• Monitor pipeline performance post-adoption, deployment health and continuously resolve operational issues.
• Investigate deployment failures and operational incidents; conduct root cause analysis and implement preventive measures.
• Standardize CI/CD and QA practices across projects as adoption matures.
• Develop and maintain operational runbooks, SOPs, and technical documentation for CI/CD pipelines and release processes.
• Enforce controlled approvals within the pipeline, ensuring that releases to Staging and Production go through the required review and approval processes.
• Develop and execute automated tests for new and existing applications and configuration changes, in accordance with established standards.

Requirements

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.
• 3+ years of experience in DevOps, CI/CD operations, or application support - including at least one greenfield pipeline build
• Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps; familiarity with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI/CD is a plus.
• Hands-on experience with Git / source control systems.
• Hands-on experience with PowerShell, Bash, or Python scripting.
• Experience designing test cases, running regression testing, or building QA processes
• Demonstrated ability to drive process adoption with a team unfamiliar with CI/CD/automated testing.
• Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, ARM).
• Exposure to AI-powered DevOps, AIOps, or Generative AI tooling.
• Exposure to AI-assisted DevOps tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, AI-assisted testing platforms) is a plus.
