**Job Title**
DevOps Engineer
**Role Summary**
Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and build infrastructure for C/C++ and embedded Linux targets, ensuring reliable, traceable, and test‑validated releases for embedded and flight‑adjacent software.
**Expectations**
- Own end‑to‑end automation from source to release, delivering production‑grade pipelines that satisfy safety and traceability requirements.
- Continuously improve build speed, reliability, and iteration cadence while maintaining rigorous quality gates.
- Enable teams to ship code confidently with clear audit trails, automated testing, and consistent environment provisioning.
**Key Responsibilities**
- Build, test, package, and publish artifacts for embedded and flight‑adjacent software.
- Design gated workflows (unit, integration, static analysis, linting, SBOM, artifact signing).
- Manage CI runners/agents, caching, artifact repositories, and secrets management for scalability.
- Automate environment provisioning to eliminate build variance.
- Integrate HIL/SIL tests, log capture, and result triage into pipelines.
- Collect and store telemetry/log artifacts for debugging and regression tracking.
- Optimize pipeline performance: caching, parallelization, smart feedback.
- Define versioning, release notes, audit‑friendly change control, and traceability practices.
- Maintain runbooks for on‑call issues, build problems, and release procedures.
- Mentor engineering teams on CI standards, testable code, and automation practices.
**Required Skills**
- 5+ years experience building and owning production‑grade CI/CD pipelines.
- Deep knowledge of popular CI platforms (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, CircleCI, etc.).
- Hands‑on experience with build systems for C/C++, cross‑compilation toolchains, and embedded Linux.
- Proficiency in artifact management, caching strategies, and secrets handling.
- Strong debugging and troubleshooting of flaky pipelines and environment issues.
- Excellent written documentation and cross‑team communication skills.
- Understanding of security fundamentals: credential management, artifact signing, provenance, and SBOM.
**Required Education & Certifications**
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical field (or equivalent experience).
- Security clearance requirements as stipulated by U.S., U.K., or Canada for space‑technology roles.
