Job description

Role Purpose
A temporary (6 Months) contractor to support the Bologna and Taino (Altanova) engineering teams in migrating their desktop-application and firmware CI pipelines from GitLab/SVN/Jenkins/ADO into Doble's common Azure DevOps environment, while strengthening product-security practices required by the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the IEC 62443-4-1 secure-development lifecycle. The contractor will embed threat modeling, Snyk scanning, and SBOM generation directly into the migrated pipelines so that CRA/CE technical evidence is produced as a by-product of day-to-day engineering.
Essential Functions - DevOps & CI Migration
  • Design and build Azure DevOps multi-stage YAML pipelines, repos, service connections, agent pools, and variable/secret groups for the migrated teams.
  • Execute source-control migration from GitLab, SVN, and Bitbucket into Azure DevOps Git, including history, and advise on project/repo structuring (project-per-product vs. multi-repo).
  • Support desktop / thick-client and firmware builds - C/C++, .NET, FPGA toolchains, code-signing, and Yocto / embedded-Linux build servers in Azure.
  • Containerize and manage build/scan workflows using Docker, AKS, and Azure Container Registry.
  • Provide CI support for monolith-to-microservices refactoring (strangler pattern), standing up per-microservice pipelines.
  • Create reusable pipeline templates so the common environment is consistent across teams; manage infrastructure with Terraform.

Essential Functions - Security, Threat Modeling & CRA
  • Perform threat modeling using STRIDE (plus attack trees / MITRE ATT&CK for ICS where appropriate), producing data-flow diagrams with trust boundaries during the requirements/design phase.
  • Threat models must cover information flows, trust boundaries, data stores, external entities, comms protocols, externally accessible physical/debug ports, JTAG/debug headers and hardware attack vectors, CVSS-scored threats, and documented mitigations - aligned to IEC 62443-4-1 SR-2.
  • Build a reusable threat-model template and repeatable process, and feed outputs into CRA risk assessments (asset ID → threat modeling → risk evaluation) and Stage-Gate / Jira / ADO traceability.
  • Configure and operate Snyk - Snyk Code (SAST), Open Source (SCA), Container, and SBOM - as pipeline stages in ADO/Jenkins, set severity gates, and onboard new repos to raise coverage.
  • Add automated SBOM generation (CycloneDX/SPDX, machine-readable, per release) to each migrated pipeline.
  • Harden pipelines: move secrets to Azure Key Vault (no hard-coded credentials), secure service connections, enforce least-privilege on ADO/AKS.
  • Validate that mitigations work (SVV-2 threat-mitigation testing) and produce audit-trail artifacts (scan results, threat models, SBOMs, test records) for the CRA Annex VII technical file.

Requirements Summary - Must vs. Preferred vs. Nice-to-Have
Priority
DevOps / CI
Security, CRA & Threat Modeling
Must-have
ADO YAML pipelines; GitLab/SVN → Azure DevOps migration; desktop/firmware + Yocto builds; Docker / AKS / ACR
Snyk (SAST/SCA/Container/SBOM); STRIDE threat modeling with DFDs & trust boundaries; SBOM in-pipeline; CRA + IEC 62443-4-1 secure-SDLC awareness
Strongly preferred
Terraform IaC; reusable pipeline templates / standardization; microservices / strangler-pattern CI
Embedded/OT & hardware threat modeling (debug/JTAG ports, FPGA); CVSS scoring; CVD / vuln-handling SLAs; secrets hardening (Key Vault)
Nice-to-have
Bitbucket / Jenkins / SVN; code-signing; artifact management
Attack trees / MITRE ATT&CK for ICS; mitigation-validation testing (SVV-2); Nessus, CodeQL / SonarQube; NIS2 Italy awareness
Minimum Qualifications
  • 5+ years in DevOps / CI-CD engineering with hands-on Azure DevOps Pipelines and Git-based source-control migration.
  • Demonstrated experience building desktop/firmware or embedded build pipelines (not web-only).
  • Working knowledge of Snyk (or equivalent SAST/SCA), SBOM generation, and STRIDE threat modeling.
  • Familiarity with the EU CRA and IEC 62443-4-1 secure-development lifecycle concepts.
  • English working proficiency; Italian a strong plus given the mixed-language migration meetings.
