Key responsibilities:

1. CI/CD Strategy and Framework

Define and implement a standardized CI/CD framework aligned to trunk-first development and immutable deployment principles

Establish maturity model for pipelines, including progressive adoption of automation and controls (L0 to L3)

Define and enforce branching strategy, PR standards, and pipeline governance

Design reusable pipeline templates to ensure consistency across all applications

Introduce and operationalize soft gates and hard gates, aligned to release confidence and risk levels

2. Engineering Standards and Controls

Embed engineering standards into CI/CD pipelines, including:

Code quality and maintainability (SonarQube)

Security scanning (Snyk, WIZ, DAST)

Dependency and vulnerability management

Ensure all pipelines enforce required controls before merge and release

Define release candidate criteria and gating expectations

Drive build once, promote discipline across environments

3. Toolchain Integration and Automation

Lead integration of core engineering tools into pipelines, including:

Azure DevOps (repos, pipelines, branch policies)

Git-based workflows and PR enforcement

SonarQube quality gates

Snyk for SCA/SAST

WIZ for secrets and security posture

DAST for runtime vulnerability scanning

Automate workflows to reduce manual effort and improve reliability





Build reusable “skills” and automation patterns to support PR validation, documentation as code, and compliance checks

4. Hands-on Pipeline Engineering

Design and implement CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps

Create modular, reusable YAML templates for build, test, and release pipelines

Implement automated testing integration, including unit, integration, and security testing

Ensure observability is built into pipelines, including logging, metrics, and failure diagnostics

Troubleshoot pipeline issues and optimize performance

5. Adoption and Enablement

Partner with Service Managers and engineering teams to drive adoption of CI/CD standards

Ensure each service tower implements defined templates and practices

Provide hands-on support to onboard applications to the standardized pipeline model

Establish feedback loops to continuously improve pipeline design and usability

6. Governance and Reporting

Define pipeline-level metrics aligned to DORA and engineering KPIs

Establish visibility into pipeline performance, failure rates, and deployment frequency

Ensure compliance with defined standards through reporting and audits

Partner with PMO and Architecture to align governance with engineering signals, not milestone tracking
