About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • In this software-centric role, you’ll spearhead the design and delivery of automation—built with modern DevOps practices—to empower our operations teams to manage and maintain the cloud environments powering our network at scale.
  • You’ll partner closely with internal platform teams, operations, and external collaborators (including Microsoft) to ship reliable, secure, and observable automation that accelerates operations and reduces toil.
  • Build and deploy CI/CD pipelines that deliver platform services, configurations, and automation safely and repeatably at scale.
  • Design and develop APIs and service interfaces that enable self-service operations and event-driven workflows for platform management.
  • Implement Infrastructure as Code using Azure + Bicep, Kubernetes, and OpenShift, standardizing patterns, modules, and guardrails for consistent deployments.
  • Embed observability and reliability into automation (logging, metrics, pre/post-checks), enabling proactive operations.
  • Codify runbooks into reusable tools/CLIs, Git-backed workflows, and pipelines for our operations teams.
  • Champion DevOps best practices —version control, peer reviews, testing, security-by-default, secrets management, and continuous improvement.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with platform engineering, security, and operations to prioritize automation that reduces toil and MTTR.

Requirements

What you’ll need

  • Azure Cloud or OpenShift: Hands-on experience deploying and operating services on cloud environments such as Azure or OpenShift.
  • DevOps Fundamentals: Git, branching strategies, code reviews, automated testing, artifact/version management, and release strategies.
  • Operations at Scale: Building automation that is idempotent, resilient, auditable, and observable.
  • API Development: Designing and implementing robust, secure APIs for operational workflows.
  • Experience with RBAC, policy enforcement, and Azure Key Vault for secrets management.
  • Familiarity with containers/Kubernetes and how automation integrates with platform services (helpful but not required).
