We’re partnering with a long-established, Australia based business that’s setting up its Azure Dev Ops capability from scratch.
They need an experienced engineer to design and build a secure foundation, with security baked in from day one rather than bolted on later.
It’s a focused 4 week engagement, so we’re looking for someone who’s done this before, can make sound architectural calls quickly and leave behind something the internal team can confidently run with.
- What you’ll be doing
- Designing and standing up the Azure Dev Ops organisation, projects, repos and branching strategy
- Building CI/CD pipelines in YAML with reusable templates and sensible release gates
- Establishing Infrastructure as Code patterns for repeatable, secure deployments
- Setting up identity and access from the start: Entra ID, RBAC, service connections and least privilege
- Implementing secrets management, security scanning and policy guardrails in the pipeline
- Configuring baseline security monitoring and alerting across the Azure environment
- Documenting the platform and handing over cleanly so the team can own it
- What you’ll bring
- Proven experience building Azure Dev Ops environments from the ground up, not just maintaining them
- Strong Sec Ops background in Azure, including Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, Key Vault and Azure Policy
- Hands-on Infrastructure as Code skills (Bicep, ARM or Terraform)
- Experience integrating security tooling into pipelines (SAST, dependency scanning, secret detection)
- The confidence to make design decisions and explain the reasoning to a non-specialist audience
- A track record of delivering in short, outcome-focused contracts
Why this one?
Greenfield work is rare.
There’s no legacy to untangle and no technical debt to inherit, just a clean slate and a team that wants it done properly.
You’ll set the standards they build on for years to come.
