Job Description

Role purpose

We are looking for two experienced Specialist DevOps Engineers to strengthen our CI/CD capabilities across the DC Warehousing domain.

The role has a dual focus. On one hand, the engineers will support and maintain the current Bitbucket and Bamboo-based CI/CD landscape, including the integration with our virtualization and deployment platform. On the other hand, they will help modernize our DevOps tooling by supporting the migration towards GitHub Enterprise, GitHub Actions, Flux-based GitOps deployments, and standardized CI/CD practices.

This means the role is not only about future-state platform engineering, but also about keeping the current delivery engine running while we transition to a more modern and scalable setup.

Key responsibilities

1. Maintain and support the current Bitbucket/Bamboo CI/CD landscape

• Maintain and troubleshoot existing Bitbucket repositories and Bamboo build/release pipelines.
• Support teams with pipeline failures, build issues, deployment issues, permissions, repository setup, and configuration problems.
• Improve the stability, reliability, and maintainability of existing Bamboo plans where needed.
• Help reduce technical debt in the current CI/CD setup.
• Ensure critical customer deliveries and release activities are not disrupted by tooling or pipeline issues.
• Support operational continuity while migration activities are ongoing.
• Document the current setup, known issues, dependencies, and migration readiness of existing pipelines.
• Act as an escalation point for CI/CD-related incidents and recurring problems.

2. Support migration from Bitbucket/Bamboo to GitHub Enterprise and GitHub Actions

• Analyze existing Bitbucket repositories and Bamboo pipelines.
• Identify migration complexity, dependencies, risks, and improvement opportunities.
• Translate Bamboo pipelines into GitHub Actions workflows.
• Support repository migration from Bitbucket to GitHub Enterprise.
• Help define migration waves, readiness criteria, and fallback options.
• Ensure teams can migrate without jeopardizing ongoing releases or customer milestones.
• Validate that migrated pipelines provide at least the same functionality, quality gates, and traceability as the current setup.
• Support teams during hypercare after migration.

3. Improve CI/CD standards across current and future platforms

• Define CI/CD standards that can be applied consistently across teams.
• Identify which existing Bamboo patterns should be reused, improved, or replaced.
• Create reusable GitHub Actions workflows and templates.
• Standardize approaches for build, test, scan, package, release, and deployment activities.
• Improve pipeline observability, error handling, and maintainability.
• Support the move from team-specific pipeline solutions to reusable platform capabilities.
• Help establish common documentation, onboarding material, and how-to guides.

4. Cloud, Azure, and infrastructure-as-code integration

• Support Azure-related integration for GitHub organizations, repositories, runners, service principals, subscriptions, user groups, and permissions.
• Work with IT and cloud platform teams to automate manual setup activities where possible.
• Contribute to infrastructure-as-code solutions for repeatable and auditable environment setup.
• Support secure runner strategies, including GitHub-hosted and self-hosted runners where applicable.
• Help teams integrate CI/CD pipelines with Azure services and deployment environments.

5. Virtualization, GitOps deployment, and runtime platform support

• Support CI/CD integration with the current virtualization and deployment technology stack, including Harvester, Hyper-V, and Flux.
• Maintain and troubleshoot deployment automation and environment-related pipeline issues across virtualized and containerized environments.
• Support Flux-based GitOps deployment flows, including configuration, synchronization, promotion, rollback, and troubleshooting.
• Work with IT, platform, and development teams to ensure CI/CD pipelines align with infrastructure constraints, environment availability, and operational needs.
• Contribute to the standardization of deployment patterns across current Bamboo-based pipelines and future GitHub Actions workflows.

6. Quality, security, and compliance automation

• Integrate static code analysis, dependency scanning, secret scanning, license checks, and vulnerability scanning into CI/CD pipelines.
• Support integration with tools such as SonarQube, artifact repositories, container registries, and security scanning tools.
• Ensure pipelines support cyber security and compliance requirements such as NIS2, CRA, and internal software security standards.
• Collaborate with cybersecurity and architecture stakeholders to define appropriate controls and evidence.
• Improve traceability from code changes to builds, releases, tests, and deployments.

7. Team enablement and coaching

• Support teams hands-on during pipeline maintenance, migration, and troubleshooting.
• Coach engineers on Bitbucket, Bamboo, GitHub, GitHub Actions, Git, CI/CD practices, and DevOps ways of working.
• Help teams understand and adopt standardized pipelines and reusable workflows.
• Create practical documentation, how-to guides, examples, and onboarding material.
• Act as a sparring partner for teams facing build, release, test automation, or deployment challenges.
• Contribute to the broader DevOps transformation and platform engineering roadmap.

Required experience

• Strong hands-on experience with CI/CD pipeline design, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
• Practical experience with Bitbucket and Bamboo in an enterprise environment.
• Experience maintaining existing CI/CD platforms while supporting a migration or modernization journey.
• Hands-on experience with GitHub Enterprise and GitHub Actions, or strong experience with comparable modern CI/CD platforms.
• Strong knowledge of Git, branching strategies, pull requests, merge workflows, release tagging, and repository governance.
• Experience analyzing legacy pipelines and translating them into modern reusable workflows.
• Ability to troubleshoot build failures, dependency issues, runner/agent issues, permission problems, and deployment pipeline failures.
• Experience with scripting and automation, for example Bash, PowerShell, Python, or similar.
• Experience with Azure, infrastructure as code, service principals, permissions, and cloud integration.
• Hands-on experience with Harvester and Hyper-V in relation to CI/CD, deployment automation, and environment troubleshooting.
• Practical experience with Flux or comparable GitOps-based deployment tooling.
• Understanding of how CI/CD pipelines interact with virtualized infrastructure, Kubernetes-based platforms, and deployment environments.
• Good understanding of DevSecOps practices, including secret management, scanning, quality gates, and secure pipeline design.
• Ability to support multiple teams in parallel in a complex engineering environment.

Preferred experience

• Experience with SonarQube, quality gates, static analysis, and code quality reporting.
• Experience with artifact management tools such as JFrog Artifactory, Nexus, or GitHub Packages.
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Rancher, or cloud-native deployment approaches.
• Experience with self-hosted GitHub runners and enterprise runner management.
• Experience in regulated or cyber-sensitive environments.
• Experience with software delivery for complex systems involving multiple products, teams, and release trains.
• Experience with SAFe, Agile Release Trains, or large-scale agile delivery organizations.
• Experience setting up developer portals or internal developer platforms, for example Backstage.
• Experience with Jira integration and traceability between work items, code, builds, and releases.
