Undergraduate degree in Computer Science or Engineering or related subject.

CXone Expert is an agile engineering organization, and QA is fully automated. We release new versions of our platform every week through our CI/CD pipeline. Our application infrastructure runs on AWS and is almost entirely containerized orchestrated by Kubernetes.

We need a Sr. DevOps Engineer to round out our Site Reliability / DevOps team. This person will be the go-to person for research and development of architectural changes from the infrastructure up. We have our AWS, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, and Linux experts on the team already, and need someone to partner with them to design and build improvements to our platform to help us scale reliably as we expand our customer base over the coming years. Another important part of this role is helping other engineers on the team design and implement software that scales well and is highly reliable. You will get your hands dirty and refactor existing system / application code yourself (this is a hands-on role).

Responsibilities:

• Infrastructure as Code (IaC) :
  • Collaborate with development teams to design, implement, and maintain infrastructure using tools like Terraform, or CloudFormation.
  • Automate provisioning, configuration, and scaling of cloud resources.
• Monitoring and Incident Response :
  • Set up monitoring and alerting systems (e.g., Datadog, OpenTelemetry, NewRelic, Prometheus) to track service-level indicators (SLIs) and respond to incidents promptly.
  • Participate in on-call rotations, diagnosing and resolving production issues.
• Capacity Planning and Performance Optimization :
  • Analyze system performance, identify bottlenecks, and optimize resource utilization.
  • Work closely with developers to improve application performance.
• Reliability Engineering :
  • Define and track service-level objectives (SLOs) and error budgets.
  • Implement chaos engineering practices (e.g., game days, fault injection) to validate system resilience.
• Continuous Integration and Deployment (CI/CD) :
  • Enhance CI/CD pipelines, ensuring smooth and reliable software releases.
  • Implement blue-green deployments, canary releases, and feature flags.
• Security and Compliance :
  • Collaborate with security teams to ensure compliance with industry standards (e.g., CIS, NIST, SOC, ISO).
  • Implement security best practices, including access controls, encryption, and vulnerability scanning.
• Documentation and Knowledge Sharing :
  • Document infrastructure, processes, and incident response procedures.
  • Share knowledge with team members through internal workshops or presentations.

Requirements:

• Education : Bachelor’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field. Master’s degree preferred.
• Experience :
  • Minimum of 5 years in DevOps or SRE roles.
  • Proficiency in cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker).
• Programming and Scripting :
  • Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash, or similar).
  • Familiarity with Git and version control.
• Collaboration and Communication :
  • Excellent teamwork and communication skills.
  • Ability to work across cross-functional teams.
• Problem-Solving and Analytical Skills :
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot complex issues and optimize system performance.
• Certifications (optional):
  • AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, Google Professional DevOps Engineer, or similar.
