Your mission:As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in driving our enterprise IT transformation.You will act as the technical backbone for both operational continuity and migration execution, ensuring a seamless transition from our legacy Linux-hosted Atlassian suite (Jira, Jira Service Management, Confluence) to a modern, containerized OpenSource ecosystem (Zammad, OpenProject, and XWiki) deployed on Red Hat OpenShift.
In this hybrid role, you will bridge the gap between frontend integration and backend platform reliability. On one hand, you will maintain the existing Atlassian suite. On the other hand, you will actively build the migration tools, custom forms, and integrations required for the new OpenSource stack. This includes developing custom Zammad integration forms to replace Jira Service Management, maintaining API gateways, and configuring workflow orchestration engines.
Operating entirely within our enterprise OpenShift environments, you will deploy, tune, and run secure, scalable application instances and gateway services. You will drive infrastructure automation via Terraform and Ansible, implement GitOps practices using ArgoCD, and handle day-to-day platform operations. Finally, you will monitor system health and performance and actively participate in the team's shifts and on-call rotations to guarantee high availability and system uptime throughout the entire migration lifecycle.
