Builders Wanted

Rockwell Automation is looking for a Director to lead our Platform Automation and Developer Experience practice. Rockwell is a leading technology company, building a mix of hardware, software, and services solutions supporting high demand manufacturing customers. Our technology stacks are diverse as are our environments where software is constructed. The Director will partner with several Development teams in the long-term architecture, provisioning, monitoring, and enrichment of Development Environments, with the ultimate goal of improving the Developer Experience through Platform Automation.

You will be customer obsessed and form partnerships with multiple development, infrastructure, security, and operational teams. You will have a background in modern software platforms, understand how to productize platform components, and help Development teams to autonomously consume technology and compute platform level components. You will lead the construction of a democratized, self-service, library of reusable platform components - treating each component as a product and automating the product's lifecycle.

This is a hands-on position requiring technical skills and the ability to gain the trust/cooperation of other technical teams.

You will report to the VP, IT Infrastructure and Operations.

Your Responsibilities:

- Lead/Build a team dedicated to improving the experience of Rockwell's Developers through the automation of all technology and compute platform components in lower and production environments.
- Lead a diverse group of peers into a common solution framework.
- Develop and implement a strategy to enhance the developer experience across the organization. This is to include infrastructure services allowing developers to work from anywhere.
- Ensure stream/product aligned teams complete work with substantial autonomy.
- Lead the creation and adoption of a shared service for CI/CD pipeline platform components to refine development workflows and automated provisioning of lower environments and encourage reuse.
- Partner across Rockwell's Development teams in the creation of a shared, self-service library of platform components.
- Partner across Rockwell's Development teams in the creation of repeatable CI/CD pipelines or pipeline classes, using common pipeline templates wherever possible.
- Collaborate with Development, Security, and Infrastructure teams in the creation and operational support of lower environments tailored to improve the experience of Developers while maintaining the security of Rockwell's Intellectual Property.
- Champion complete build and production support automation and promote a culture of automation at Platform layers.
- Build observability into build chains, CI/CD pipelines, and automations of all environments.
- Collaborate with Build/DevOps/SRE Engineers in the creation and operational support of CI/CD pipelines and pipeline templates.
- Partner across Rockwell Automation in the governance of common Platform components.
- Productize and maintain a library of versioned Platform components and orchestration scripts developed anywhere at Rockwell.
- Creation or standardize test cases in CI/CD pipelines for the proper use of Platform Components, Operational Readiness, Architectural Alignment, UX for the IDP, or similar tests.
- Guide programs to automate development processes, reduce friction, and eliminate bottlenecks at Platform layers.
- Establish metrics and monitor Platform products to measure developer satisfaction and productivity.
- Stay informed about the latest trends in developer tools, platforms, and methodologies.
- Advocate for and implement developer-friendly practices.
- See all the interconnected parts and chart a path to an end solution.
