DevOps Engineer

Role Overview

Mid to senior-level DevOps Engineer (fully remote, full-time) to strengthen end-to-end delivery and operational capabilities. You will prototype and productionize DevOps/cloud automation, establish reusable standards (shared pipeline modules, secure base artifacts, repeatable infrastructure patterns), and integrate quality/security controls into CI/CD workflows.

Responsibilities

CI/CD & Integration

• Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, including shared libraries/reusable modules to standardize delivery patterns.
• Build automated workflows for build, test, security scanning, artifact publishing, and deployment, including environment promotion.
• Integrate CI/CD with GitHub (branching strategy, PR checks, release tagging) and enforce best practices via templates/guardrails.
• Apply semantic versioning for pipelines, artifacts, and container images for traceability.

Container Security & “Gold Images”

• Build, maintain, and improve hardened Docker gold images (minimal, patched) used by engineering teams.
• Enforce container best practices: image hygiene, least privilege, dependency pinning, and SBOM awareness.
• Establish and automate an image lifecycle: build → scan → sign/promote → deprecate.

Artifact Management & Supply Chain Security (JFrog)

• Manage artifact workflows using JFrog Artifactory (repository structure, promotion, retention, access control).
• Partner with teams to remediate security findings and improve supply chain posture.
• Use Docker templates to automate deployment of new gold image versions.

AWS Infrastructure & Automation

• Build automation and operational patterns across AWS services such as RDS, Glue, and QuickSight.
• Develop Python tooling for cloud operations, validations, deployments, and reporting.
• Improve reliability/repeatability via automated provisioning patterns and standardized configurations.
• Build and deploy AWS resources using Terraform; deploy via the CI/CD pipeline.

Quality Gates, Observability, and Operational Excellence

• Integrate and operationalize SonarQube quality gates (coverage, code smells, vulnerability checks) in CI/CD.
• Support observability with Grafana (dashboards/alerts); optionally Datadog/New Relic.
• Collaborate with engineering/SRE stakeholders to reduce toil, improve incident readiness, and standardize runbooks.

Requirements

• Mid to senior DevOps engineering experience (as indicated by the role level).
• Experience building/operating CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and integrating with GitHub.
• Strong containerization and security practices, including hardened base images and image lifecycle automation.
• Familiarity with supply chain security patterns and artifact management using JFrog Artifactory.
• Hands-on AWS enablement and automation.
• Ability to build/deploy infrastructure and workflows using Terraform and Python tooling.
• Public Trust clearance or ability to obtain.

Nice-to-Haves / Optional

• Observability tools beyond Grafana: Datadog or New Relic.
