We are looking for a Build and Release Engineer to join our dynamic software development team. This role is critical in ensuring the smooth and efficient delivery of software products through the development lifecycle. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in software engineering, continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD), and version control systems.
As a Build and Release Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining build and release pipelines that support our development and operations teams. You will work closely with developers, QA engineers, and system administrators to automate and streamline our build and deployment processes. Your goal will be to ensure that software builds are reliable, repeatable, and delivered on time.
You will manage source code repositories, configure build environments, and troubleshoot build failures. You will also be responsible for maintaining and improving our CI/CD infrastructure, including tools such as Jenkins, Git, Docker, and Kubernetes. In addition, you will help enforce best practices for source control, branching strategies, and release management.
This position requires excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. You should be comfortable working with multiple programming languages and platforms, and have a passion for automation and continuous improvement.
If you are a self-motivated engineer with a strong desire to improve software delivery processes and ensure high-quality releases, we encourage you to apply.
