Description:
The DevOps Center of Excellence (DevOps COE) is tasked with delivering automated processes and tooling to streamline how BOI delivers software. We have already deployed key systems to facilitate this, and lead by example by ensuring our tools and services are delivered using fully automated pipelines!
In this role, you will
- Work with the DevOps COE to deliver key technical solutions to the bank in a way that is easily consumable by our development teams.
- Have an excellent understanding of the environments currently in use the development teams and provide support to them in their day to day usage
- You understand Infrastructure as Code principles (IaC) and are comfortable developing code to deliver working products (environment + applications + configuration) for the bank
- Use this understanding to continually improve our Infrastructure as Code components (Terraform / Ansible) and ensure thorough testing
- Work closely with Security and IT Architects to ensure all solutions are compliant to bank policy and are accurately introduced to the bank
- Understand & Influence how development teams are building and testing their software. Take best in practice guidelines and help them move to newer solutions that the DCOE is delivering
What will make you stand out?
- A proven track record in either a software development role where you have some exposure to releasing applications into a production environment or an operational facing role where you've had to deploy and support production type workloads
- Experience using the Atlassian tool stack - Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket
If You've Done Software Development, We Would Look For
- Good skills in one of the main scripting languages such as python, perl, ruby and their test frameworks
- Strong development background in languages such as Java, Golang, C, C# and a good understanding of their test frameworks
- You have developed applications that have involved the delivery and consumption of API's
- Exposure to one or more cloud providers (AWS / Azure / GCP) and you're comfortable with how to provision infrastructure using the portal UI.
- You're aware of tools like Ansible / Puppet / Chef and what they do, and it would be phenomenal if you've had some hands on experience.
- You've seen Terraform code and would be comfortable in how it is implemented and debugged
- Exposure to Docker and orchestration environments such as Kubernetes / OpenShift
If you've been more involved in the operational side of things, we like to see something like the following:
- In depth experience of one or more of the cloud providers (AWS / Azure / GCP) and can automate infrastructure using tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM Templates etc. Certifications are nice, but hands on experience preferable.
- A detailed understanding of how infrastructure is run and provisioned in virtualized environments such as VMWare
- You've used configuration management tools like Ansible / Puppet / Chef.
- In depth experience of configuration management orchestration tools such as Ansible Tower / Chef Server
- Detailed understanding of SSL & Cryptography and solutions to automation and management of SSL Certificates for applications.
- An appreciation for a test first software development approach, and a desire to ensure there're no surprises at deployment time
