You will lead end-to-end migrations from complex DevSecOps environments (e.g., IBM ELM/DOORS NG, GitLab, TFS/Jenkins, SmartBear) to Azure DevOps and GitHub. The role focuses on ensuring data integrity, full traceability, and a seamless cutover at scale. You'll automate where it matters most, establish governance and security controls, and guide engineering workstreams through assessment, pilot, rollout, and stabilization phases.

Responsibilities

Design and execute migration strategies for repositories, work items, pipelines, test assets, and artifacts, including validation, rollback plans, and evidence capture.
Build automation scripts and pipelines for repository history transfers, work item imports, and CI/CD conversions (Jenkins/TFSAzure Pipelines/GitHub Actions), incorporating secret management and approval workflows. Maintain traceability across requirements, tests, commits, builds, and releases, aligned with aviation and regulatory standards (e.g., DO?278/ED?109A), supported by audit-ready logs. Implement identity and security models such as SSO and RBAC across Azure DevOps, GitHub, and artifact ecosystems (e.g., JFrog), and enforce code scanning and secret scanning policies. Coordinate multi-team migrations in parallel waves, baseline KPIs, eliminate bottlenecks, and optimize pipeline templates for efficiency. Collaborate with platform, security, PMO, and business teams to communicate risks, trade-offs (ADO vs GitHub), and deliver clear cutover plans.

security and compliance in regulated environments

, including evidence capture, four-eyes reviews, and embedded change approvals in pipelines. Expertise in governance practices such as

organizational structuring, project and team setup, permissioning, repository strategies (monorepo vs multi), and branch/PR policies.

Preferred Experience

Background in leading multi-team (10-15 teams) or multi-application migration programs.
