- Troubleshoot and resolve complex deployment issues, ensuring minimal disruption to development cycles.
- Develop a deep understanding of our product and ML architectures to facilitate seamless integration and deployment.
- Document pipeline processes and configurations to ensure maintainability and knowledge transfer.
- Proactively incorporate security best practices into all stages of the CI/CD pipeline, building security into our development processes.
- Drive standardization and foster collaboration across different product teams to achieve a unified and efficient SDLC.
Ideally you'd have:
- 2-3 years of experience as a DevOps Engineer, DevSecOps Engineer, Software Engineer with a strong focus on CI/CD, or a similar role.
- Proven track record of building or significantly enhancing CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience configuring and adapting application code to integrate seamlessly with evolving CI/CD environments.
- Experience working fluently with standard containerization & deployment technologies like Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, etc.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP).
- Strong proficiency in scripting and automation (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell).
- Familiarity with various CI/CD platforms (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).
- Knowledge of software architecture, system design, and version control systems.
- Comfort with rapidly changing, fast-paced environments and a passion for finding automated solutions to complex problems.
- Basic understanding of security best practices in software development and an eagerness to integrate them.
- A hunger for learning new technologies, particularly in the realm of integrating ML into automated workflows.
- Strong problem-solving, analytical, collaboration, and communication skills.
Nice to haves:
- Experience with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
