Your opportunity

An experienced DevOps engineer who owns the end‑to‑end CI/CD experience, production readiness, and safe, repeatable releases for containerized workloads on Public cloud and PCF platforms. You move seamlessly between hands‑on diagnostics, infrastructure automation (using Terraform), and cross‑team orchestration with SRE, Release Management, and feature teams.

• Own CI/CD pipelines in GitHub from build through promotion and deployment for containerized services; define guardrails, quality gates, and rollout/rollback patterns aligned with SRE and Release Management practices

• Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and release workflows that accelerate safe, frequent deployments to GCP and on prem/hybrid environments.

• Diagnose container runtime issues (e.g., task health, service scaling, deployments) and partner with teams during image promotion windows.

• Embed reliability practices: runbooks, production checks, operational readiness, and joint incident/retro participation with SRE.

• Champion observability and change safety: metrics, logs, alerts, and progressive delivery strategies (feature flags, config changes, DB change playbooks).

• Respond to Alerts and Escalations: Actively monitor and respond to system alerts and escalations to ensure the stability and reliability of our services. This includes diagnosing and troubleshooting issues in real-time to minimize downtime and impact on users.

• Lead and coordinate system recovery efforts during incidents. This involves executing recovery procedures, collaborating with cross-functional teams to restore services, and conducting post-incident reviews to identify root causes and implement preventive measures.

• Implement observability and runbooks with developers (dashboards, alerts, SLO aligned monitors) to reduce MTTR and prevent repeat issues.

• Participate in an on call rotation for DevOps support (release support, pipelines, platform) while partnering with SRE/operations teams on production reliability. (IC role; not a primary SRE position.)

• Operate within Change Management controls (ticketing, approvals, deployment windows) and contribute to continuous improvement of release governance.

• Collaborate within Agile ceremonies—stand ups, reviews, and retros—to plan work, surface risks, and iterate quickly as a self organizing engineering partner

• Implement SRE principles, including SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, monitoring, blameless postmortems, and toil reduction.
