Pay Rate: CAD$50/HR INC
Interview Type: Face 2 Face (Onsite Interview Only)
We are seeking a Cloud Automation & DevOps Engineer to design, automate, and support enterprise container platforms and CI/CD capabilities. The successful candidate will work with development, infrastructure, security, and operations teams to standardize software delivery, improve platform reliability, automate operational activities, and support cloud-native applications.
The role requires strong hands-on experience with OpenShift, Kubernetes, GitOps, CI/CD automation, observability, secrets management, Linux, and scripting. The selected candidate will also support production troubleshooting, platform migrations, and reusable engineering solutions.
Key Responsibilities
Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines and reusable automation workflows.
Deploy and support containerized applications on OpenShift and Kubernetes.
Develop reusable GitHub Actions and GitLab CI templates to standardize application delivery.
Implement GitOps-based deployments using tools such as Argo CD, Flux, and Helm.
Automate infrastructure and operational activities using Python, Bash, Ansible, and similar tools.
Integrate applications and delivery pipelines with enterprise secrets-management platforms.
Build and support observability capabilities across logs, metrics, and distributed traces.
Develop automated platform validation, monitoring, and remediation solutions.
Support the migration of applications and microservices from legacy container or virtualization platforms to OpenShift.
Troubleshoot CI/CD, container, infrastructure, networking, and production runtime issues.
Implement code-quality and security controls within delivery pipelines.
Participate in incident response, root-cause analysis, and continuous service improvement.
Create technical documentation, operating procedures, and reusable platform standards.
Collaborate with application teams to improve developer experience and release reliability.
Required Skills
Strong experience with OpenShift, Kubernetes, Docker, or Podman.
Hands-on experience with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or comparable CI/CD platforms.
Experience with Argo CD, Helm, Git, and GitOps delivery practices.
Strong scripting and automation skills using Python and Bash.
Experience working in Linux-based enterprise environments.
Experience integrating HashiCorp Vault or a comparable secrets-management solution.
Experience with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Elasticsearch, Kibana, or Jaeger.
Understanding of microservices, container networking, and cloud-native application architecture.
Experience supporting production systems and resolving platform or deployment incidents.
Knowledge of code-quality tools such as SonarQube.
Preferred Skills
Experience with Ansible, StackStorm, Zabbix, or automated remediation.
Exposure to AWS, GCP, OpenStack, VMware, or Rancher.
Familiarity with Active Directory and LDAP integrations.
Experience with PostgreSQL, MySQL, DB2, or MongoDB.
Programming exposure to Java, Node.js, C#, or C++.
