Duration: 5 months contract (potential to go PERM with client eventually)
100% Onsite work

Responsibilities:
We're looking for an experienced, forward-thinking engineer to strengthen our pipeline delivery capabilities by architecting robust CI/CD workflows within our Platform Engineering team. In this role, you will drive the design and evolution of scalable, secure, and automated pipelines, primarily utilizing GitLab CI/CD and Python. You'll work closely with diverse technology teams to standardize deployment patterns, embed security scanning, and champion pipeline-as-code methodologies. If you're passionate about platform efficiency, advanced automation, and accelerating the software development lifecycle, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Design, implement, and manage scalable and resilient CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD to support microservices and monolithic applications.
  • Develop and maintain advanced automation scripts and tooling using Python to streamline build, test, and release processes.
  • Architect and maintain reusable pipeline templates and libraries to ensure standardization and ease of adoption across development teams.
  • Integrate Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) workflows (Terraform/OpenTofu) into application pipelines for automated environment provisioning.
  • Implement and enforce security best practices within the CI/CD lifecycle, including SAST/DAST scanning, dependency checking, and secret management.
  • Collaborate closely with diverse teams to optimize build times, manage artifact lifecycles, and provide Pipeline Engineering expertise.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex pipeline failures, build errors, and deployment issues across Windows and Linux environments.
  • Implement and manage pipeline observability and metrics to ensure deployment visibility and proactive issue detection.
  • Clearly and concisely contribute to the development and documentation of Pipeline Engineering standards and GitOps best practices.
  • Stay up-to-date with the latest industry trends and technologies in CI/CD, DevSecOps, and build automation.
  • Provide mentorship and guidance to junior team members on pipeline architecture and Python automation.

Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 5+ years of experience in a Platform, DevOps, Release, or Pipeline Engineer role.
  • Extensive hands-on experience designing and implementing complex CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD.
  • Strong scripting and software development skills, specifically with Python, for automation and API integration.
  • Solid understanding of Windows/Linux Server administration as it relates to build agents and deployment targets.
  • Proven experience integrating infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools, specifically Terraform (OpenTofu) and AWS CDK, into automated pipelines.
  • Experience deploying and managing applications in cloud environments, particularly Amazon Web Services (AWS).
  • Deep understanding of security best practices (DevSecOps) and their implementation in CI/CD pipelines (e.g., SonarQube).
  • Solid understanding of version control strategies (Git branching models) and artifact management (e.g., Artifactory).
  • Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills related to build and deployment failures.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with containerization & orchestration technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes/EKS)
  • Relevant AWS or Platform/DevOps certifications.
  • Strong background with .NET/Core build processes and deployment patterns.
  • Experience migrating legacy pipelines (e.g., Jenkins) to GitLab CI/CD.
  • Understanding of Windows server build processes using tools like Packer and Chocolatey.
  • Experience with monitoring tools integrated into deployment workflows (e.g., New Relic, CloudWatch).
