About the Role
We are hiring Senior Automation Engineers with deep Red Hat enterprise expertise to join a dedicated engineering pod. In this role, you will lead hands-on initiatives to eliminate manual overhead, architect robust Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), and build custom intermediary services to optimize complex CI/CD integrations across enterprise environments.
Key Responsibilities
- IaC & Automation Development: Architect, write, and maintain production-grade Ansible playbooks/roles and enterprise Terraform modules to automate complex infrastructure state management and migrate repository configurations (users, groups, repos) from Gerrit to GitLab seamlessly.
- Red Hat Ecosystem Integration: Leverage Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) / AWX to centralize pipeline execution, manage dynamic inventories, enforce RBAC, and standardize configuration management across enterprise hybrid environments.
- API Integration & Orchestration: Utilize GitLab REST/GraphQL APIs and Jenkins automation endpoints to programmatically execute configuration blueprints, audit permissions, and validate mass-migration execution.
- Proxy & Relay Service Development: Design, write, and maintain custom high-availability translation services (e.g., Python/Go RelayProxy) and ingress routing solutions (nGrok/HAProxy) to ingest, validate, and fan out GitLab webhooks to multiple downstream Jenkins controllers.
- Bulk Execution & Optimization: Lead the automated batch migration and baseline auditing of 40+ enterprise repositories, converting a 2-hour-per-repo manual effort into a scalable, zero-downtime automated pipeline.
- Operational Excellence & Monitoring: Ensure high availability for custom intermediary services, establish health-check endpoints, monitor webhooks delivery, and lead deep-dive root-cause analysis (RCA) on integration bottlenecks.

Must-Have Qualifications
- 4 to 7 years of hands-on experience in enterprise DevOps, system administration, and CI/CD optimization within Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) environments.
- Active Certification Required: Must hold an active Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA) or Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) certification (EX294 / EX200).
- Enterprise Ansible Expertise: Demonstrated ability to write production-ready Ansible roles, collections, and custom modules, with hands-on experience using Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) or AWX.
- IaC Proficiency: Strong experience writing, testing, and maintaining modular Terraform configurations using remote state backends.
- CI/CD & API Integrations: Solid experience administering and programmatically integrating GitLab (REST API) and Jenkins (pipelines, dynamic nodes, webhooks).
- Scripting & Development: Advanced proficiency in Python, Bash, or Go for building light microservices, parsing JSON/YAML payloads, and handling HTTP endpoints.
- Networking & Proxy Infrastructure: Strong foundational knowledge of Red Hat networking, TCP/IP, systemd service setup, reverse proxies (HAProxy/NGINX), and webhook payload transformations.
Good-to-Have / Preferred Qualifications
- Red Hat Certified Specialist in Ansible Automation or Red Hat Certified Specialist in Containers.
- Experience with Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) or Kubernetes container management.
- Background in source control migration mechanics (Git, Gerrit-to-GitLab transition strategies).
- Hands-on exposure to enterprise monitoring and logging stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK).
