DevOps Engineer - GitHub

Do you want to join our team of GitHub geeks and get one step ahead in transforming how organizations build software? At Xebia Microsoft Services we are proud to be GitHub Partner of the Year, working with Microsoft MVP’s and GitHub Stars, and keeping short lines with the GitHub product teams. That means you get to work on some of the coolest GitHub projects out there. You will help clients migrate, optimize developer workflows, and turn complex processes into automated value streams. Think less firefighting and more innovation.  

And don’t worry, you do not need to know everything about GitHub on day one. What matters most is your DevOps DNA. You understand how modern engineering culture works, and you know that tools are only powerful when people actually use them well.

Responsibilities

As a GitHub Consultant you help organizations get the most out of GitHub, combining technical expertise with consultancy skills. You are a trusted advisor who helps clients embrace modern DevOps practices and make GitHub the backbone of their software delivery. Sometimes that means rolling up your sleeves to build workflows and pipelines. Other times it means translating business challenges into technical solutions and guiding teams through change. You will collaborate across teams to make sure GitHub becomes an integrated way of working rather than just a platform. 

This includes:

• Onboarding and Configuration: guide clients on their GitHub journey, from environment setup and initial onboarding to adoption 

• Pipeline Implementation: build and optimize CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, including advanced setups such as AKS self-hosted runners and Azure private networking 

• Migration: support complex repository and pipeline migrations, using automation and tools like GitHub Advanced Implementations (GAI) to streamline the process 

• Governance and Automation: enhance the platform with governance frameworks, reusable workflow templates, and onboarding processes that ensure consistency and scalability 

• Collaboration with GitHub: work closely with GitHub product teams and translate new features and best practices into client solutions 

• Knowledge Sharing: conduct workshops, Q&A sessions, and hands-on garage days to transfer knowledge and empower client teams
