Responsibilities
- Modernize Pipelines: Evaluate existing legacy build and deployment workflows to identify inefficiencies and replace manual gates with high-speed automation.
- Engineer Automation: Design and implement end-to-end CI/CD pipelines that incorporate automated testing and security scanning.
- Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Transition manual setups into reproducible code using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation to ensure Clarity Over Complexity.
- Standardize "Golden Paths": Establish consistent build artifacts and deployment patterns across environments to help developers move faster.
- Drive Observability: Implement robust logging and alerting to ensure developers get immediate, actionable feedback on their builds.
- Collaborate with Purpose: Partner with engineers to solve problems as they arise, balancing technical rigor with the agility needed in a high-growth environment.
Requirements
Pipeline Mastery: 3–5 years in DevOps or SRE with a proven track record of migrating or upgrading legacy pipelines.
Modern Tooling: Deep expertise in industry-standard tools like GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, AWS or Azure DevOps.
Containerization: Strong experience with Docker and Kubernetes to modernize application packaging and deployment.
Automation Logic: Proficiency in C# and Python, Bash, or PowerShell to automate repetitive tasks.
The Modernizer’s Mindset: The patience to dig into older systems (XML, manual scripts) and the vision to replace them with elegant, modern alternatives.
Educational Foundation: A Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field or a continuous pursuit of professional evolution.
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience in high-growth tech or private equity-backed environments.
- A background in transitioning monolithic build systems to microservices-based.
