The Role
Pantheon is in search of a Software Engineer II to become a vital part of our Delivery Engineering (DelEng) team. In this role, you will contribute to building and sustaining the systems, standards, and "paved paths"—our term for seamless, automated workflows that facilitate safe and rapid code deployment.
Our objective is to ensure that releases are inherently reliable, secure, and repeatable across four essential domains:
- Automated Delivery: Upholding standardized CI/CD pipelines and reusable components.
- Deployment Safety: Executing validation, progressive delivery strategies, and automated verification.
- Release Observability: Enhancing the metrics and dashboards that provide visibility and measurability for releases.
- Governance at Scale: Utilizing versioned templates and compliance checks to make secure releases the norm.
What You Will Do
- Execute with Quality: Contribute to platform features with well-defined scope, emphasizing clean implementation and maintainability.
- Build Paved Paths: Assist in managing our cloud resources using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and develop reusable delivery patterns.
- Support Advanced Deployments: Play a role in implementing progressive delivery techniques (e.g., canary rollouts and blue-green deployments) to enhance release safety.
- Collaborate & Support: Work alongside product teams to facilitate the adoption of DelEng tools and participate in the company’s on-call rotation.
- Release Observability: Aid in the development of metrics, logs, and dashboards that allow teams to monitor code performance in production.
