CI/CD Team Lead

at  EIS Group Inc

DESCRIPTION

At EIS our DevOps team is cooperating with highly talented software development professionals. The team is responsible for the support and improvement of DevOps tools for the whole organization and microservices engineering practices. DevOps work at EIS can be very different, starting from implementing Jenkins pipelines using Groovy scripts, Terraform scripts, adjusting Maven, Scala and NPM build processes, extending Helm charts, and ending with researching the best approach to have stable and distilled DevOps practices applied to our product development lifecycle. Our DevOps team is managing 20+ different Cloud accounts for customers, which are mostly on AWS and Azure. Our microservice platform has around 100 pods running in non-scaled mode. Our typical CI/CD environment for engineering contains more than 250 VMs which require 2700+ vCPU, 6.5 TB of RAM. These numbers are even bigger on our managed public cloud accounts for our customers where we are supporting SaaS. It’s lots of responsibility but also lots of fun to work with!
