Own and evolve our Jenkins Shared Library powering multi-language builds (Java/Maven, Node/NPM, Python, Helm, Terraform, containers). Deliver fast, secure, provenance-rich pipelines (SLSA, SBOM, digests) and strengthen supply chain integrity across teams.

Core Responsibilities

  • Design and maintain Groovy pipeline steps (build, test, package, scan, deploy).
  • Extend Python tooling for SLSA provenance, SBOM generation, hash/digest accuracy, and security scan aggregation (SonarQube, Sonatype IQ, SAST/Container).
  • Optimize performance (parallel builds, caching, scope-reduced BOMs, dependency prefetch).
  • Ensure artifact integrity (correct SHA1/SHA256 mapping, reproducible inputs, evidence modelling).
  • Refactor legacy scripts (remove global state, consolidate hashing, standardize templates).
  • Document ci-config.yaml standards and usage patterns.
  • Mentor engineers on secure pipeline development and supply-chain practices. Troubleshoot and prevent pipeline incidents.
  • 7+ years engineering; 3+ in CI/CD platform or DevSecOps.
  • Strong Jenkins + Groovy shared library expertise.
  • Advanced Python automation (JSON/YAML processing, tooling scripts).
  • Deep Maven/NPM/Python packaging knowledge; exposure to Helm/Terraform and container image metadata.
  • Experience with SonarQube, Sonatype IQ, container and SAST scanning.
  • Proven performance tuning (caching, parallelization, dependency pruning). Compliance Awareness.

Nice-to-Have

  • Terraform module and Helm chart publishing patterns.
  • GitOps or release automation experience.

Soft Skills

  • Ownership mindset, able to operate with minimal supervision.
