Project overview

Our client is a financial services player subject to DORA. Its IT system is entirely on Microsoft Azure and its operation is entrusted to IT service providers. Following the departure of its Lead Developer, they are looking for a senior LeadTech DevOps to take over the DevOps and platform function, ensure continuity, and then support the reorganization until the second quarter of 2027.
