• Cross-Functional Partnership: Collaborate with development, operations, and security teams to identify bottlenecks and translate them into automated solutions.
• Code Quality & Mentorship: Lead code reviews, enforce best practices, and mentor team members to elevate the collective automation expertise of the organization.
• Continuous Improvement: Troubleshoot complex system failures, perform root-cause analysis, and continuously refactor existing frameworks for better scalability and maintainability.
Qualifications & Requirements
Minimum Qualifications
• Experience Baseline: Minimum of five (5) years of professional experience in systems engineering, DevOps, or dedicated automation roles.
• Ansible Expertise: 5+ years of hands-on experience designing modular playbooks, roles, and dynamic inventories.
