Sr. DevOps Engineer (ONLY W2)

Project Objectives

• Build the AWS production infrastructure required to support Release Bot.
• Migrate production and test Release Bot functions, API endpoints, deployment workflows, configuration, and integrations.
• Validate deployment and application behavior through smoke, integration, and end-to-end release testing.
• Cut over Release Bot to the production account and decommission the legacy AWS development resources.

Scope of Work

• AWS access and IAM execution-role configuration for Lambda, API Gateway, and deployment operations.
• Four Lambda functions: cut Release, cut Release Test, release Automation Merge back, and release Automation Merge back Test.
• API Gateway routes POST /beta/cut and POST /beta/merge, with production and test stages.
• Lambda runtime, handler, environment variables, secrets, logging, and Datadog related configuration.
• GitHub Actions secrets and parallel deployment jobs for the validation period.
• Slack application endpoint updates, Jira webhook validation, GitHub configuration access, and release-cycle testing.
• Controlled cutover, removal of parallel deployment logic, credential rotation, documentation, and decommissioning.

Responsibilities/Expectations

• Own the migration plan and technical execution from discovery through decommissioning.
• Use infrastructure-as-code or repeatable automation where supported by the existing repository and account standards.
• Preserve existing function names and application behavior unless a change is required and approved.
• Maintain a rollback path until production acceptance is complete.
• Protect credentials and tokens; do not expose secret values in source, logs, tickets, or documentation.
• Produce implementation notes, test evidence, risk decisions, change records, and support documentation.
• Coordinate with CloudOps/SRE, application owners, AWS account administrators, Slack administrators, Jira/GitHub owners, and observability stakeholders.
