Engineer IV

Omaha, Nebraska | Contract to Hire | Jul 6, 2026

This engineer will support the Engineering Practices team by helping define, build, and operationalize modern software engineering standards across the enterprise. The role focuses on enabling Dev Sec Ops  adoption through practical implementation of CI/CD automation, architectural fitness functions, artifact promotion patterns, developer self‑service capabilities, and software supply chain governance.

• Hands‑on experience building automated architectural enforcement as CI/CD fitness functions rather than relying on manual review gates
• Practical experience with artifact promotion and immutability patterns (build‑once, promote‑through‑environments) across environments
• Experience building golden paths / paved roads within an internal developer portal that reduce cognitive load and drive self‑service adoption across engineering teams
• Working knowledge of software supply chain and Dev Sec Ops  tooling (SBOM generation, dependency/license scanning, artifact repository policy enforcement, OSS governance workflows)
• Familiarity with CI/CD platforms including self‑hosted runner environments, and experience shifting security/quality checks left into the pipeline
• Strong coding ability across modern languages, with enough legacy‑stack fluency (e.g., Java, EJB) to assess and refactor unfamiliar codebases
• Proven ability to drive adoption of technical standards across engineering orgs without direct authority
• Experience designing tiered technology intake processes that balance governance with developer velocity
• Working knowledge of instrumenting DORA metrics to diagnose systemic delivery constraints
• Familiarity with catalog‑based system health, scorecards, and governance patterns typical of internal developer portal platforms
• Experience acting as a credibility anchor for engineering standards and practices
• Mentorship orientation: raising the technical bar of the broader engineering org

• Build and implement automated architectural and engineering controls within CI/CD pipelines
• Support build‑once, promote‑through‑environments deployment patterns using immutable artifacts and repository controls
• Help design and deliver golden paths within the internal developer portal to reduce developer cognitive load
• Integrate security, quality, OSS, SBOM, dependency, license, and artifact policy checks into CI/CD workflows
• Assist with engineering standards adoption through documentation, review processes, reusable patterns, and coaching
• Support technology intake and OSS governance workflows that balance risk management with developer velocity
• Help instrument and interpret DORA metrics to identify systemic delivery constraints
• Contribute to developer portal scorecards, catalog health indicators, and governance patterns
• Mentor engineering teams and serve as a credible technical partner

The engineer should bring strong hands‑on engineering experience, practical Dev Sec Ops  and CI/CD knowledge, familiarity with modern and legacy application stacks, and the ability to influence engineering adoption through credibility, collaboration, and demonstrated value.
