Sr Devops Engineer

• Own release engineering across multiple teams: plan, coordinate and execute deployments that span cross-team dependencies and shared release trains, working directly with product owners, scrum masters, engineers and QA.
• Build and continuously improve the automated deployment paths for our Azure platform as a service applications, along with the networking, identity and secrets configuration those deployments depend on.
• Migrate pipelines and repos from Azure DevOps to GitHub Actions, and build the templates and patterns that make the migration repeatable for other teams.
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions for secure, scalable, and repeatable delivery patterns.

• Develop scripts and tooling (PowerShell, Python, Bash) to replace manual steps and remove toil.
