DevOps Engineer III

Seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to lead the migration of existing CI/CD pipelines from Jenkins to Harness. This is a critical, time-bound initiative with a target to retire Jenkins by year-end. The ideal candidate is highly self-driven, requires minimal handholding, and can engage directly with the Harness team to ensure a smooth transition. Key Responsibilities • Lead the end-to-end migration of CI/CD pipelines from Jenkins to Harness. • Conduct discovery and research to understand the existing pipeline architecture and workflows. • Drive technical discussions with the Harness team to identify best practices and resolve integration challenges. • Learn and adapt to GoLang quickly for pipeline scripting and automation (no current internal support for Harness or GoLang). • Ensure successful conversion and operational readiness of pipelines within the 3-month project window. • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to validate builds, deployments, and environment configurations in Harness. • Document migration process, architecture changes, and operational guidelines for long-term maintainability. Required Qualifications • 7+ years of hands-on DevOps engineering experience. • Proven experience migrating or implementing CI/CD pipelines, particularly with Jenkins. • Strong expertise in Harness (preferred) or demonstrable ability to quickly ramp up and lead in a new tool with minimal guidance. • Familiarity with GoLang or ability to learn it independently within a short timeframe. • Deep understanding of CI/CD concepts, build pipelines, and release management. • Strong communication skills and the ability to lead technical conversations with vendors and internal stakeholders. • Self-starter with a results-driven mindset; able to deliver under tight deadlines. Nice-to-Have Skills • Prior experience with enterprise-scale DevOps migrations. • Knowledge of containerization (Docker/Kubernetes). • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
