Must Have Technical/Functional Skills

Harness CI/CD Dev Ops Engineer (Migration Factory) executes wave-based, repeatable Jenkins → Harness migrations using a factory operating model:
Intake → Convert → Remediate → Validate → Cutover → Stabilize, while driving standardization through golden templates, enterprise integrations (SCM/artifacts/secrets), and controlled legacy CI/CD decommissioning.

Key Responsibilities (Migration Factory Scope)

Migration Intake, Inventory & Segmentation

Perform Jenkins estate discovery: inventory pipelines/jobs, Jenkins files, shared libraries, credentials usage, build agents, plugins; map dependencies and owners.
Classify pipelines into complexity buckets (e.g., Quick Win/Simple, Standard/Medium, Complex) and build wave backlogs for migration execution.
Run migrator assessment to produce a conversion readiness report and list of unsupported patterns (to drive remediation plan).

Platform Foundation for Migration

Implement hands-on readiness required for factory execution: validate network allow lists/proxy/firewall, and ensure delegates/runners are deployed and healthy in target environments.
Configure and validate connectors for SCM, artifact repositories/registries, cloud/K8s targets, and secret stores (Vault / secrets integration where applicable).
Establish/maintain operational runbooks for delegate installation, access troubleshooting, and credential rotation.
Use Harness Jenkins Migrator for bulk conversion and initial YAML generation where applicable.
Refactor conversions to adopt golden templates (build/test/package/scan/deploy/notify patterns) and replace ad‑hoc logic with reusable templates/modules.
Translate Jenkins constructs into Harness equivalents

Remediate Gaps

Replace unsupported Jenkins plugins / Groovy patterns with Harness-native steps or agreed scripts, and convert shared-library logic into reusable templates/modules.
Integrate required enterprise toolchain hooks (e.g., artifact management, code quality gates, smoke tests), aligned to app team inputs.

Validate Shadow Mode & Parity Checks

Execute parallel runs (Jenkins + Harness) for validation to compare outputs of acceptance testing checkpoints.
Produce validation evidence package (shadow run results + parity checks) to support cutover readiness and audit.

Cutover & Stabilize (Hypercare within the factory cycle)

Execute cutover by switching triggers/webhooks/notifications to Harness and keeping Jenkins as rollback for a defined period when required by the plan.
Stabilize builds by monitoring failures, tuning caching, adjusting runner sizing, and addressing recurring pipeline issues; capture improvements back into templates/playbooks.
Run wave retrospectives to update templates, playbooks, and known-issues guidance for the next wave.

Controlled Jenkins Decommission (Factory Exit)

Support controlled Jenkins reduction activities as defined by the migration plan:
Freeze new pipeline creation in Jenkins (new work lands in Harness)
Progressive shutdown (disable triggers → jobs → agents; keep read-only for audit retention)
Plugin & credential cleanup (remove unused creds, rotate secrets, lock down access)
Archive evidence (export build history/logs as required)
Terminate Jenkins infrastructure and reclaim resources

Factory Delivery Model Alignment (Pods & Interfaces)

Work within a pod-based migration factory model that includes:
Migration Pod:
Jenkins inventory & dependency analysis, wave planning, pipeline migration/validation, cutover support, runbooks/handover, hyper care, and decommission support
