  • Knowledge of automated build, testing, and deployment pipelines
  • Understanding of networking fundamentals
  • Exposure to digital certificates, PKI, encryption, cryptographic technologies, or key-management systems
  • Ability to work collaboratively with engineers across multiple technical disciplines

What You Will Be Doing

Daily Responsibilities
  • Develop Python software used to control and automate infrastructure services
  • Create tooling that handles load balancer setup, changes, maintenance, and decommissioning
  • Connect networking technologies with enterprise applications through programmatic interfaces
  • Build reusable services that reduce the need for engineers to complete infrastructure tasks manually
  • Convert existing operational runbooks into automated workflows
  • Improve the reliability and repeatability of infrastructure processes through software engineering
  • Create self-service capabilities that application teams can use without direct operational intervention
  • Support technology initiatives related to application migration and infrastructure modernization

  • Troubleshoot defects and service interruptions across production and lower environments
  • Work alongside infrastructure, network, and application engineering groups
  • Participate in sprint activities, engineering discussions, and Agile ceremonies
  • Build solutions in accordance with enterprise security, quality, and regulatory standards
