The Intermediate Dev Ops Specialist is a core member of our Satellite Operations team, responsible for bridging the gap between development and operations to ensure seamless deployment and operation of software systems that support the CHORUS satellite mission. As a key member of the team, you will collaborate with Satellite Operation Specialists and other stakeholders to implement and support continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines that automate software build, test, and delivery for our satellite operations systems.

You will work closely with Cyber Security and Sec Ops to ensure that CI/CD pipelines integrate with code quality and code security static analysis tools, as well as open source software vulnerability scanners, to maintain the highest level of security and integrity. Additionally, you will collaborate with Software Developers to integrate test automation into the CI/CD pipeline, ensuring seamless and efficient testing and deployment of software updates.

As a member of our Dev Ops practice, you will be expected to contribute to the continuous learning and continuous improvement process, helping to evolve and improve our Dev Ops processes, practices, and tools to adapt to changing technological and business needs that support the success of our satellite missions.
