Job Description

Summary

AOI is looking for an experienced Senior DevOps/DevSecOps Engineer to drive the operational efficiency of our embedded firmware development, application software, and large-scale network monitoring SW engineering efforts.

Job Duties

Design, implement, and maintain robust automated CI/CD pipelines for embedded firmware and application software - building, testing, and deployment.
Collaborate software developers and QA to ensure that firmware updates and application features are deployed securely and efficiently.
Design and implement automated security controls within CI/CD pipelines to ensure "secure-by-default" patterns for AOI’s software.
Conduct regular SAST, DAST, and SCA (Software Composition Analysis) vulnerability scans to identify and remediate risks.
Perform application risk profiling and threat modeling for new features and network architecture changes.
Lead incident response efforts, including root-cause analysis and implementation of preventative improvements.
Ensure systems meet industry standards (EX: NIST) and customer requirements.
Mentorship and train development teams on secure coding practices and foster a "shift-left" security culture.

Required Technical Skills

Proficiency in C/C++ and understanding of embedded Linux, bootloaders, and RTOS.
Strong command of Python, Bash, or Go.
Hands-on experience with Docker/Kubernetes for managing network-facing application software and microservices and tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, and Terraform.
Expertise in security tools like Snyk, Checkmarx, Trivy, or OWASP ZAP.
Experience using hardware and network debuggers, such as Wireshark, JTAG, or logic analyzers, to troubleshoot complex hardware-software interactions.

Qualifications

Experience: 5+ years in a DevOps/DevSecOps, SRE, or Firmware Engineering role, specifically within the telecommunications or cable industry.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering, Electrical Engineering.
Certifications: (Preferred) AWS Certified DevOps Engineer, CISSP, CISM, or Certified DevSecOps Professional (CDP).

Location

This position will be on-site based in Duluth, GA.
