Senior Engineer - DevOps, Onsite

Senior Dev Ops Engineer

Bass Pro Shops is seeking a Senior Dev Ops Engineer to join our platform engineering team. This is a high-ownership, high-impact role at the center of how we build, ship, and operate software  will be responsible for managing and continuously improving software delivery across hundreds of CI/CD pipelines, operating a multi-regional Azure Kubernetes footprint, and ensuring our platform is secure, observable, and resilient.

You'll work across the full spectrum of platform engineering — from pipeline security scanning and Git Ops delivery to distributed data infrastructure and global traffic management. If you want to own a platform that touches everything and has real engineering depth, this is the role.

This role is required to be onsite in Springfield, Missouri.

• Own and maintain hundreds of Git Hub Actions CI/CD pipelines across multiple teams and repositories
• Integrate and manage security scanning tooling (SAST, container image scanning, dependency scanning, secrets detection) across the full pipeline estate; enforce scan gates and triage findings at scale
• Implement and maintain Git Ops workflows using FluxCD and/or ArgoCD; manage fleet-level configuration drift, reconciliation, and progressive delivery
• Package and version applications using Helm charts; maintain internal chart libraries and manage release workflows
• Drive improvements in build performance, deployment strategies (blue/green, canary, rolling), and rollback capabilities

• Manage and operate Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters across environments — including cluster lifecycle, RBAC, network policies, autoscaling, and workload placement
• Author and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Terraform — modules covering Azure networking (VNets, subnets, NSGs, private endpoints, peering), compute, storage, AKS, and managed services
• Manage container image build pipelines, Azure Container Registry (ACR), base image governance, and automated vulnerability scanning
• Manage secrets and sensitive configuration through Azure Key Vault; enforce least-privilege access across pipelines and services

• Architect and operate multi-regional Azure footprints including cross-region failover, geo-replication, and latency-aware traffic design
• Configure and manage Akamai edge policies — CDN, WAF, DDoS mitigation, TLS offload, and API Gateway rules
• Implement and maintain Azure Traffic Manager for DNS-level global load balancing, health probing, and regional failover

• Design and operate Apache Kafka infrastructure — broker configuration, topic and partition management, consumer group tuning, schema governance, and multi-cluster replication
• Manage MongoDB deployments (replica sets, sharding, backup/restore strategies) on Kubernetes and/or Azure-managed equivalents
• Support Redis deployments — clustering, eviction policies, persistence, and high availability configuration

• Build and maintain observability pipelines using the Elastic Stack and Open Telemetry — log aggregation, distributed tracing, and metrics from infrastructure through application layers
• Support and enforce security and compliance postures aligned with PCI DSS and CIS Benchmark standards at the infrastructure, Kubernetes, and pipeline layers
• Participate in on-call rotations and incident response; conduct post-mortems and drive reliability improvements

• 5–8 years of experience in a Dev Ops, platform engineering, or site reliability role
• Proven experience managing and securing CI/CD pipelines at scale (100+ pipelines) using Git Hub Actions, including integration of security scanning tools (Trivy, Dependabot, or equivalent)
• Deep hands-on experience with AKS and Kubernetes — RBAC, network policies, resource management, cluster upgrades, and multi-environment operations
• Strong Terraform skills — module authoring, state management, workspace strategy, and Azure resource coverage
• Production experience with FluxCD or ArgoCD in a Git Ops delivery model
• Proficiency with Helm — authoring charts, managing dependencies, and release workflows
• Solid understanding of Azure networking — VNets, NSGs, route tables, private endpoints, DNS, and peering
• Experience with Azure Key…
