DevOps Engineer

Looking for a DEVSECOPS!

You will work engineer in the DEVSECOPS team which focusses on the automation of the software delivery chain with security embedded:

• Implement and document the automatic deployment of our software (developed software, operating systems, utility software etc.) including the necessary tools to monitor the install base.
• Execute the first installation / update / patch in production in collaboration with the SYS ADMIN team during a intervention. From then on the SYS ADMIN team is responsible for the roll-out towards the other signaling-boxes. DEVSECOPS still provides support to the SYS ADMIN team during the rollout in case of issues and gathers feedback in order to further improve the process. The frequency of these interventions is about one per quarter. These usually take place on site during the night.
• Active monitoring of vulnerabilities and security related tasks and projects
• Patch management of development and production environments
• Deployment, maintenance and support of development environments in INTRANET
• Testing, documenting and implementation of new technologies and concepts: improving DEVSECOPS chain
• Second level support for the EBP software and IT equipment in the signal zones
• Occasional mounting/assembly work of IT equipment in computer rooms and control rooms
