We are seeking a skilled and motivated Lead DevOps Engineer to design, implement, and manage scalable CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure. This is a senior individual contributor role – you will operate with a high degree of autonomy, working as a trusted expert alongside our engineering teams rather than as a people manager. Beyond pipeline ownership, you will act as a force multiplier for a broader engineering organisation , collaborating closely with development, QA, platform, operations, and security teams to build robust, secure, and efficient delivery pipelines and cloud operations. The role demands deep engineering and DevOps expertise , combined with a genuine passion for automation and continuous improvement.
WHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
Design, implement, review and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices, independently driving improvements from end to end.
Architect and manage cloud infrastructure using Azure Bicep, ensuring high availability, scalability, and security of production systems.
This is a hybrid role that sits at the intersection of software engineering and DevOps — we care deeply about both. You don’t need to be an expert in everything, but we expect genuine strength in many of the areas below and a curiosity to keep growing.
Strong programming skills, with hands-on experience in C# .NET or equivalent.
6 - 8 years of combined experience in DevOps and software development, with a strong foundation in both disciplines.
Advanced scripting skills — PowerShell in particular, as well as Bash and/or Python.
Proficient with version control — Git or equivalent.
Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Computer Science , Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience.
Extensive practical experience with Azure and Azure DevOps — including Azure Cloud services, architecture, and production-grade environment management.
Strong Kubernetes skills - experience with AKS or deploying, managing, and troubleshooting production Kubernetes clusters.
Experience with CI/CD tools such as TeamCity, Azure Pipelines, and GitHub Actions.
Experience with large-scale .NET codebases is a strong plus — our codebase spans ~1 million lines of code across ~300 projects.
Experience building or operating production-grade CD pipelines, with knowledge of safe deployment strategies such as blue/green deployments, phased/canary rollouts, and automated rollback.
Familiarity with security tools and practices in CI/CD pipelines.
Experience with Azure B2C/B2B.
Familiarity with monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or Azure Monitor.
Azure certifications (e.g., AZ-400, AZ-104, AZ-305) are a welcome bonus, but not a requirement.
Competitive salary, bonus scheme, and pension are essential for any work agreement. However, at SimCorp , we believe we can offer more. Therefore, in addition to the traditional benefit scheme, we provide an excellent work-life balance: flexible work hours , a hybrid workplace model. On top of that, we have IP sprints; where you have 3 weeks per quarter to spend on mastering your skills as well as contributing to the company development. There is never just only one route — we practice an individual approach to professional development to support the direction you want to take.
