- Automate the software development lifecycle to ensure fast, reliable delivery.
- Integrate testing, quality checks, and performance monitoring into the CI/CD process.
Infrastructure Automation & Management
- Implement Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) and configuration management using tools like Ansible, Pulumi, or other relevant platforms.
- Maintain consistent, scalable development environments across the lifecycle (dev, staging, production).
- Manage internal Kubernetes clusters and optimize environments for performance and scalability.
Agile Delivery Enablement
- Support development teams in adopting DevOps practices that align with Agile delivery (e.g., trunk-based development, release on demand).
- Contribute to internal developer platforms and self-service models for deployment and testing.
- Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in the delivery pipeline to enable faster feedback loops.
- Promote continuous improvement through experimentation, tooling evolution, and iterative delivery practices.
Collaboration & Communication
- Work closely with developers, QA, architecture, and operations to enhance collaboration and flow.
