  • 3+ years in a DevOps, Release Engineering, or similar role focused on automating deployments and managing CI/CD pipelines.
  • Technical Proficiency: Advanced skills in at least one programming language (Python, JavaScript, etc.) and proficiency with scripting (e.g., PowerShell, Bash, Python, Node.js) for automating tasks, monitoring systems, and optimizing deployments. Linux command-line experience is ideal.
  • CI/CD Expertise: Experience with tools like Jenkins, GitLab, or GitHub Actions, with a strong understanding of continuous integration and delivery best practices.
  • Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Proficiency with IaC tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or CloudFormation, with hands-on experience in both Linux and Cloud based environments (AWS Preferred).
  • Containerization: Familiarity with Docker or similar containerization tools for deploying and managing applications within containerized environments – such as Kubernetes.
  • Version Control and Collaboration Tools: Familiarity with Git for source control and collaboration, along with experience using team tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence) for cross-functional coordination.
  • Collaboration and Communication: Effective interpersonal skills to work with cross-functional teams, including DevOps, QA, and software engineering teams, and the ability to document and share best practices.
  • Problem-Solving: Strong troubleshooting abilities and a proactive approach to enhancing system performance and reliability.
