Please review the following job description:
The Infrastructure Automation Engineering Manager is a player-coach people leader who builds, leads, and grows a team of automation engineers delivering production-grade infrastructure automation in a regulated financial services environment. The role carries two accountabilities at once: the health, growth, and performance of the engineers on the team, and the reliability of what the team ships across on-premises environments. This manager stays close enough to the work to review a design, question an approach, and unblock an engineer.
Teams may be responsible for infrastructure-as-code, configuration management, CI/CD pipelines, orchestration workflows, self-service platform services, automated testing, policy-as-code controls, compliance automation, operational governance, and engineering reliability initiatives. The manager is accountable for building a high-performing engineering team, ensuring delivery excellence, maintaining engineering standards, and enabling the adoption of scalable automation solutions that improve operational efficiency, resiliency, and risk management across on-premises environments.
Equally important to management craft is an orientation toward continuous learning and adaptive thinking. This role demands a high curiosity quotient and a non-negotiable growth mindset: the manager actively seeks feedback, owns their development gaps, and builds a team culture where questions are asked early, incidents are learned from without blame, and complexity is treated as an invitation rather than a barrier.

A manager sets the learning culture their engineers inherit, and this role is expected to model it visibly.
For this opportunity, Truist will not sponsor an applicant for work visa status or employment authorization, nor will we offer any immigration-related support for this position (including, but not limited to H-1B, F-1 OPT, F-1 STEM OPT, F-1 CPT, J-1, TN-1 or TN-2, E-3, O-1, or future sponsorship for U.S. lawful permanent residence status.)
