Senior DevOps Engineer

About the work

Our customer provides a code quality and code security platform. Stride delivers their high-touch onboarding program for strategic customers as a partner. Each engagement runs about 60 hours over roughly 90 days: a maturity assessment, a roadmap workshop, then a tailored set of trainings and advisory sessions with weekly cadence calls.

Scope note: the work is strictly advisory (assessments, training, best-practice guidance, roadmaps). No hands-on implementation in customer environments.

What you'll do

• Run maturity assessments of partner’s customer platforms and debrief findings with stakeholders
• Lead roadmap workshops that turn findings into a prioritized execution plan
• Deliver trainings and workshops: developer best practices, IDE adoption, quality gates and governance for managers, security, and compliance audiences
• Advise on integrating SonarQube scans into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, Jenkins)
• Guide heavier initiatives: server-to-cloud migration, Enterprise-to-Data Center upgrades, monitoring, instance consolidation
• Run weekly cadence calls and own deliverables: assessment findings, roadmap doc, mid-point status update

Must-haves (these come straight from Sonar's partner requirements)

• Software development and/or DevOps background: SDLC, CI/CD, IDEs
• Hands-on experience with DevOps platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket) and/or CI tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure Pipelines)
• Working knowledge of local and cloud deployment tech: Linux, Windows, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, Terraform
• Customer-facing experience in a technical setting: educating on best practices, acting as a trusted technical advisor

Nice-to-haves

• SonarQube or SonarLint familiarity
• AppSec literacy: SAST, secrets detection, SCA, dependency and license risk
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development workflows
• Experience running structured consulting engagements independently

Training provided

Customer certifies whoever we staff before they deliver: a few hours of required Learning Center courses plus a 6-hour bootcamp with a customer Technical Advisor.
