Overview:
A strategic and hands-on Environment Strategy & Integration Lead to drive the completion of a critical enterprise initiative involving multi-environment orchestration, third-party integration scaling, and CI/CD automation across cloud and on-prem workloads.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own and drive the end-to-end strategy to build scalable, parallel, and consistent environment patterns across both cloud and on-premises platforms.
- Lead the design and implementation of dynamic routing patterns for third-party integrations (e.g., Adobe Sign, Salesforce) to support multiple environments using a single shared external QA endpoint.
- Build and roll out repeatable environment configuration patterns to support feature branch testing, mergers & acquisitions integration, and upstream integration testing.
- Partner with DevSecOps, AppDev, Data, and Platform teams to solve long-standing CI/CD bottlenecks, environment drift, and external service routing complexities.
- Assess and remediate hardcoded configurations, enabling full version-controlled, infrastructure-as-code adoption across environments.
- Coordinate efforts to establish and normalize environment mapping for data foundations, legacy applications, and container/VM-based workloads.
- Lead a small team (or influence cross-functional SMEs) to design, pilot, and productionize patterns and inner-source tooling that supports self-service environment creation and deployment.
- Support the transition away from Octopus Deploy to GitHub Actions, where applicable, in collaboration with CI/CD stakeholders.
- Work closely with technical and business leaders to gain alignment, socialize solutions, and take ownership of execution through to delivery.
Must-Have Skills:
- Cloud Platform Expertise:
- Deep experience with AWS, including VPCs, IAM, Route53, networking, and environment management.
- Experience with Terraform for infrastructure automation.
- Hybrid Deployment Proficiency:
- Comfortable working with both containerized workloads (EKS, ECS) and VM-based/legacy applications in on-prem data centers.
- Ability to modernize on-prem deployments and integrate with cloud-native tooling.
- CI/CD Strategy & Implementation:
- Proven experience in defining CI/CD pipelines across mixed environments.
- Strong understanding of GitHub Actions, with working knowledge of Octopus Deploy and strategies for phased migration.
- Environment Management & Routing Design:
- Ability to design and implement routing patterns for third-party integrations across multiple parallel environments.
- Understanding of feature branch environment automation and n/n+1 component testing strategies.
- Communication & Cross-Team Leadership:
- Strong facilitation skills to coordinate across multiple teams and VPs.
- Ability to distill complex problems, define actionable strategies, and gain alignment across stakeholders.
Nice-to-Have Skills:
- Experience supporting mergers & acquisitions, especially with system consolidation and environment parallelization.
- Familiarity with configuration management challenges in legacy systems.
- Previous success in taking enterprise-scale environment transformation projects to the finish line.
- Experience with inner-sourcing practices or shared platform tooling rollouts.
