- Strong knowledge of Azure cloud services, identity, networking, monitoring, and security.
- Working knowledge of AWS cloud services and container deployment concepts.
- Experience integrating Infrastructure-as-Code into CI/CD pipelines.
- Solid understanding of DevSecOps principles, automated testing, and application security.
- Experience implementing secure secrets management and identity integration.
- Strong troubleshooting, automation, and scripting skills.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Nice To Haves

- Familiarity with OpenID Connect (OIDC) and Workload Identity Federation.
- Experience using AI-assisted developer tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar enterprise AI coding platforms.
- Experience driving CI/CD standardization and platform engineering initiatives across multiple development teams.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, maintain, and troubleshoot multi-stage GitLab CI/CD pipelines using .gitlab-ci.yml
- Configure and manage GitLab runners, artifacts, caching, CI/CD variables, deployment environments, approvals, and deployment gates.
- Develop reusable pipeline templates, shared components, include files, and parent/child pipelines to standardize delivery across teams.
- Implement GitLab governance, including branching strategies, merge request workflows, CODEOWNERS, protected branches/tags, merge trains, and approval rules.
- Monitor and optimize pipeline performance, reliability, observability, and maintainability.
- Integrate automated testing, security scanning, dependency scanning, secret detection, container scanning, and policy-based quality gates into delivery pipelines.
- Build, test, package, and deploy enterprise applications across one or more of the following technology stacks: .NET / C# Java Python Node.js / JavaScript / TypeScript
- Deploy and manage containerized applications through GitLab CI/CD into Azure-based environments.

- Configure deployment workflows across Development, Test, UAT, and Production environments with approvals, promotions, rollback strategies, and health validation.
- Manage Docker images, networking, runtime configuration, logging, monitoring, and release processes.
- Integrate Infrastructure-as-Code solutions such as Terraform, Bicep, ARM Templates, or CloudFormation into CI/CD pipelines.
- Support cloud-native deployments using foundational Azure and AWS services.
- Integrate Azure Key Vault into CI/CD workflows for secure management of secrets, certificates, API keys, and connection strings.
- Implement secure credential management using masked GitLab variables, environment isolation, least-privilege access, and credential rotation.
- Configure GitLab authentication to Azure using Service Principals, Microsoft Entra ID, Azure RBAC, and secure identity practices.
- Utilize AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code or comparable solutions to improve development, testing, documentation, debugging, and code quality.
- Ensure AI tools are used responsibly within enterprise governance standards while maintaining human oversight, secure coding practices, and protection of proprietary code and sensitive information.
- Support enterprise release governance, auditability, access controls, and separation-of-duties requirements.
- Collaborate with software engineering, cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, and security teams to establish scalable CI/CD standards and improve developer productivity.
- Champion DevSecOps best practices across the software development lifecycle.
