The Agent DevOps team works closely with our agent development, backend, and quality engineering groups to enable each team to work as efficiently as possible with an aim to release a market-leading product. We build infrastructure in multiple clouds, do a lot of systems programming with the various operating systems/versions, and build scalable pipelines to increase automation and testing of our product. Our goal as a team is to be a catalyst to our internal customers while simultaneously increasing velocity and safety of our releases. Work in DevOps builds polyglot experience in multiple areas of technology, and we typically have our hands in everything. Development experience will be equally as important as operations.
Our primary tech stack consists of git/GitLab/pipelines, Packer, Terraform, C++, Python, and shell scripting as we work with our agent teams. AWS is our primary cloud (various services), though we also use Azure. Systems programming experience in any operating system (Windows, Linux, or macOS) is an everyday skill. There is also opportunity on the backend side to work with Kubernetes, containers, and Go.
