About the role:
You will build the pipelines and automation that let API changes and Kong configuration reach production safely and the same way every time. Your work turns manual onboarding steps into self service, with security checks built in.
What you will do:
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines that test, scan and deploy API and Kong gateway configuration through IRS environments.
- Manage gateway and platform configuration as code in Git, with peer review and versioned releases.
- Write infrastructure as code and configuration automation for OpenShift and cloud resources.
- Add security and validation checks to every pipeline so nothing reaches production without passing them.
- Automate repeatable onboarding tasks, such as consumer setup, certificate updates and policy changes, toward self service.
- Connect pipelines to IRS change control and ticketing, including ServiceNow records and Change Advisory Board (CAB) approvals.
- Script daily configuration backups and support quarterly restore tests.
- Document pipelines and hand over knowledge to the operations team.
