Zusammenfassung

Blue Origin is seeking an experienced DevOps engineer to own and evolve the software infrastructure behind avionics software development for our rocket engines. The role focuses on building, maintaining, and evolving CI/CD pipelines, container workflows, and reproducible development environments.

You will work in a safety-conscious, collaborative environment supporting a mission to advance safe human spaceflight. Applicants must be U.S.

Qualifikationen

• B.S. degree or higher in computer science, computer engineering, electrical engineering, or a related technical field.
• 5+ years of hands‑on experience in DevOps, infrastructure, or a similar software engineering role.
• Linux administration on RHEL and/or CentOS.
• Docker: building and maintaining images and Dockerfiles, working with registries, volumes, and Docker Compose.
• Virtual machines and hypervisors - provisioning, configuring, and troubleshooting virtualized build and development environments.
• Ansible for provisioning and configuration management of physical and virtual machines.
• GitLab CI/CD and GitLab Runners - designing, organizing, and maintaining pipelines, including build/test/deploy flows, secrets handling, and release automation.
• Artifact repository management (Artifactory or similar).
• Automation and scripting in Python and Shell.
• Git fundamentals - branching strategies, code review workflows, versioning.
• Core networking: SSH, TCP/UDP, routing basics, ports, and firewalling.
• Ability to learn fast, multitask, and drive tasks to completion.
• Ability to present technical concepts to peers and leadership, earn trust, and maintain positive and professional working relationships.
• Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.

Aufgaben

• Design, build, and maintain GitLab CI/CD pipelines and the GitLab Runner fleet supporting engine software development, from unit test through delivery to development hardware and simulated environments.
• Own the container build and distribution path - Dockerfiles, base images, registries, and artifact repositories - including migration of the existing Kaniko-based image builds to the go-forward toolchain.
• Provision and manage developer workstations, virtual machines, build servers, and containers as code using Ansible, driving toward reproducible, self-documenting infrastructure.
• Develop automation and tooling in Python and Shell to eliminate manual steps, reduce error rates, and improve build and test throughput.
• Act as the team's first line of support for Docker and CI issues across our software teams - triage failures, perform root cause analysis, and review other engineers' pipeline and container changes.
• Partner with external IT, Site Reliability Engineering, and infrastructure organizations to secure resources, resolve cross-boundary issues, and represent the team's needs.
• Identify weak points in our infrastructure management and propose and implement improvements rather than waiting to be asked.
• Maintain the tooling that supports our safety-critical software development process, including static analysis infrastructure and the licensing, entitlement, and availability of those tools.
