Technical Lead - DevOps

Job Description

Technical Lead – DevOps (Hybrid, 4 Days Onsite – Bellevue, WA)

\n

Resourceful LLC is partnering with an IT consulting firm that serves enterprise and Fortune 1000 clients. We’re looking for a Technical Lead with a strong DevOps background to be the senior technical lead on a major client engagement in Bellevue.

\n

This is a leadership role for an experienced engineer who can lead a DevOps team, own release delivery, and be the trusted technical voice in front of the client. You’ll need to understand the code deeply enough to guide engineers and make sound architecture decisions. You’ll also need to be just as comfortable in a stakeholder meeting as you’d be in a technical conversation.

\n

\n

What you’ll do

\n

\n
• Lead and mentor a team of DevOps and software engineers, setting engineering standards and best practices.
\n
• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for client stakeholders, communicating status, risks, and recommendations clearly.
\n
• Own the end-to-end release lifecycle across multiple applications and environments, including planning, readiness, rollouts, and rollback.
\n
• Design and improve CI/CD pipelines and release automation in Azure DevOps.
\n
• Guide Kubernetes, containerization, and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Bicep, or ARM) practices on Azure.
\n
• Lead critical incident response, root-cause analysis, and long-term fixes.
\n
• Drive DevSecOps, observability, and continuous improvement across the delivery lifecycle.
\n

\n

\n

What you bring

\n

\n
• 8+ years in DevOps, platform, cloud, or software engineering, including 5+ years building CI/CD and release automation.
\n
• Strong hands-on experience with Azure DevOps and Kubernetes (required).
\n
• Proven experience as a technical lead: guiding teams, leading delivery, and working directly with clients or senior stakeholders.
\n
• Working knowledge of C#/.NET and modern application architectures (APIs, microservices, event-driven). Angular is a plus.
\n
• Experience supporting large-scale, mission-critical production environments.
\n
• Excellent communication skills and comfort working with onshore and offshore teams.
\n

\n

Nice to have

\n

\n
• Microsoft Certified: DevOps Engineer Expert or Azure Solutions Architect Expert
\n
• Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)
\n
• Consulting or client-services background
