About the role
Our technology organization is evolving frommaintainingproducts to building a platform. We have separated our engineering operations into two focused groups — Service Reliability (“run the business”) and Service Innovation (“change the business”) — so each can move quickly without bottlenecks or interdependencies.
The DevOps Platform Enablement (DPE) Lead sits at the heart of Service Innovation. You will own our CI/CD pipelines, platform build, and engineering enablement — the “paved road” that lets every engineering team ship faster andmore safelywith less manual work. Your mandate is to push the platform forward: moderndeliverypipelines, developer experience, automation, security shift-left controls, architecture evolution, and tech-debt reduction.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You will build and mentor a team of professionals,setthe technical direction, and partner closely with the Service Reliability Engineering and Operations leads, and product engineering. In our modelDevSecOpsis embedded — not a separate central team — so security and quality controls live directly in the pipelines you own.
A centralobjectiveis self-service enablement and AI-enabled operations (AIOps): giving teams a single, shared view of system health and the ability to deploy without waiting on another team’s backlog.
What you’ll do
- Own and evolve the CI/CD platform — design, build, and maintain delivery pipelines that let engineering teams deploy to DEV and QATindependently, andenable Service Innovationand Reliabilityteams to promote changes through SAT, UAT, and PRD without cross-team dependencies.
- Build the “paved road” for engineering — self-service tooling, golden templates, and reusable infrastructure-as-code soteamsprovision and ship with guardrails rather than tickets.
- Embed security shift-left — integrate SAST/DAST,
dependency andsecretsscanning, and compliance gates directly into the pipeline, with automated defect and exception logging.
- Drive automation and reduce operational toil —eliminaterepetitive manual release and provisioningworkso engineers spend more time building.
- Advance platform architecture — lead infrastructure and developer-experience improvements, modernization, and tech-debt reduction across Azureand AWScloud environments.
- Enable AIOps and observability — stand up shared telemetry, monitoring, and AI-assisted incidentdetectionso teams have a single view of system health across environments.
- Lead and grow the team — hire, mentor, and develop engineers; set technical standards; and provide strong technical leadership and decision-making within your charter.
- Partner across the organization — work with Service Reliability (SRE/SRO), product engineering, and Information Security & Compliance to deliver reliably and securely.
- Maintain clear documentation and governance for tooling, environment provisioning, deployments, change management, and cost control.
- Prepare and own customer application migration activities from a technical perspective.
Measurements of Success
- Engineering teams self-serve deployments to DEV and QAT, and Service Innovation teams promote to SAT/UAT/PRD, with no cross-team dependency or hand-off delays.
- Automated, zero-downtime deployments of the SaaS platform across all environments,
with environment provisioning fully templated (Terraform or equivalent).
- SAST/DAST, compliance, and automated testing toolsets integrated into the CI/CD pipeline with automated result and exception logging; security-gate bypasses near zero.
- Reduced operational toil and faster delivery — measurable drop in manual release effort and lead time for changes.
- Effective use of cloud autoscaling and platform optimization resulting in reduced infrastructure cost-to-serve.
- Established, well-governed processes for environment provisioning, code deployment, change management, and cost control.
- A capable, motivated team with clear ownership, solid engineering practices, and a healthy delivery cadence.
Qualifications
Experience & Leadership
- Have 5+ years in DevOps, platform, or site-reliability engineering, including experience leading or mentoring engineers.
- Are passionate about building systems that arehighly reliable, maintainable, and scalable — and about automating everything.
- Can set technicaldirectionand make sound decisions while staying hands-on with the platform.
- Have excellent communication and collaboration skills and enjoy enabling other engineering teams.
Technical Skills
- Microsoft Azurecloudservices.
- Containerization and orchestration — Docker and Kubernetes.
- Infrastructure-as-codeinTerraform
- CI/CD toolsets — Azure DevOps, Octopus Deploy,TeamCityor similar.
- Scripting and coding — PowerShell, Python, or Bash.
- Code and package repositories — Git,npm, NuGet — and build tools such as Webpack, Gulp, or Cake.
- Security testing toolsets — SAST/DAST such as SonarQube,Invicti, or equivalents — integrated into pipelines.
- Observability, monitoring, and log-aggregation practices; exposure to AIOps is an asset.
