Azure DevOps Deployment Consultant

Location: Home / Milton Keynes (on site 2 days a week)

We are looking to recruit an Azure DevOps Deployment Consultant to join an established technology team on an initial 1 month contract with chances for extensions.

This is a hands‑on role focused on reviewing, improving and troubleshooting an existing Azure DevOps CI/CD environment, while also supporting and upskilling the internal development team.

This is not a Kubernetes or cloud infrastructure-focused DevOps role . The environment uses Azure DevOps tooling alongside predominantly on‑premise Windows/IIS application hosting, so we are looking for someone with strong application deployment and release management experience.

Key Responsibilities

• Review existing Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines and identify performance, reliability and configuration issues.
• Improve and optimise build, release and deployment pipelines.
• Support application deployments from Azure DevOps into predominantly on‑premise Windows Server/IIS environments.
• Troubleshoot failed or slow builds and deployments.
• Review existing code analysis and quality‑checking processes, including SonarQube.
• Investigate performance issues within SonarQube and its integration with deployment pipelines.
• Improve automation across build, test, release and deployment processes.
• Work closely with development teams to improve deployment practices and release reliability.
• Provide hands‑on coaching, knowledge transfer and technical guidance to the existing team.
• Maintain clear technical documentation, deployment procedures and runbooks.

Experience Required

• Strong hands‑on experience with Azure DevOps .
• Good knowledge of Azure Pipelines, YAML pipelines and release management .
• Experience deploying applications into on‑premise Windows Server and IIS environments .
• Strong understanding of CI/CD, application build and deployment processes.
• Experience troubleshooting and improving existing deployment pipelines.
• Experience with SonarQube would be highly desirable, although experience with similar static code analysis or code quality tools will also be considered.
• PowerShell or similar scripting and automation experience would be beneficial.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to work closely with developers and upskill internal teams.

We are particularly interested in candidates who have worked across hybrid environments , combining Azure DevOps tooling with traditional on‑premise application infrastructure rather than purely cloud‑native DevOps environments.
