Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Azure DevOps (ADO) Consolidation & Portfolio Integration Lead to design, standardize, and consolidate our fragmented ecosystem of ADO boards, processes, and work item hierarchies into a single, scalable framework. 

 

The ideal candidate combines deep hands-on ADO administration expertise with strong program/process design skills and the ability to translate messy, team-specific configurations into a governed, enterprise-ready structure that supports portfolio-level reporting, roadmapping, and resource planning.

 

Board & Process Consolidation

  • Audit existing ADO organizations, projects, teams, and boards to catalog current-state configurations, custom fields, work item types, and workflows.
  • Identify redundancies, inconsistencies, and gaps across teams (e.g., differing definitions of "Epic," "Feature," "Story," inconsistent state models, non-standard swimlanes).
  • Design a unified, scalable work item hierarchy and process template (e.g., standardized Epic → Feature → Story → Task structure) that balances team-level flexibility with organizational consistency.

Governance & Standards

  • Define and document ADO configuration standards: naming conventions, area/iteration path structures, tagging taxonomies, custom field usage, and permission models.
  • Establish a governance model for ongoing board creation, template changes, and access management to prevent future sprawl.
  • Create and maintain documentation, runbooks, and training materials for teams adopting the new structure
