within the clients existing platform CI/CD and governance standards. The ideal candidate has strong hands-on experience developing and deploying containerised microservice-type applications and is comfortable integrating into an established enterprise CI/CD pipeline rather than building one from scratch.

Responsibilities

• Define and implement the deployment architecture for the application most likely an Azure Container App or a Databricks App in collaboration with the clients IT team
• Package and deploy microservice-style application components (APIs orchestration services front-end) as containerised workloads
• Integrate deployments into the clients existing CI/CD pipelines and promotion process rather than building CI/CD from scratch
• Configure environment separation scaling networking and secrets management appropriate to the chosen deployment target
• Implement production monitoring logging and alerting to take the solution reliably through Dev/Test/Prod
• Work closely with Software Engineers and the Lead AI Engineer to ensure backend orchestration and front-end components are deployment-ready
• Support non-functional testing release readiness and path-to-production activities alongside the QA Engineer
• Define operational controls for reliability performance and incident response once in production
• Support secure access patterns and role-based controls aligned with the clients platform and governance requirements
• Contribute to technical documentation handover materials and knowledge transfer for ongoing operations

Qualifications :

• Strong hands-on experience developing and deploying microservice-style containerised applications in production
• Direct experience deploying applications to Azure Container Apps and/or Databricks Apps (or comparable serverless/managed container platforms)
• Experience integrating application deployments into an existing enterprise CI/CD pipeline - this is not a build-from-scratch CI/CD role
• Solid understanding of containerisation (Docker) environment promotion and release management
• Experience with monitoring logging and alerting tooling for production services
• Working knowledge of secrets management RBAC and secure access patterns in Azure and/or Databricks
• Comfortable working directly with client IT/platform teams to align on deployment standards and constraints
• Familiarity with Git-based workflows and collaborative engineering practices
• Experience supporting production-grade AI or data platforms in enterprise environments
• Strong troubleshooting communication and stakeholder management skills

Additional Information :

• Familiarity with Databricks Apps specifically as distinct from general Databricks workloads
• Exposure to Azure DevOps as the consuming CI/CD platform
• Experience in FMCG/CPG or other regulated enterprise environments
• Exposure to QA automation and non-functional testing in cloud-native systems
