About the Role

We’re hiring a Dev Ops Platform Engineer to own and evolve our CI/CD, artifact management, and developer tooling platforms.

You’ll keep Jenkins, Artifactory, and Circle CI resilient and secure, build automation to reduce toil, develop internal Developer Portal plugins, and act as the primary customer’s concern for platform incidents.

• What You’ll Do
• Jenkins
• Own end-to-end administration of managed Jenkins infrastructure across Corp and AWS environments.
• Drive the Unmanaged → Managed Jenkins initiative — migration planning, execution, and communication.
• Implement security hardening: RBAC, SSO/LDAP integration, secrets management, and audit logging.
• Build self-service Jenkins capabilities, provisioning workflows, and Ansible/Chef-based automations.
• Manage integrations with internal tooling platforms and CICD alert mute/un-mute workflows.
• Plan and implement Jenkins version upgrades with full test coverage and rollback plans.
• Create and refresh AMIs for AWS Jenkins agent instances.
• Artifactory & XRay
• Administer Artifactory deployments across AWS, Corp, and Azure (HA, replication, storage).
• Lead the New Gen Artifactory initiative and manage architectural migrations.
• Maintain Varnish caching layer: configuration, TTL tuning, and incident response.
• Manage XRay policies, scan configurations, and drive upgrades and patching.
• Automate support bundle generation and own license/vendor relationship with JFrog and Varnish.
• Circle CI
• Plan and implement Circle CI server upgrades including Nomad client AMI creation and refresh.
• Manage license renewals, certificate rotations, and cost chargeback reporting.
• Developer Portal Plugin Development
• Design and develop internal Developer Portal plugins for Jenkins, Artifactory, and other platform tools using React, Type Script, and Java Script.
• Maintain plugin health, track versions, resolve known issues, and ship iterative improvements.
• Collaborate with product and internal teams to surface platform capabilities through clean, usable plugin.
• Write well-tested, maintainable frontend code that integrates with platform REST APIs.
• Platform-wide
• Own SLA/SLO definitions, reporting, and auto-launch CSO configuration.
• Configure and maintain Grafana dashboards, New Relic alerts, and Splunk log pipelines.
• Manage TLS/SSL certificate lifecycle and token/password rotation (Cyber Ark, Vault, KLAM).
• Lead incident response, RCAs, and preventive actions for platform CSOs.
• Manage Kubernetes cluster migrations: Helm charts, RBAC, ingress, and storage.
• Drive quarterly compliance reviews (QCR) and remediate security vulnerabilities.
• Manage AWS cost chargeback, tagging strategy, and DNS/Infoblox changes.
• On-call Duties
• Participate in a regular on-call rotation to ensure 24/7 platform availability for Jenkins, Artifactory, and Circle CI.
• Respond to and triage platform incidents and alerts within agreed SLA windows; raise where appropriate.
• Perform root cause analysis (RCA) for all on-call incidents and document findings and preventive actions.
• Maintain and improve runbooks and on-call playbooks to reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR).
• Proactively identify recurring issues from on-call patterns and drive permanent fixes.
