- Own CI/CD across GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD and Nexus.
- Keep security and dependencies in check with Snyk and Renovate.
- Manage feature delivery with LaunchDarkly and monitoring with Splunk and Dynatrace.
Requirements
- Strong AWS experience.
- Strong OpenShift or Kubernetes experience.
- Deep CI/CD experience across GitHub Actions, Jenkins and ArgoCD.
- Hands-on with observability tooling like Splunk and Dynatrace.
- A security-first, automation-first way of working.
- Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools like GitHub Copilot as part of your everyday workflow.
Bonus points for LaunchDarkly, Renovate, Snyk and financial services experience.
