• Collaborate closely with software engineers to enhance build reliability and deployment assurance.
• Take charge of CI/CD enhancements from conceptualization to production deployment.
• Actively contribute innovative ideas to refine DevOps methodologies, tools, and overall engineering efficiency.

Mandatory Skills:

• 3–5 years of experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Site Reliability Engineering.

• Strong background in containerization using Docker and orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes.
• Skilled in scripting and automation, particularly with Python, Bash, or Go.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, etc.).
• Thorough understanding of CI/CD principles, build optimization, and deployment strategies.
• Comfortable operating in environments housing legacy systems with custom scripts, XML configurations, and manual procedures.
• Strong problem-solving aptitude and ability to operate independently.
• Clear and effective English communication skills, both in writing and verbally.

Nice to Have:

• Background in incorporating security scanning and compliance validations into CI/CD pipelines.
• Familiarity with secrets management and state management in contemporary DevOps environments.
• Exposure to cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Previous experience in mission-critical or high-availability environments.
• Participation in defining DevOps standards or optimal platform practices.

Team & Environment:

• Engage with a distributed, multinational engineering team.
