If wrangling complex DevOps ecosystems, taming YAML dragons, and leading sharp engineers through cloud-native frontiers sounds like your idea of a good time, you’re in the right place.

We’re looking for a Lead DevOps Engineer to provide hands-on technical leadership for our Enterprise DevOps team. This team sits at the heart of software delivery for a Fortune 50-scale environment, operating and evolving the tools that thousands of engineers rely on every day. You’ll lead a small but mighty team of engineers responsible for our core platforms—Azure DevOps, GitHub, SonarQube, Artifactory, and LaunchDarkly—and make sure they’re not just operational, but world-class.

This isn’t a “check the box” role. It’s a high-impact seat for someone who wants to push the boundaries of platform engineering while coaching others to do the same. Think architectural decisions, roadmap leadership, incident response rituals, and the occasional “how is this even working?” debugging adventure.

Responsibilities, What You’ll Do

+ Lead the Pack: Set technical direction, guide architectural decisions, and provide mentorship to a tight-knit team of DevOps engineers.

+ Own the Core Stack: Ensure the reliability, scalability, and security of our enterprise DevOps platforms—Azure DevOps, GitHub, SonarQube, Artifactory, and LaunchDarkly.

+ Drive Platform Maturity: Partner with security, compliance, and developer experience teams to improve automation, access controls, and self-service capabilities.

+ Be the Calm in the Storm: Serve as escalation point during major incidents. Lead from the front when things get real.

+ Innovate with Purpose: Keep an eye on the bleeding edge, but stay rooted in pragmatism. If it’s shiny and saves hundreds of hours a month, let’s talk.

+ Build the Culture: Help shape a high-performance team culture that’s low on bureaucracy and high on mutual respect, curiosity, and ownership.

Use your skills to make an impact

Required Qualifications

+ Bachelor’s Degree in IT, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field

+ 8+ years of overall experience

+ 2+ years of experience leading technical teams before—or you’ve been the senior person everyone already turns to.

+ expertise in one or more of our core platforms, and you’re curious enough to master the rest.

Preferred Qualifications

+ You can speak fluent GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines in the same conversation—and throw in a strong opinion about artifact governance for good measure.

+ You know the difference between “production-ready” and “production-eventual” and have battle scars to prove it.

+ You collaborate well across engineering, security, and product teams, and you can turn chaos into strategy with a whiteboard and a can of Mountain Dew.
