Job description

We are seeking a release manager with strong Azure DevOps skills to join a project with a large insurance client.

What you will bring (Required):

• Strong experience with Azure DevOps YAML pipelines (build & release)
• Familiarity with classic (GUI-based) pipelines and migration to YAML
• General Azure DevOps administration — repos, artifacts, service connections, variable groups, environments
• Awareness of shift-left security practices in pipelines (e.g., secret scanning, dependency scanning)
• Hands-on experience provisioning and managing Azure resources using ARM templates, Bicep, or Terraform (willingness to learn Bicep if coming from Terraform)
• Working knowledge of key Azure services: AKS, Container Apps, App Services, Azure Functions, Application Gateways, Virtual Networks, Service Bus, Azure SQL / databases, Key Vault, App Configuration, API Management
• Understanding of networking concepts in Azure (VNets, subnets, NSGs, private endpoints)
• Understanding of Azure security fundamentals — RBAC, managed identities, secrets management (Key Vault)

Scripting & Automation

• Proficiency in PowerShell and/or Bash for automation and operational scripting
• Familiarity with Python is a plus

Monitoring & Observability

• Experience with Azure Monitor tooling — Application Insights, Log Analytics Workspaces, Prometheus/Grafana
• Familiarity with Dynatrace or similar monitoring tools
• Familiarity with .NET 8+ ecosystem — Web APIs, microservices, Entity Framework
• Enough understanding of .NET application patterns to effectively support and enable application development teams (not expected to be a full-time .NET developer)
• Experience building and maintaining Docker images and container-based deployments

  What you will bring (Preferred):

  • Experience working with or supporting Kubernetes-based workloads (AKS)
  • Exposure to IaC abstraction tools (like in-house tooling that wraps ARM/Bicep)
  • Experience in a platform/enablement team model — building and maintaining shared infrastructure for multiple application teams
  • Strong communicator who can effectively bridge infrastructure teams and application development teams — comfortable translating between both worlds
  • Self-starter who can identify work, prioritize, and drive tasks forward with minimal direction (team operates without a dedicated Product Owner)
  • Collaborative mindset — small team environment where everyone contributes across responsibilities
