## Description

CGI is seeking a strong Senior DevOps Engineer to support a three month, outcome based modernization initiative. The engineer will help migrate application deployment pipelines from Jenkins and IBM UrbanCode Deploy (UCD) to GitLab CI/CD and Terraform.

The successful candidate will assess existing pipelines, design reusable migration patterns, implement secure and automated GitLab pipelines, develop Terraform modules, validate deployments across environments, and support knowledge transfer to the client's engineering teams.

This position is required in one of the following locations: Lafayette, LA, Knoxville, TN, Columbia, SC, Birmingham, AL

Your future duties and responsibilities

. Assess existing Jenkins pipelines, UCD deployment processes, scripts, integrations, and dependencies.

. Design and implement GitLab CI/CD pipelines to replace Jenkins and UCD workflows.

. Develop reusable GitLab pipeline templates for build, testing, security scanning, artifact management, and deployment.

. Create and maintain reusable Terraform modules for automated infrastructure provisioning and configuration.

. Migrate prioritized application pipelines across development, testing, staging, and production environments.

. Integrate GitLab pipelines with cloud platforms, artifact repositories, security scanning tools, secrets management solutions, and monitoring platforms.

. Implement appropriate approval gates, role based access controls, auditability, and deployment controls.

. Troubleshoot pipeline failures, Terraform issues, environment specific problems, and deployment dependencies.

. Partner with application, infrastructure, security, testing, and operations teams to validate migrated pipelines.

. Document current state findings, target state architecture, migration procedures, operational support processes, and rollback plans.

. Provide deployment support and hypercare following each migration wave.

. Conduct technical walkthroughs and knowledge transfer sessions for engineering and support teams.

. Track progress, risks, dependencies, and completed outcomes against the three month delivery plan.
