Overview

The DevSecOps CoE relies on a suite of internal tools and automation to govern the organisation's DevOps platforms at scale. This includes dashboards that surface platform health and usage, license consumption trackers, automated governance scripts that enforce controls across Azure DevOps and GitHub, and scheduled health checks that keep everything running cleanly.

This role owns all of that. You will be the engineering lead and people manager for a small team of 2–3 backend/automation engineers, responsible for the architecture, delivery, and ongoing operation of the CoE's internal tooling. You design the backend systems, set up and manage the hosting infrastructure, mentor your engineers, and ensure the team ships reliably against a explicit roadmap.

This is a hands-on lead role — you are expected to contribute code, not just direct. You bring architecture thinking and engineering rigour to work that has historically been solved with ad hoc scripts, and you leave behind systems that are observable, maintainable, and actually documented.

Responsibilities




- Backend Architecture & Engineering
- Design the backend architecture for all internal CoE applications — API layer, data models, scheduler/worker patterns, storage, and integration points with Azure DevOps, GitHub, and enterprise systems.
- Write and review production-quality code in Python (primary) and/or Go or similar — the team's tooling stack, not prototype scripts.
- Establish engineering standards: code structure, testing approach, review process, dependency management, and deployment patterns that your team follows consistently.
- Lead the migration of legacy scripts into structured, maintainable services — proper error handling, logging, retry logic, and operational visibility built in from the start.
- Integrate with DevOps platform APIs (Azure DevOps REST, GitHub API, webhook events) to power automation and data pipelines.
- Infrastructure Setup & Ownership
- Set up and manage the hosting in
