Role Purpose

Matillion is built around small development teams with responsibility for specific themes and initiatives. We are now looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to work in our Release Engineering team. This role is based in Hyderabad in India. How do you release updates and changes to Matillion's platform that makes the world's data useful without users ever noticing a glitch in service?

Our Release Engineering team is part of Matillion’s Internal Engineering Platform organization and takes on this very challenge. As a member of the team, you work with Software Engineers to ensure our services and products seamlessly move from development all the way through to production. This requires scripting and coding with an eye toward scalability so that big deployments can be broken down and distributed across regions. Using your leadership and technical expertise, you will design and implement complex application releases processes and tooling. You will serve as a subject matter expert in areas such as source control, build, branching, continuous integration, test infrastructure, release configuration, deployment, and general release best practices.

Our Release Engineering advocates for the underlying design elements, developer platforms, product components, and infrastructure at Matillion. These are the essential building blocks for excellent, safe, and coherent experiences for our users and drive the pace of innovation for every developer. We look across Matillion to build central solutions, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems

What you will be doing

    • Release Engineering
    • Self-Service Model - Develop tools that allow our product development teams to control and run their own release processes. 
    • Ensure our builds are hermetic - insensitive to the libraries and other installed software.
    • Governance and enforcement of policies and procedures around changes, releases, etc.
    • Design and implement tools and processes that drive high velocity in our code deployments.
    • Improve our tools for continuous integration, automated testing, and release management.

    • Design and develop code that glues together various applications in our CI/CD pipelines.
    • Maintain the build process to support ongoing Research and Development.
    • Perform administration, troubleshooting, and provide support to all engineers.

Self Development and Growth

    • Develop new skills by working with other members of the team
    • Work with the Team Lead and Manager to identify training goals
    • Partake in technical discussions within the team
    • Actively identify and complete opportunities for self-training and external training
    • Drive the team’s process of continual improvement

What we are looking for

    • Essential Skills
    • 5+ years of experience with DevOps and/or SRE
    • Experience with code signing and build management tools (Gradle, Maven, ant etc).
    • Experience with multiple CI/CD tools (preferably, CircleCI), systems and processes.
    • Familiarity with software configuration management systems and source code version control systems (specifically, GitHub)
    • Metrics driven: you are proficient in measuring success, value and gaps.
    • A strong background in software engineering and release engineering, with coding experience in one or more of the following languages/libraries/platforms: Java, Groovy, JavaScript/Typescript, NodeJS, Python, Go, AWS, Docker, Serverless, React, Terraform

Personal Capabilities Required

    • Inquisitiveness- digging into problems and solutions to understand the underlying technology
    • Autonomy - ability to work on a task and solve problems independently 
    • Motivation - sets personal challenges and constantly looking to stretch themselves
    • Problem solving - recognition of problems and recasting difficult-to-solve problems in order to find unique and innovative solutions
    • Integrity - honest and transparent in dealing, open to voice and accept criticism, is trustworthy and builds credibility through actions
    • Detail focussed - pays attention to the details and can make a conscious effort to understand causes instead of just the effects
    • Big picture aware - understands the scope and impact of a problem or solution
