DevOps Platform Architect

Carrier•Palm Beach Gardens, FL

About The Position

The DevOps Platform Architect will lead the design, delivery, and ongoing evolution of the organization's DevOps platform capabilities. This is a hands-on technical leadership role responsible for building the foundational CI/CD infrastructure that engineering teams across the organization depend on to deliver software reliably and at scale. The primary focus of this role is GitHub Enterprise platform ownership and the development of a centralized, reusable CI/CD pipeline framework that serves multiple internal customer teams. The successful candidate will establish standards, tooling, and best practices that enable teams to adopt consistent software delivery patterns without building pipelines from scratch, reducing duplication, improving security posture, and accelerating time to delivery. This individual will integrate CI/CD pipelines with Infrastructure as Code tooling, cloud-native deployment patterns, and security scanning capabilities, ensuring that delivery pipelines are secure, observable, and aligned with enterprise compliance requirements. They will work closely with Cloud Engineering, Security, and application development teams to embed DevOps practices across the platform lifecycle. The role requires a self-motivated technical leader with strong problem-solving ability, excellent communication skills, and a demonstrated track record of building and scaling DevOps platforms in complex enterprise environments. The individual must be equally comfortable leading a team, engaging with stakeholders, and getting hands-on with platform tooling and automation.
