Full Job Description
Must-Haves:
Python - Strong Python programming & development skills are required for this role, this role will be leveraging Python to help develop templates and harness AWS services within Python; Extensive Python skills needed; Not so much automating but moreso leveraging Python from development standpoint as it relates to their
AWS - Strong hand's on experience with standard AWS services
Containerization - Strong understanding of how containers work, error messages, etc.. strong containerization background
EKS - Team is migrating this application from EC2 to EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service), so someone with hand's on experience/familiarity with EKS
Nice to Haves:
Other DevOps/CI Tools - Gitlab, Terraform (more of a plus)
Other Programming - Java, J2EE or any other programming language
Notes:
This is a developer role, not a DevOps role or Data Engineering role
Team is responsible for CI/CD tools, multiple tools they own/handle - they own majority of end-to-end DevOps tools in Fannie Mae environment from tooling standpoint (not as an end users but they customize these tools end to end - GitLab, Terraform, Jenkins, etc..) but EKS is the primary focus of this team right now
Develop enhancements & customization (generally in Python & other scripting languages) to support FM centric changes, governance, etc..
We are part of DevOps engineering group but we're looking for developer to come in and a.) take over development aspect of changes they are making and b.) strong understanding of AWS (specifically to EKS), majority of our application is migrating from EC2 to EKS so this is a highly visible scope of work
DevOps resumes are NOT what we are looking for, this is moreso a Developer role
Primarily expertise in Python
Working as part of a development team previously
Developing to enhance application and to enhance functionality of platform - all platform (templates/executions) all done in Python
Heavy container environment, people should be able to understand base images, how it impacts the pipeline, etc.. providing optimized CI/CD pipelines for the enterprise through development
Because of scale of the platform (2000 runners migrating to EKS clusters), need to understand how EKS clusters work, how it impacts CI/CD pipelines
Not doing any build-deploy work, we refine the build-deploy functionality for our DevOps engineers .. develop the platform to enable CI/CD capabilities for the rest of the enterprise
