Role Overview
This is a platform / DevOps engineering role embedded within a NetDevOps partnership model — a hybrid structure where network engineers own network design and configuration intent, while this hire owns the automation, CI/CD tooling, and delivery pipeline that turns that intent into safely deployed, self-service infrastructure.
This is not a traditional network engineering role. The candidate is not expected to hold routing/switching expertise (e.g. CCNA/CCNP-level knowledge). They are expected to be the automation backbone that enables network engineers to work productively without needing to touch Jenkins, Helm, or Kubernetes directly.
Core outcome: network engineers should be able to push changes through Git and trust the pipeline to validate, test, and deploy those changes — without requiring DevOps hand-holding for every change

Key Responsibilities
CI/CD Pipeline Engineering (Jenkins / Groovy)
• Design, build, and maintain Jenkins declarative and scripted pipelines
• Develop and maintain custom Groovy shared libraries used across multiple pipeline jobs




• Diagnose and fix broken or flaky pipeline jobs, often under time pressure
• Manage Jenkins plugin ecosystem, agent/node configuration, and credentials management
• Implement pipeline stages for linting, testing, artifact publishing (Nexus), and deployment gating
Application Deployment on OpenShift / Kubernetes
• Package and deploy applications using Helm charts (authoring and maintaining charts)
• Manage OpenShift-specific constructs: routes, projects/namespaces, security context constraints, resource quotas
• Handle rolling updates, rollback strategies, and setting promotion (dev → staging → prod)
• Troubleshoot pod failures, resource constraints, and in-cluster networking issues
GitOps Enablement (Network Engineer Self-Service)
• Build GitOps workflows that let network engineers submit changes via Git for automated validation and deployment
• Define branch protection, PR/merge request gating
