DevOps Engineer

ArcheSys Inc is a technology firm specializing in innovative cloud solutions and services for clients across various industries. They are seeking a mid to senior-level DevOps Engineer to strengthen their end-to-end delivery and operational capabilities across CI/CD automation and AWS cloud enablement, while also focusing on prototyping new automation approaches.

Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, including Shared libraries/reusable modules to standardize delivery patterns
• Build automated workflows for build, test, security scanning, artifact publishing, and deployment, including environment promotion strategies
• Integrate CI/CD with GitHub (branching strategy, PR checks, release tagging) and enforce best practices through templates and guardrails
• Implement and maintain semantic versioning practices for pipelines, artifacts, and container images to ensure traceability and prevent overwrite
• Build, maintain, and continuously improve Docker base “gold images” (minimal, hardened, patched) used across engineering teams
• Apply container best practices: image hygiene, least privilege, dependency pinning, SBOM awareness, and secure defaults
• Establish an image lifecycle model (build → scan → sign/promote → deprecate) and automate patching and rebuild workflows
• Manage artifact workflows using JFrog Artifactory (repository structure, promotion, retention, access control)
• Partner with teams to remediate findings efficiently and improve overall supply chain posture over time
• Build and maintain automation using Docker Templates for deploying a new version of gold images for existing images
• Build automation and operational patterns across AWS services, including RDS, Glue, and QuickSight
• Develop and maintain Python tooling to automate cloud operations, validations, deployments, and reporting workflows
• Improve platform reliability and repeatability through automated provisioning patterns and standardized configurations
• Build and deploy AWS resources using Terraform, and deployment using CI/CD pipeline
• Integrate and operationalize SonarQube quality gates (coverage thresholds, code smells, vulnerability checks) within CI/CD
• Support and extend observability integrations with Grafana (dashboards/alerts, operational visibility), and optionally Datadog/New Relic
• Collaborate with engineering and SRE stakeholders to reduce toil, improve incident readiness, and standardize runbooks
• Implement and manage security controls, ensuring system integrity and compliance with industry standards and organizational policies
• Work closely with the security team to monitor for vulnerabilities and implement necessary patches and updates
• Support compliance initiatives by adhering to established IT policies and guidelines
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop cohesive and innovative solutions
• Create and maintain comprehensive documentation outlining system architecture, procedures, and best practices
• Document procedures, configurations, and specifications, ensuring that knowledge is effectively shared across the team
• Contribute to the maintenance of a knowledge base to facilitate continuous learning and team development
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to understand their needs and develop solutions accordingly
• Participate in knowledge-sharing sessions to enhance team skills and expertise
• Assist in the creation and maintenance of technical documentation, including system designs, configurations, and procedures
• Continuously learn and keep up to date with emerging technologies and best practices in the cloud and DevOps space
• Take part in internal and external training to develop the necessary skills and knowledge for career growth
