  • Conduct maturity assessments and help organisations identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Design practical roadmaps that support engineering transformation and continuous improvement.
  • Lead the implementation of modern engineering practices, tools, and operating models.
  • Define DevOps and DevSecOps standards, patterns, and reference architectures.
  • Support project teams throughout the delivery lifecycle, from mobilisation through to deployment and adoption.
  • Mentor engineers and delivery teams, helping to build capability and confidence.
  • Contribute to solution development, proposals, and client presentations.
  • Build trusted relationships with stakeholders across technology and business teams.

HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL NEED

You may bring experience in:

  • DevOps, DevSecOps, Platform Engineering, or Cloud Engineering.
  • Engineering strategy and transformation.
  • CI/CD implementation and automation practices.
  • Cloud infrastructure and Infrastructure as Code.
  • Modern software delivery methodologies.
  • DevSecOps and security-by-design approaches.
  • Engineering governance, standards, and quality practices.
  • Technical leadership and team mentoring.

**Experience with technologies such as Azure, AWS, GCP, Terraform, Kubernetes, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Git, SonarQube, Artifactory, and security automation tools will be highly regarded.


Why Accenture?

You'll join a culture that values:

  • Collaboration over competition.
  • Learning and continuous development.
  • Flexible ways of working.
  • Diverse perspectives and inclusive leadership.
  • Career growth across consulting, engineering, architecture, security, and leadership pathways.
