Sr. C++ Developer with a DevOps mindset

Fully Remote

Salary Range – $100K/year

Will you enjoy being part of a fully-remote “Tiger Team” set to transform a flagship project’s quality and development processes?

For one of our largest clients (100K+ people worldwide), we are building a 5-person tiger team to join one of its flagship projects tasked with rapidly improving the quality and processes used. The tiger-team will report to the “Head of Software Transformation” and will own the transformation of this flagship project.

As a part of the tiger team, you will be implementing software development best practices:

• Jenkins based CICD pipelines
• Git flows
• Unit-testing infrastructure and code-coverage
• Static code-analysis
• Setting up  quality gates that ensure that code delivered meets or exceeds the desired quality bar

This is a six-month approved project that will probably turn into a full-time long-term one once ROI is shown.

You will 🗺️

• Rebuild, modernize, stabilize and repair the CI/CD environment
  • CI on main branch
  • Review current status of compiler warnings and static code analysis warnings and set up a strategy to handle those (suppress vs clean-up by the engineering teams)
  • Stabilize CI/CD configuration
  • Rebuild the CI environment using modern standards, facilitate easy reporting
  • Consolidate all Jenkins phases into a coherent view
• Improve the CI/CD coverage to include testing – Unit tests and Functional tests
  • Include all existing unit test into CI/CD runs
  • Include all available automated tests into CI/CD on main and development branches
  • Complement CI environment with a CD environment on the main branch
  • Complement CI environment with a CD environment on the development branch
  • Integrate tools in CI/CD to facilitate code quality tracking and improvement
• Simplify the CI/CD environment to minimize redundant steps, branches and merges
  • Any break in CI/CD becomes the team’s highest priority to resolve
  • Additional check ins are not allowed while CI/CD is broken (automate that)
  • Move from a layered branching structure for development, task and release into an industry-standard model of development/release

You’d be a great fit if you ❤️

• Are a Sr. C++ developer with a passion for DevOps
• Got 5+ years of experience in software development
• Experience in setting and configuring Jenkins CICD pipelines
• Experience with Git and Git flows
