Role overview

We are looking for a hands‑on DevOps Architect to lead a next‑generation automation initiative where AI‑generated Ansible playbooks are triggered via Jira tickets and executed through a GitOps‑driven CI/CD pipeline.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own the end‑to‑end automation lifecycle - from Jira ticket intake through AI‑generated Ansible playbooks to execution, validation, and feedback loops.
• Design and govern GitOps‑based CI/CD pipelines, ensuring all infrastructure changes are version‑controlled, auditable, and policy‑driven.
• Validate and verify AI‑generated outputs, critically assessing Ansible playbooks for correctness, security, and operational readiness before execution.
• Architect and integrate automation workflows across major hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP), ensuring consistency and portability.
• Define and enforce secure automation practices, including secrets management, RBAC, and least‑privilege access across environments.
• Build validation and integration tooling using scripting and APIs to automate quality checks and system integrations.
• Bridge AI capabilities with real‑world DevOps delivery, collaborating with engineering and platform teams to align automation outcomes with business needs.

Requirements:

• Strong hands‑on experience with Ansible, including architecture design, playbook authoring, troubleshooting, and best practices.
• Solid cloud experience with at least one major hyperscaler (AWS, Azure, or GCP), ideally in multi‑cloud or hybrid setups.

• Proficiency in scripting (Python, Bash, or similar) to build automation, validation, and integration logic.
