Position Overview:

• Our client is seeking a macOS Automation Platform and Cloud Build Engineer to build the infrastructure, pipeline automation, and device management integrations that power scalable macOS packaging and distribution.
• This role is weighted toward Phase 2 delivery, including migrating AutoPkg execution to cloud-based builds on AWS EC2 Mac instances orchestrated with Terraform, and integrating automated distribution and telemetry workflows using Workspace ONE APIs and Omnissa Intelligence.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

• Experience with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, specifically for provisioning and managing AWS EC2 Mac instances.
• Proven ability to build CI and CD pipelines that replace manual handoffs with deterministic and auditable automation.
• Experience integrating enterprise platforms via APIs, including authentication patterns, error handling, and operational telemetry.
• Familiarity with Workspace ONE APIs for application distribution workflows, including package upload and deployment concepts.
• Strong Git and GitHub workflow discipline, including branching strategies, pull requests, and code review participation.
• Ability to work across engineering, security, and operations stakeholders to deliver secure and reliable platform capabilities.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Understanding of AutoPkg execution patterns and how AutoPkg workflows interact with build systems and artefact repositories.
• Python proficiency for pipeline tooling and integrations, including custom validation steps and compliance gating.
• AI or agentic development proficiency, especially for automation orchestration, workflow agents, and operational assistant patterns.
• Web application development experience and modern API interface design to support later phase portal enablement.

Tools and Technologies:

• Terraform
• AWS, including EC2 Mac.
• CI and CD pipeline tooling and automation frameworks.
• Workspace ONE APIs and Omnissa Intelligence.
• Git and GitHub.
• Python, preferred for integration and automation tooling.

Responsibilities:

• Provision and manage AWS EC2 Mac build infrastructure using Terraform, including repeatable environments, configuration standards, and lifecycle management.
• Design and implement CI and CD pipelines that integrate packaging build steps, security scanning, compliance validation, and artefact promotion with deterministic and auditable automation.
• Integrate with Workspace ONE APIs to automate package upload, ring-based deployment, and telemetry consumption via Omnissa Intelligence.
• Establish secure handling of credentials, secrets, signing materials, and build artefacts with traceability and compliance in mind.
• Implement pipeline observability, logging, and failure handling patterns that support reliable operations and fast issue resolution.
• Collaborate with macOS packaging engineers, security teams, and platform stakeholders to define interfaces between build systems, compliance gates, and distribution services.
• Maintain all infrastructure code, pipeline definitions, and integration code in GitHub with strong code review and change control practices.
• Apply AI-assisted and agentic automation approaches where appropriate to reduce toil and improve delivery speed while maintaining auditability.
