Job Role:-

- Designs and develops continuous integration and continuous delivery (CICD) solutions to meet business and IT needs of Selection Navigator. Performs technical/process design and implementation of the CICD pipeline. Aids in troubleshooting performance and configuration issues in a CICD environment.

Through proper analysis of pre-existing deficiencies, work towards implementing necessary foundational changes to be able to release working software in shorter intervals (i.e. potentially every sprint, 2 weeks).
- As a true steward of DevOps practices, establish the union of people, process and products to enable the continuous delivery of value to end users. The end result will be measured based on how efficiently developing, testing, and releasing software can happen rapidly, frequently, and more reliably, so the Selection Navigator program ‘can innovate like a startup and scale for the enterprise’.
- Help establish a unified process between development and IT/Infrastructure operations, drive best practices around how integrating source control, build definitions, environments etc. influences DevOps, and how automation is applied across all building blocks within DevOps.
- Drive adoption and evangelism of key concepts, benefits, tools, and practices of implementing Continuous Integration (CI), continuous testing, continuous deployment, release management, configuration management, 24 x 7 monitoring and learning within and outside of Selection Navigator Program.
- Help define release schedules, release train paths and adhere to Program and JCI priorities and procedures in all relevant plans. One of the main functions includes solving technical and logistical issues as they arise. Use his/her technical expertise to participate in functionality meetings with Product Owners, Tech Leads etc. and suggest changes and toggling to satisfy business and client needs.
- Proactively participates in review sessions, approval workflows, security requirements for all release paths, and facilitate communication channels between engineering and development Scrum teams to ensure idea and process alignment.
- Help establish a Selection Navigator Program level Release and Service dashboard, which, among other data components, at any point should display the current release paths, their corresponding status, key features being released, traceability matrixes as various TFS wok item levels (Epics à Features à PBIs OR Bugs à Taks) and any exceptions or discontinuity of services etc.
