  • Work with development teams to understand build, deployment, and environment needs, then contribute to practical automation and process improvements.
  • Troubleshoot build, deployment, infrastructure, and environment issues by reviewing logs, pipeline output, Linux systems, and cloud service behavior.
  • Support secure development and DevSecOps practices, including security scanning and compliance-related tooling integrations.
  • Use approved AI tools to assist with scripting, troubleshooting, documentation, log analysis, and workflow improvement while following company security, privacy, and code-review expectations.
  • Maintain clear communication about environment state, deployed versions, release status, availability, risks, and next steps.
  • Participate in on-call or operational support rotations as needed for supported services and release infrastructure.

  • Working knowledge of Kubernetes concepts; Amazon EKS experience is a plus.
  • Experience with Docker and container-based application delivery.
  • Strong Linux fundamentals, including command-line troubleshooting, shell scripting, process inspection, permissions, networking basics, logs, and system services.

  • Practical scripting experience with one or more of Groovy, Python, or Bash.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and release automation using tools such as Jenkins and GitHub Actions.
  • Familiarity with release practices such as branching, tagging, versioning, artifact promotion, rollback planning, and progressive deployments.
  • Experience with developer and artifact tooling such as GitHub and Artifactory.
  • Familiarity with common build tools such as Gradle, Maven, or npm.
  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code and configuration/provisioning tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Packer, and Chef; hands-on Terraform experience is strongly preferred.
  • Basic understanding of secrets management, certificates, SSL/TLS concepts, and secure automation practices.
  • Exposure to DevSecOps tools such as Black Duck, Prisma Cloud, or similar scanning platforms is a plus.
  • Experience using AI-assisted engineering tools to improve productivity, generate or review scripts, summarize logs, draft documentation, or explore technical options, with good judgment around security and accuracy.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, especially when coordinating releases, environment status, risks, and troubleshooting updates across teams.
