This role collaborates deeply with engineering, product, QA, architecture, and security teams to design and operate automated infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and self-service developer platforms. The manager mentors DevOps engineers, drives continuous improvement of existing systems, and ensures DevOps practices measurably improve reliability, performance, and delivery speed across the SDLC.
About the Role:

- Lead and drive DevOps strategy and execution by establishing standards, tooling, and best practices for cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and automation across the engineering organization.

- Manage, mentor, and develop a high performing DevOps engineering team,including offshore resources, through technical guidance, career development, performance management, and hands-on coaching.

- Design, implement, and operate scalable, highly available, and secure cloud platforms using infrastructure as code, container orchestration, serverless technologies, and managed cloud services.

- Own and evolve CI/CD pipelines and release automation, ensuring reliable, repeatable, and secure software delivery that improves deployment frequency, quality, and lead time.

- Act as a change agent for DevOps culture, collaborating closely with software engineering, QA, product, architecture, and security teams to improve developer experience, system reliability, and delivery velocity.

- Enable developer self-service and autonomy by building and maintaining automation frameworks, internal tools, and standardized workflows that reduce cognitive load and manual toil.

- Partner with security and architecture teams to embed security and compliance controls into infrastructure and pipelines, including secrets management, access control, system hardening, and auditability.

- Drive operational excellence and reliability by implementing monitoring, logging, alerting, and incident response practices, and by leading root cause analysis and continuous improvement efforts.

- Evaluate and influence technology decisions, including tool selection, architecture standards, cloud services, and build vs. buy tradeoffs, balancing cost, scalability, reliability, and time to value.

- Plan and lead complex, cross-functional technical initiatives, managing scope, dependencies, risks, and timelines while communicating clearly with technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
