Job description

At Pacific Programming and Tech Inc., we are passionate about crafting innovative software solutions that empower businesses and enhance user experiences. Our team thrives on collaboration, creativity, and a commitment to excellence. We are a leading software development firm specializing in the development of various systems and related applications, and we are currently looking for an experienced DevOps Engineer/Lead to join our team.

In this role, there is scope to have a big impact as you will be one of the initial members of the DevOps team, playing a major part in defining long term DevOps strategy and building out our team. We're looking for a pragmatic engineer with a solid foundational understanding of software development who can play a lead role in our shift towards a unified engineering platform. You will work closely with development teams and IT folk in order to build great relationships and help you to identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and trends. A good understanding of DORA metrics would be ideal, as you will use these to prioritize work and measure success.

Key Responsibilities

This is certainly not an exhaustive list, but some of our ongoing DevOps initiatives include:

• Iterating on and rolling out our existing YAML CI/CD pipelines more widely, shifting away from 'drag and drop' UI-based configuration towards version controlled 'configuration as code'.
• Ensuring infrastructure is observable and properly instrumented, emitting high value telemetry data.
• Continuing to build automated processes/workflows that ensure pre-production environments are as 'production like' as is feasible.

Our Current Tech Stack

• Azure DevOps (repos, pipelines, releases, artifacts, boards)
• IIS (including Application Request Routing and URL Rewrite modules)
• Windows Server 2019+
• F5 BIG-IP (Local Traffic Manager, Server Pools, DNS)
• CloudFlare
• DataDog (APM, Logs, Metrics, Dashboards, Monitors, Service Management)
• MS SQL Server 2019+
• .NET/C#, PowerShell, bash, Windows command shell
• Git

What We Offer

• Competitive salary based on your level of experience.
• A benefits package that includes an extensive health insurance package, as well annual vacation, sick and personal days.
• A remote-hybrid work environment and flexible work arrangements to promote work-life balance.
• A collaborative and supportive work culture.
• Opportunities for professional growth and development.
• Offices located in the heart of Montreal and Vancouver, with direct access to public transit.
