About the Role: We are hiring Senior Automation Engineers to join a dedicated Agivant engineering pod. In this role, you will be hands-on in eliminating manual overhead by developing infrastructure-as-code and building custom intermediary services to optimize CI/CD integrations.
Key Responsibilities:
- IaC Development: Write, test, and maintain robust Terraform scripts to automate the migration of repository configurations (users, groups, repos) from Gerrit to GitLab.
- API Integration: Utilize the GitLab REST API extensively to programmatically apply configurations and validate migrations.
- Proxy Service Coding: Develop and maintain a custom RelayProxy translation service (or configure tools like nGrok) to ingest GitLab webhooks and distribute them to multiple downstream Jenkins pipelines.
- Execution & Testing: Execute the bulk reconfiguration of 40+ repositories utilizing the developed automation templates, reducing the current 2-hour-per-repo manual effort.
- Operational Support: Provide ongoing maintenance, monitor proxy service health, and troubleshoot pipeline trigger failures.
Requirements
Must-Have Qualifications:
- 5 to 7 years of hands-on experience in DevOps engineering and CI/CD optimization.
- Strong proficiency in writing and deploying Terraform code in production environments.
- Hands-on experience managing and integrating GitLab (REST API) and Jenkins.
- Proficiency in at least one programming/scripting language (Python, Bash, Go) for developing intermediate webhook services.
- Understanding of network proxies, routing, and payload translation mechanisms.
- Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced pod environment and troubleshoot complex integration bottlenecks.
