What you'll do
CI/CD: Evaluate, select, and own Rally's CI/CD platform. Define and track DORA metrics to drive continuous improvement in delivery velocity.
Developer Experience: Build on-demand ephemeral preview environments for a large service footprint that can't run locally. Improve inner-loop developer workflows: build times, local tooling, and service scaffolding.
Infrastructure ownership: Own Rally's full AWS stack (ECS/Fargate, Aurora PostgreSQL, MSK, DynamoDB), and mature our Terraform IaC — modularization, drift detection, CI for infra changes. Own cost optimization and per-team cost visibility.
Observability & reliability: Maintain and evolve Rally's Datadog observability stack. Build automation tools and runbooks to reduce operational toil and accelerate incident recovery. Drive post-incident reviews and translate findings into systemic improvements that prevent recurrence.
Security & compliance: Container scanning, secrets management, IAM least-privilege enforcement. Support SOC 2 audit requirements as needed.
