Role Overview

The Azure DevOps Engineer serves as the primary hands-on implementation resource leading discovery, pipeline re-registration, platform configuration, and migration execution within Azure DevOps Services. This role is responsible for validating existing inventories, scripting API automations, configuring self-hosted agent pools, and executing cutover activities while ensuring seamless integration across third-party build tools and extensions.

Key Responsibilities

Discovery, Inventory & Automation

Collect and validate comprehensive inventories of projects, repositories, pipelines, agent pools, users, groups, extensions, and tool integrations.
Utilize Azure DevOps REST APIs, PowerShell, Azure CLI, or Python scripting to support automated discovery, validation, configuration, and audit evidence collection.
Support user, group, permission, and identity mapping across Azure DevOps organizations.

Pipeline & Agent Configuration

Analyze, update, and re-register multi-stage YAML pipelines across Azure Repos.
Configure, provision, and re-register self-hosted build agents and custom agent pools across Windows and Linux environments.
Validate and configure pipeline dependencies, including variable groups, secure files, service connections, credentials, certificates, and extensions.

Testing, Migration & Troubleshooting

Test and validate integrations with external systems, including JFrog Artifactory connectivity and MATLAB/Simulink extension functionality.
Execute structured test cases, pipeline validations, migration rehearsals, and production cutover activities.
Troubleshoot and resolve pipeline execution errors, authentication issues, build agent offline states, and integration failures.

Documentation & Stabilization

Execute migration tasks accurately from established technical runbooks and standard operating procedures.
Maintain detailed technical documentation, migration evidence, issue logs, and system configuration records.
Provide post-migration hypercare stabilization, troubleshooting support, and knowledge transfer to internal engineering teams.

Required Qualifications

5 or more years of hands-on DevOps engineering experience with a strong focus on Azure DevOps Services.
3 or more years of experience building, configuring, and troubleshooting Azure Repos and YAML-based CI/CD pipelines.
Proven experience installing, configuring, and managing self-hosted build agents and agent pools.
Strong automation and scripting skills using PowerShell, Azure CLI, Python, or Azure DevOps REST APIs.
In-depth working knowledge of Azure DevOps administrative settings, including user/group permissions, variable groups, secure files, service connections, and marketplace extensions.
Demonstrated ability to execute structured test plans, analyze failure logs, and work independently from detailed migration runbooks.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience configuring and integrating JFrog Artifactory with Azure DevOps pipelines.
Experience supporting MATLAB / Simulink extensions and embedded software build toolchains.
Hands-on experience managing Windows and Linux build servers, proxy configurations, SSL/TLS certificates, and private network routing.
Prior consulting or migration execution experience in large-scale enterprise environments.

Core Skills & Attributes

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a deep understanding of CI/CD pipeline mechanics.
Methodical, detail-oriented approach to executing migrations, evidence collection, and issue tracking.
Clear written and verbal communication skills for cross-functional collaboration and knowledge sharing.
Ability to self-direct and deliver high-quality implementation work within project timelines.

This is a remote position.
