Jeddah, Saudi Arabia Posted on 06/25/2026

CoorB is all about digital finance. We build full fledged innovative solutions with a focus on process automation, user experience enhancement, and advanced data analytics. With our extensive industry expertise, we help achieve operational excellence, future proof your IT investments, and ensure a competitive edge in the ever evolving finance industry.

Role Overview

The Dev Ops & Release Management Engineer is the gatekeeper of our production environment, responsible for architecting and executing the continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) strategy across our entire financial technology ecosystem. You will ensure seamless, zero downtime releases for our core platforms (Fineract and ERPNext) alongside our proprietary custom stack (mobile applications, Java/Spring Boot middleware, credit decision engine, and BPM workflows).

Operating entirely within Google Cloud Platform (GCP KSA), you will champion infrastructure as code (IaC), container orchestration, and strict release governance to meet the high availability demands of the KSA financial sector.

• Release Planning & Governance:
  Own the Release Management lifecycle: schedule, coordinate, and manage releases across development, QA, UAT and production environments.
• Define and enforce strict release gates, change management controls, and rollback procedures to ensure system stability and compliance with SAMA regulatory requirements.
• Maintain comprehensive audit trails of all deployments and infrastructure changes for compliance and security reviews.
• Design, build, and maintain robust automated CI/CD pipelines for a diverse tech stack, accommodating monolithic packaged applications (ERPNext) and modern microservices.
• Automate testing integration, code quality checks, and security scanning within the deployment pipelines for custom built middleware, mobile apps, and decision engines.
• Manage environment consistency and configuration drift across all tiers.
• Manage and scale the underlying GCP infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform).
• Administer and optimize Kubernetes (K8s) clusters for the deployment of proprietary microservices, ensuring efficient resource utilization, auto scaling and high availability.
• Manage service meshes, API gateways, and identity/access management configurations (e.g., Keycloak) critical to the middleware's security architecture.
• Implement advanced telemetry, logging, and monitoring solutions across the GCP environment (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack) to proactively detect post release anomalies.
• Collaborate closely with the ITSM Lead and L3 Engineering to troubleshoot deployment failures, database migration issues (e.g., PostgreSQL) and complex network routing problems.

Qualifications & Technical Requirements

• Experience:
  
  5+ years of experience in Dev Ops, Cloud Engineering and Release Management, ideally within banking, fintech or a highly regulated industry.
• Cloud & Infrastructure:
  Deep, hands on expertise with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and container orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes.
• CI/CD & Automation:
  Proficiency with enterprise CI/CD tools (e.g., Git Lab CI, Jenkins, ArgoCD) and configuration management.
• Technical Stack Knowledge:
  Experience deploying and managing Java (Spring Boot) and Python applications.
• Strong understanding of relational databases, specifically PostgreSQL, and handling automated database migrations during releases.
• Familiarity with the deployment architectures of Fineract and/or ERPNext (Frappe framework) is highly advantageous.
• Scripting:
  Strong scripting skills (Bash, Python) for automating routine operational tasks.
• Process Acumen:
  Deep understanding of Agile methodologies, ITIL release management frameworks, and blue/green or canary deployment strategies.
