Senior DevOps Engineer

Aqua Security is seeking a seasoned Senior DevOps Engineer to join our CloudOps team. In this pivotal role, you will be the architect of our delivery ecosystems, designing and scaling high-performance CI/CD engines and Kubernetes-based infrastructure across multi-cloud environments.

You will bridge the gap between code and production, leveraging GitOps principles and advanced automation to accelerate our SaaS and On-Prem release cycles. If you thrive on building "Infrastructure as Code," mastering complex Jenkins pipelines, and securing cloud-native systems at scale, this is your next challenge.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect CI/CD Ecosystems: Design, implement, and maintain enterprise-grade CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Shared Libraries (Groovy) to standardize delivery across R&D.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Drive the automation of global cloud footprints (AWS) using Terraform, ensuring modularity, reusability, and state management.
• Kubernetes Orchestration: Manage and optimize large-scale EKS clusters, focusing on high availability, auto-scaling, and cost-optimization.
• GitOps Advocacy: Implement and champion GitOps workflows to ensure the "source of truth" always resides in Git, automating deployments and drift detection.
• Advanced Scripting: Develop sophisticated tooling and automation logic using Python and Bash to eliminate manual toil.
• Hybrid Cloud Delivery: Support complex release automation for both high-velocity SaaS environments and secure On-Prem deployments.
• System Reliability: Troubleshoot complex production bottlenecks, optimize container performance, and mentor junior engineers on best practices.

Requirements:

• Experience: 5+ years of experience in DevOps/SRE roles, with at least 3 years focused on high-scale CI/CD architecture.
• Jenkins & Groovy Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of Jenkins, including Pipeline-as-Code and writing custom Groovy Shared Libraries.
• AWS Expertise: Extensive, hands-on experience with AWS core services (EC2, S3, IAM, VPC) and deep proficiency with EKS.
• Kubernetes Specialist: Comprehensive knowledge of K8s internals, including Helm charts, ingress controllers, CNI, and service meshes.
• Terraform Pro: Proven track record of managing production environments solely through Terraform.
• Developer Mindset: Strong proficiency in Python for automation and tool development, complemented by expert-level Bash scripting.
• Git Professional: Deep understanding of Git internals, complex branching strategies (GitFlow, Trunk-based), and Hook management.
• Modern Delivery: Practical experience implementing GitOps (e.g., ArgoCD or Flux) and container security best practices.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Go (Golang) for custom Kubernetes operators.
• Familiarity with multi-cloud deployments (GCP/Azure) and OpenShift.
• Background in security-focused DevOps (DevSecOps).
