Software doesn't do anyone any good until it's running in production. Opower is growing the team that builds and runs the systems that connect our source code to our customers. We continuously improve our build and deployment tools and create new tools as our needs evolve. Our standards for the reliability, repeatability and flexibility of those tools are high. Every improvement to the process of build and release adds productivity to every member of the engineering team.
Opower is looking for someone to define and drive the implementation for our build and release vision - ranging from how developers do their daily jobs to how code makes it onto every tier. You will work closely with sys admins, developers, software engineers in tests, and release engineers to help reliably deliver software that solves our business needs.
You are a bridge-builder, someone who values communication and transparency. You love automating manual processes. You get excited when debating the relative merits of Jenkins versus Bamboo and can go toe to toe with anyone over whether continuous deployment is really possible.
Core Responsibilities:
- Automate release management processes
- Design, implement, and maintain software configuration / release scripts and processes
- Work with our Operations team to schedule and manage releases to Dev, Test and Production environments
- Develop and document configuration management and deployment strategy
About You:
- Genuine enjoyment of automation, configuration management, and deployment practices, which you've been doing professionally for at least 5 years
- Desire for enormous ownership and impact in a young, fast-paced company
- Exceptional critical thinking and problem solving skills
- Professional, positive attitude, strong work ethic, great communication skills, and ability to work as a team
- Expertise with our tool suite or a similar set, including Svn & Git, Ruby, Maven, Capistrano and Jenkins
- Experience with installation and configuration of Jetty, Apache, and common Rails servers such as Passenger or Mongrel
