DevOps Engineer

Who are Valcon:

Valcon is a north-western European consulting, technology and data company based in the UK, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, and even Croatia.

Valcon is private equity backed and in recent years has bought together some of the most exiting companies from these companies to form one of the brightest and most exciting consultancies around.

We’re one of the fastest growing companies across Europe and have no plans to stop.

What do we do:

Our mission is to combine premium consulting with deep technology and data knowledge to add value to our clients.

Overview of Technology Practice:

We’re at the forefront of empowering the future of work, helping organisations of all sizes achieve their goals. For large enterprises, we eliminate manual labour through automation and intelligent tools, boosting knowledge worker productivity. Across the board, we build high-quality, performant and user-friendly solutions that leverage the latest technologies to deliver exceptional results for both scale-ups and large companies.

Our Technology Practice has 5 capabilities:

• IT Architecture
• Cloud Engineering
• Software Engineering
• Intelligent Process Automation
• Quality Management

At Valcon, we are driven by technology and innovation, helping clients transform their businesses through cutting-edge solutions. Our Technology Practice is expanding, and we are looking for a Senior Azure DevOps Engineer who has worked in a technology consultancy previously with a strong focus on build and development rather than infrastructure. While our infrastructure is well-established, we need someone who can enhance development workflows, optimise CI/CD pipelines, and drive best practices in DevOps automation. If you have hands-on experience migrating to Azure DevOps and can demonstrate the value it brings, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines to optimise the software development lifecycle.
• Work closely with development teams to streamline build and deployment processes.
• Migrate and optimise legacy build systems to Azure DevOps.
• Automate and improve release management, version control, and testing workflows.
• Ensure high availability, performance, and scalability of build environments.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve development efficiency and DevOps best practices.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior DevOps engineers.

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong hands-on experience with Azure DevOps (including CI/CD pipelines, release management, and automation tools).
• Expertise in SQL and experience working with database deployments in a DevOps environment.
• Experience with TFS (Team Foundation Server) and its migration to Azure DevOps.
• Proven experience in automating software development and deployment processes.
• Strong scripting skills in PowerShell, Bash, or Python.
• Understanding of Git workflows and experience managing repositories.
• Experience with containerisation (Docker/Kubernetes) is a plus.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, agile environment.

We offer you:

The opportunity to work in a diverse and international environment with an informal culture, with a flat hierarchy, in which we cooperate across business areas and levels. We care about results, first and foremost. We care about people and how we can constantly challenge each other to become better. Your background is less important to us than your ability to create results, to create change. We prize excellence and ingenuity but know that both have to be grounded in reality. The reality of making our clients ready for the future.
