Overview

We are seeking a CI/CD & DevOps Engineer to lead the engineering and operations enablement for an enterprise-grade agent orchestration capability. This role owns the design and implementation of fully automated CI/CD pipelines, promotion gates, and infrastructure-as-code patterns that support secure, auditable, and reliable deployment of agent workflows across non-production and production environments Hanumawith tenant isolation. The role ensures release safety (blue/green, canary, rollback), drift detection, secrets management, and observability/SLO readiness, while partnering with platform engineering, security/identity, SRE, and app teams to reduce time-to-production and production risk.

Responsibilities

1) CI/CD Engineering & Promotion Gates (35%)

Design and implement fully automated CI/CD pipelines for agent workflows and platform components, including versioning, unit/integration tests, security scans, and promotion gates across non-prod and prod environments. (Execute/Consult)
Implement standardized release gates (policy checks, approvals, quality thresholds) and ensure traceability of artifacts promoted across environments. (Execute/Consult)
Provide reusable pipeline templates and reference patterns to accelerate adoption across teams while maintaining consistent governance. (Execute)

2) Infrastructure as Code, Environment Provisioning & Drift Detection (25%)

Build IaC modules and provisioning automation for environments (tenant isolation patterns, runtime prerequisites, gateways, secrets bootstrapping), with code review and drift detection. (Execute/Consult)
Integrate environment requests with enterprise DevX/portal APIs where applicable, enabling consistent, self-service provisioning. (Consult/Execute)
Ensure secure configuration management practices across environments (parameterization, policy-as-code compatibility, environment parity). (Execute)

3) Security, Identity, Secrets & Compliance Controls (20%)

Implement CI/CD and runtime integration patterns for SSO (SAML/OIDC), RBAC/ABAC enforcement hooks where required, and secrets management (vault/managed secrets) for pipelines and runtime components. (Consult/Execute)
Ensure audit logs exist for pipeline executions, approvals, deployments, configuration changes, and rollback events support evidence needs for compliance reviews. (Execute/Consult)
Enforce software supply-chain controls (signed artifacts/images, SBOM where mandated, dependency scanning, provenance). (Execute/Consult)

4) Release Safety, Reliability & Operational Readiness (15%)

Implement safe deployment strategies (blue/green, canary, progressive delivery) and automated rollback paths validate through drills and runbooks. (Execute/Consult)
Partner with SRE to define SLIs/SLOs for deployment success, rollout latency, and pipeline availability ensure observability is integrated (metrics/logs/traces). (Consult/Execute)
Provide incident, rollback, and migration runbooks participate in release incident triage and stabilization. (Execute/Consult)

5) Enablement, Adoption & Continuous Improvement (5%)

Mentor engineers on CI/CD best practices, release hygiene, and IaC patterns drive continuous improvement to reduce lead time and change failure rate. (Consult/Execute)
Decision-Making Autonomy: High-moderate - significant autonomy in CI/CD and IaC design choices within enterprise guardrails escalates enterprise-wide security and governance policy decisions.
Supervision Required: Moderate-low - operates with general direction from platform/SRE leadership periodic reviews for architecture and compliance readiness.
Complexity of Role: High - multi-tenant environments, strict audit/compliance, progressive delivery, and multiple integration points across tooling and identity systems.
Cross-Functional Interactions: Yes - continuous interaction with platform engineering, DevX/portal, security/identity, SRE/observability, and application teams.

Qualifications

Key Skills/Experience RequiredMinimum Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor's/Master's in CS/Engineering (or equivalent experience).
Proven experience building production CI/CD pipelines and operating deployment workflows for distributed systems.

Required Expertise

CI/CD platforms: Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions (or equivalent), branch policies, PR checks, artifact/version management
IaC: Terraform/Bicep/ARM (at least one strong), drift detection, environment modularization
Containers/runtimes: Docker, Kubernetes fundamentals familiarity with service meshes and ingress/gateway patterns is a plus
Security: secrets management, supply-chain security (scanning/signing/provenance), least privilege, audit logging expectations
Observability: integration of metrics/logs/traces release dashboards incident support patterns
Release engineering: blue/green, canary, progressive delivery, rollback automation, deployment verification tests

Differentiating Competencies

Ownership: drives CI/CD and IaC outcomes end-to-end ensures production readiness and stability
Collaboration & customer focus: treats app teams as platform customers balances speed with controls
Communication: clear release readiness reporting crisp RCA documentation and improvement proposals
Adaptability: adjusts to evolving governance, identity, and tooling constraints without breaking delivery
Proactiveness & initiative: anticipates release risks and dependency conflicts resolves early
Strategic thinking (emerging): identifies reusable patterns that accelerate adoption and reduce operational toil
