DevOps Engineer II

This role is remote in the Czech Republic. We are only able to accept applications for those based in the Czech Republic and have sponsorship to live and work in the Czech Republic. 

What you’ll do at Jamf: 

At Jamf, we empower people to be their best selves and do their best work. You will be responsible for the automation and development of our backend infrastructure that powers the Jamf Cloud. This includes providing the internal infrastructure that our Software Development Engineers use to build and deploy Jamf products in the Cloud.  

We are also looking for someone with experience in (or willingness to learn) building automation and development of infrastructure supporting the development of end-user client applications. 

You will join our teams working in Ostrava and Brno which operates in a hybrid mode - some days teams meet in the office but mostly they work remotely. The teams that you’d fit in are focusing on developing Data streams, internal and external Gateway and building the Jamf Trust client application. 

Jamf Trust is developed by 4 teams for 4 different platforms (Windows, Android, iOS and macOS). Each team maintains their CI/CD pipelines built in Jenkins and GitHub actions and their own physical device farms and integrations with 3rd party software like Test Flight, Google Firebase and Microsoft App Center. Eventually, we expect roughly 50% of your capacity to be dedicated to these teams. 

The rest of your capacity will be dedicated to the Onyx team. The team focuses on data streams, a feature which allows customers to send events from Jamf Cloud to customers' SIEM and other logging tools. Along with that the team owns internal and external API gateway. The external gateway is used by Jamf Cloud customers to access APIs. We have our own legacy solution and we also have a new 3rd party solution that will replace the solution in Java. The internal gateway is used by microservices to communicate together and use Dynamic claims. For CI/CD we use pipelines built in GitHub actions and ArgoCD. 

Although you will support multiple teams, Onyx will be your home team so that you always have people to be with and relate to nearby. 

What you can expect to do in this role: 

• Develop, deploy, and maintain production environments by identifying and applying automation, tools, and techniques such as Infrastructure as Code, Configuration as Code, Serverless, and Containerization.  
• Ensure security best practices are identified and integrated into system designs and configuration. 
• Assist in evaluating, planning, configuration, and implementation of new software services. 
• Develop custom tools and automation through programming and scripting.  
• Support Software Development by maintaining and scaling our Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery environment as needed.  
• Apply Data Lifecycle Management to sensitive data through backups, permissions management, and auditing.  
• Participate in an on-call rotation, triaging and escalating alerts, and assisting in disaster recovery as necessary for services the team is responsible for.  
• Member of an Agile Team providing code reviews, velocity estimation, planning input, and participating in other Agile Methodology workflows.  
• Work and communicate effectively with Product Owners, Development teams, and Cloud and Delivery teams.
• Create and maintain technical documentation. 
• Performs other duties as required and completes all job functions as per departmental policies and procedures. 

What we are looking for: 

We seek a passionate engineer eager to learn and explore new grounds. You will be helping with building a global Jamf Cloud API gateway along with a team of talented engineers. Having experience with operating API gateways that connect multiple different systems and expose API to 3rd party customers is a big asset. Many teams across Jamf will contribute to the gateway. Good knowledge of how the CI/CD is done to scale up the delivery of shared components is a big plus. 

Along with that, you will be supporting teams working on end-user app development so any knowledge of CI/CD for client apps, tools like Apple Development Portal, Test Flight, Google Firebase and how to integrate with them is very nice to have. Our older Jenkins pipelines are getting replaced with GitHub actions which is one of the areas we see you helping with. Some teams maintain their own physical device farm so knowing a bit of networking, maintenance of physical devices and how to connect them with cloud infrastructure is a big help. On top of that, we use open-source software to make the farms accessible and usable so any experience with updates of deployed open-source solutions helps as well.
