Job description


Azure DevOps (ADO) practitioner /Azure DevOps Technical Lead
Location: Seattle, WA (Remote/Local-PST Times) (remote)
Duration: 6 to 12 Months

Role Summary
We are looking for a strong Azure DevOps (ADO) practitioner to partner closely with the FD&E leadership team during the transition to a new centralized Azure DevOps instance. This role is not a development position. Instead, the individual will act as a trusted ADO expert and advisor, helping ensure ADO is configured correctly to support portfolio visibility, standard reporting, and future application‐based portfolio management.
The person will work side‐by‐side with the project lead, answer day‐to‐day questions, validate feasibility of requirements, and help ensure teams are onboarded to ADO in alignment with Azure standard definitions and best practices—without pulling time away from delivery teams.

Key Responsibilities
  • Serve as a subject‐matter expert on Azure DevOps, including structure, standards, and best practices
  • Partner closely with the project lead to translate portfolio and reporting needs into ADO‐ready configurations
  • Provide guidance on ADO work item hierarchy, fields, processes, queries, and dashboards
  • Help set up and validate ADO dashboards and native reporting (no Power BI)
  • Advise on Service Tree alignment and how ADO data should be structured to support it
  • Support TPM onboarding to ADO, ensuring teams follow defined standards and conventions
  • Answer frequent and sometimes basic ADO questions with patience and clarity
  • Act as a bridge between portfolio requirements and what ADO can realistically support
  • Ensure ADO is set up in a way that enables future portfolio management via a custom application

Required Skills & Experience
  • Strong, hands‐on experience with Azure DevOps (ADO)
  • Deep understanding of ADO structure, capabilities, and limitations
  • Experience building and maintaining ADO dashboards, queries, and views
  • Familiarity with Service Tree concepts and how engineering work maps to services
  • Understanding of Azure / Microsoft standard definitions and governance models
  • Excellent spoken and written English communication skills
  • Ability to collaborate closely with TPMs, portfolio leads, and stakeholders
  • Comfortable acting as an advisor rather than an executor or developer

Nice to Have
  • Prior experience working in Microsoft FD&E / FDNE environments
  • Background as a TPM, program manager, or ADO administrator
  • Curiosity and interest in Copilot / AI‐assisted tooling
  • Experience supporting large‐scale ADO rollouts or migrations
