Your opportunity


The team is seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer (IC) to work closely with developers and multiple Agile teams to build, test, secure, and deploy new offerings in our Financial Planning and adjacent platforms. You’ll operate across the SDLC—from pipeline design and infrastructure automation to environment reliability and release enablement—helping teams move quickly and safely on GCP and platform services.

We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location(s).

What you’ll do

  • Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and release workflows that accelerate safe, frequent deployments to GCP and onprem/hybrid environments.
  • Build and evolve GKE-based application platforms using Helm/kustomize, container registries, and GitOpsfriendly practices; drive 12factor and containerization standards.
  • Automate infrastructure and configuration with Terraform and policy guardrails; codify environment provisioning, secrets, and networking baselines.
  • Implement observability and runbooks with developers (dashboards, alerts, SLOaligned monitors) to reduce MTTR and prevent repeat issues.
  • Participate in an oncall rotation for DevOps support (release support, pipelines, platform) while partnering with SRE/operations teams on production reliability. (IC role; not a primary SRE position.)
  • Operate within Change Management controls (ticketing, approvals, deployment windows) and contribute to continuous improvement of release governance.
  • Collaborate within Agile ceremonies—standups, reviews, and retrosto plan work, surface risks, and iterate quickly as a selforganizing engineering partner.

What you have


Required must have

  • 5+ years of DevOps experience in Linux environments, with deep handson GCP exposure.
  • Strong PCF (Pivotal Cloud Foundry) experience (preferably production workload support) and understanding of its architecture/deployment strategies
  • Strong knowledge of core GCP services and architectures (e.g., GKE, networking, IAM, storage), with practical production experience; GCP certification preferred.
  • Expertise in Docker and 12factor design; production experience with GKE, Helm, and kustomize.
  • Proficiency with CI/CD tools—GitHub Actions and Bamboo—including build packaging, test gates, environment promotion, and production support workflows.
  • Handson Terraform for infrastructureascode and environment automation.
  • Strong understanding of networking (routing, subnets, NAT) as it applies to microservices and hybrid connectivity.
  • Scripting in Bash and Python for build/deploy tooling, environment diagnostics, and automation.
  • Clear documentation, crossteam communication, and problemsolving skills in a fastmoving Agile environment.

Nice to have

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering (or equivalent experience).

Collaboration & meeting cadence 

  • Daily: team standup; adhoc pairing/swarms on build/deploy issues.
  • Weekly: backlog/iteration planning with partner teams; release readiness and change tickets for production moves.
  • Biweekly: sprint review & retrospective; focused platform working session to evolve pipelines and shared modules.
  • Monthly/Quarterly: environment health, incident themes, and pipeline KPI reviews with partner teams to drive continuous improvement.
  • Participation in DevOps oncall rotation for releases/platform support (not a primary SRE rotation)

The stack you’ll touch (representative)

  • Languages/Frameworks: Java, .NET, Python.
  • Cloud/Platform: PCF, GCP, GKE, container registry, artifact management.
  • CI/CD & IaC: GitHub Actions, Bamboo, Terraform, Helm, kustomize.
