Why Consider This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity for an experienced DevOps professional to take meaningful ownership within a growing organization whose technology environment supports users and customers at significant scale.

The role offers broad exposure across cloud infrastructure, automation, CI/CD, application delivery and multiple software platforms rather than being limited to a narrow portion of the DevOps stack.
