What is the position?

As one of our Software Delivery Specialists, you live and breathe the “you build it, you run it” mantra. You help to develop the toolsets and best practices we deliver to the teams we support. Next to that you like to give a training to a team in automation deployment; you enjoy enabling teams in their software delivery.

What are you going to do?

You are passionate about software delivery and work on code quality scanning, automated testing and building deployment pipelines.

You will integrate new testing procedures, as well as deployment procedures. You will investigate which tools can best be used for technology stacks like Xamarin, React, React Native, .NET Core, Python or Node.JS. Common used tools in the current market are Appcenter, Azure DevOps, Github, GitLab, Jenkins, Ansible and SonarQube. Containerization and container platforms can be used such as Docker, Kubernetes and Openshift. You will also work with Cloud-platforms like AWS and Azure.

The team

We are not just a unique and talented team of mobile experts, we are people who share the same values. Our journey is not a very old one, but we are very determined. We truly understand: Our greatest strength is our team!

You will be joining our growing DevOps team. At Xablu we take DevOps very seriously and want to excel at multiple areas within the DevOps field. And we to that from a shared perspective: Together as a team with all the colleagues from other disciplines.

Who are we looking for?

You have a vision on where we should move to and how to get there. Therefore, you own and drive our software development roadmap together with the team. Also, you are very hands-on, meaning you help set up and run CI/CD tools and underlying infrastructure on an enterprise scale.

You lead by example when it comes to CI/CD by automating everything you do in code. You inspire teams to adopt automation and CI/CD practices through knowledge sharing and training sessions. You document best practices in our internal knowledge base.

We are looking for a grounded person who keeps calm during busy days and is able to reflect this on others. When there is some quick solution thinking necessary, you already have some options in mind and ready to share it with the team. You know how to provide guidance to others, not just because you have the knowledge available but also because it comes naturally to you.
