EngineeringFrontend Developer

Are you an experienced automation engineer passionate about infrastructure engineering and scalable technology solutions? This remote opportunity offers the chance to design and implement enterprise-grade automation frameworks using Ansible across complex infrastructure environments. You will play a key role in modernizing IT operations, improving efficiency, and reducing manual workloads through Infrastructure-as-Code practices. Working with cloud platforms and advanced DevOps technologies, you will help establish automation standards and best practices. The role combines hands-on technical expertise with architectural leadership, mentoring, and cross-functional collaboration. It is ideal for a seasoned professional looking to drive innovation and operational excellence in a global technology environment.

Design, develop, and maintain enterprise-grade Ansible playbooks, roles, collections, and inventories across development, staging, and production environments.
Build reusable, modular Ansible roles following Galaxy standards and organizational best practices.
Develop and maintain Ansible Collections for internal distribution.
Create custom Ansible modules and plugins in Python, including action, callback, connection, and lookup plugins.
Implement reliable, idempotent, and fault-tolerant automation for operating system hardening, application deployment, configuration management, and cloud provisioning.
Integrate Ansible with CI/CD platforms such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, and Azure DevOps.
Implement automated testing frameworks using Molecule, Testinfra, and pytest.
Administer Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) and AWX, including organizations, inventories, credentials, projects, templates, and workflows.
Apply GitOps practices and manage automation code through Git-based workflows.
Define Ansible coding standards, ansible-lint rules, code review practices, and development guidelines.
Automate AWS, Microsoft Azure, and GCP environments using Ansible cloud modules and dynamic inventories.
Integrate Ansible with Terraform to support hybrid Infrastructure-as-Code workflows.
Automate infrastructure patching, compliance enforcement, configuration management, and drift remediation at scale.
Manage secrets using Ansible Vault and enterprise secrets-management platforms.
Automate CIS Benchmark and STIG-based system hardening and compliance.
Review automation code for security vulnerabilities, including hardcoded credentials, insecure configurations, and excessive privilege escalation.
Conduct Ansible code reviews, mentor junior and mid-level engineers, and establish automation architecture and development standards.
Create architecture documentation, operational runbooks, and onboarding guides.
Evaluate and recommend tools and technologies within the Ansible ecosystem.
