Job Summary

The Strategic Relations and Communications Department at CU Boulder invites applications for a Web Operations (WebOps) & Automation Engineer! This position works within a cross-functional team to empower campus departments with a robust, modern web platform. Instead of managing raw hardware, you will focus on Developer Experience (DevEx)-using tools like Drush, Composer and CI/CD pipelines to automate the lifecycle of hundreds of sites. This is a perfect role for someone who enjoys "infrastructure as code" and wants to help bridge the gap between development and stable production environments.

Don't hesitate to apply if you meet the minimum qualifications but may not meet every preferred qualification! We recognize that learning and development are integral to many successful career paths and welcome applications from individuals excited to grow in this role.

CU is an Equal Opportunity Employer and complies with all applicable federal, state, and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment. We are committed to creating a workplace where all individuals are treated with respect and dignity, and we encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply, including protected veterans and individuals with disabilities.
Who We Are

As the university's central marketing and communications team, Strategic Relations and Communications advances CU Boulder's mission, vision, and reputation through an integrated communications approach supporting a campus-wide experience that inspires greater affinity and engagement.

Strategic Relations and Communications advances national and global recognition of CU Boulder by demonstrating its public value, improving the inclusiveness of our marketing and communications, supporting a campus-wide experience that inspires greater affinity and engagement, and providing tools and processes for campus partners.

What Your Key Responsibilities Will Be

Development:

  • Build, maintain, and improve website orchestration toolset.
  • Build, maintain, and improve infrastructure orchestration toolset.
  • Automate testing, QA, CI/CD pipelines, and other tasks
  • Respond to the needs of users and other developers.

Operations:

  • Design, build, maintain and improve aspects of infrastructure through reusable code, configuration and tooling.
  • Work collaboratively with the development team to implement performance monitoring, logging and observability solutions.
  • Participate in on-call rotation.

Reliability:

  • Work collaboratively with the development team to implement and improve the performance and capacity of the platform.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to application deployment, maintenance, and operations.
Other Duties as Assigned
What You Should Know
  • We are unable to provide sponsorship now or in the future for this position
  • This is a fully remote work opportunity.
  • This is a 2-year limited-term position with the possibility of extension beyond the limited term, depending on departmental budgets.
  • This position participates in a shared on-call rotation. Since we use managed cloud hosting, on-call events are rare and typically focus on high-level application availability rather than hardware or data center maintenance. We prioritize a healthy work-life balance and offer the stability and benefits unique to a University environment.
What We Can Offer

The annual salary range for this limited-term, full-time position is $74,400-$90,000.

Benefits

At the University of Colorado Boulder, we are committed to supporting the holistic health and well-being of our employees. Our comprehensive benefits package includes medical, dental, and retirement plans; generous paid time off; tuition assistance for you and your dependents; and an ECO Pass for local transit. As one of Boulder County's largest employers, CU Boulder offers an inspiring academic community and access to world-class outdoor recreation. Explore additional perks and programs through the CU Advantage program.

Be Statements
Be ambitious. Be inspired. Be Boulder.
What We Require
  • 1+ years of experience in a DevOps, WebOps, or System Administration role.
  • Bachelor's Degree (or equivalent experience) in a related field. A combination of education and related experience may be substituted for the degree on a year-for-year basis.
  • Familiarity with Git and a desire to automate manual tasks.
What You Will Need
  • Scripting: Proficiency in Python, PHP, or Bash for automating workflows.
  • Web Stack: Experience with Drupal or WordPress and an understanding of how the LAMP/LEMP stack functions in a cloud environment.
  • The Terminal: Comfort working in a Linux/Unix command-line environment (Lando, DDEV, or similar local dev environments).
  • Problem Solving: A "systems-thinking" approach-when a problem happens twice, you want to write a script so it never happens a third time.
What We Would Like You to Have
  • Experience with managed hosting platforms (specifically Pantheon).
  • Knowledge of GitHub Actions or automated testing suites like Playwright.
  • Familiarity with cloud-native concepts (even if you aren't managing the clusters yourself).
