We are seeking an experienced Senior DevOps / Release Automation Engineer to design, develop, and maintain enterprise CI/CD platforms, deployment automation frameworks, and release orchestration solutions.

This position focuses on release automation, artifact promotion, software delivery lifecycle management, and deployment platform engineering. Candidates must have hands-on development experience with Python, Jenkins, Ansible, JFrog Artifactory, and Git, along with experience working within formal enterprise release governance processes.

• Build reusable pipeline-as-code solutions with conditional logic for branches, tags, release types, and deployment targets.
• Automate releases across DEV, SIT, UAT, and PROD, including approval gates, artifact promotion, and deployment controls.
• Develop Ansible playbooks from scratch, reusable roles, Jinja2 templates, and environment-specific inventories and configurations.
• Build Ansible Tower/AWX workflows, surveys, and role-based deployment processes.
• Develop Python automation for file processing, YAML/JSON/XML parsing, regex-based routing, subprocess execution, build automation, and release orchestration.
• Administer JFrog Artifactory repositories and implement artifact publishing, promotion, and lifecycle management.
• Manage Git branching strategies, release branches, tags, cherry-picking, merge conflicts, and Git LFS.
• Build Liquibase database deployment pipelines, including changelogs, changesets, rollback strategies, and context-based deployments.
• Support change approvals, CAB processes, auditability, traceability, and compliance requirements.
• Standardize reusable deployment automation across multiple engineering teams and business units.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in DevOps, CI/CD, Release Engineering, or Release Automation.
• Strong Jenkins Pipeline development experience using Jenkinsfiles and Groovy.
• Strong hands-on Ansible playbook development and Ansible Tower/AWX experience.
• Hands-on JFrog Artifactory administration and artifact promotion experience.
• Advanced Git expertise, including branching and release strategies.
• Experience with Liquibase or comparable database release management tools.
• Strong Linux and shell scripting skills.
• Experience supporting enterprise SDLC, release governance, and controlled deployments.
• Demonstrated experience building automation used by multiple engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Payments domain experience with ACI, Volante, FIS, Fedwire, CHIPS, SWIFT, or ISO 20022.
• Financial services experience, particularly with Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citi, or Capital One.
• Experience in highly regulated enterprise environments.

Core Experience Candidates Should Be Prepared to Discuss

• Ansible playbooks developed from scratch, including Jinja2 templating and environment-specific deployments.
• CI/CD pipelines written as code with branching and conditional logic.
• Python automation involving file processing, subprocess execution, and structured data parsing.
• Release promotion across DEV, SIT, UAT, and PROD with approvals and deployment controls.

Please note:

The primary focus is application release and deployment automation. Experience centered primarily on Terraform, networking, VPCs, or cloud infrastructure provisioning does not align with this opening.
