Job Description
Lead DevOps Engineer – Late Shift, 2 PM - 10 PM
NICE
• Drive infrastructure standardization and operational excellence by designing and developing scalable automation frameworks in Python that enable consistent and repeatable deployments across cloud and on-premises environments. • Accelerate infrastructure provisioning by building and enhancing Terraform code-generation platforms using Python and Jinja2, enabling teams to produce validated, environment-specific infrastructure code from reusable templates. • Improve system reliability and compliance by developing and maintaining Puppet modules, manifests, and Hiera configurations that manage Linux and Windows environments at scale. • Increase operational efficiency across Windows platforms by creating robust PowerShell automation solutions for server management, Active Directory administration, and hybrid cloud integrations. • Simplify complex infrastructure workflows by developing internal automation tools, command-line utilities, and APIs that empower engineering teams to self-service common operational tasks. • Enhance the speed and safety of infrastructure delivery by integrating automation frameworks with CI/CD pipelines, enabling automated validation, testing, and deployment of infrastructure changes. • Improve software quality and reduce deployment risk by implementing comprehensive testing strategies for infrastructure code, including unit testing, linting, and integration testing. • Partner closely with cloud, platform, and application teams to identify manual processes, eliminate operational toil, and drive automation-first solutions across the organization. • Enable long-term scalability and maintainability by creating clear documentation, standards, and runbooks for automation frameworks and infrastructure templates. • Contribute to a strong engineering culture by participating in code reviews, sharing best practices, and continuously improving the quality, security, and maintainability of automation solutions.
Job Requirements
- 5+ years of Python development experience — not scripting, but structured, testable application code
- Strong understanding of Python packaging, virtual environments, dependency management (pip, Poetry), and code quality tooling (pylint, black, mypy)
- Experience building CLI tools and automation frameworks using Python (Click, Typer, or similar)
- Hands-on experience with Jinja2 templating — building reusable, parameterised templates for configuration and infrastructure code generation
- Experience with pytest for unit and integration testing of automation code
- Strong Terraform proficiency: module design, state management, remote backends, workspaces, and dependency graphs
- Proven experience generating Terraform HCL programmatically using Python and Jinja2 — building template-driven pipelines that produce valid, linted, plan-ready infrastructure code
- Familiarity with Terraform tooling: tflint, tfsec, terraform-docs, Terragrunt, or Atlantis
- Hands-on Puppet experience: writing manifests and modules, Hiera data hierarchies, node classification, and r10k / Code Manager workflows
- Experience managing mixed Linux and Windows environments with Puppet at scale
- Proficient PowerShell scripting for Windows Server administration, task automation, and hybrid cloud integrations (AWS Tools for PowerShell, Azure PowerShell)
- Experience automating Active Directory, Group Policy, or Windows networking tasks via PowerShell
- Solid AWS experience: EC2, EKS/ECS, Lambda, S3, RDS, VPC, IAM, and CloudWatch — understanding of services as automation targets
- Familiarity with CI/CD platforms and integrating infrastructure code pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI)
Benefits
- Enjoy NICE-FLEX! At NICE, we work according to the NICE-FLEX hybrid model, which enables maximum flexibility: 2 days working from the office and 3 days of remote work, each week.
- Join an ever-growing, market disrupting, global company where the teams – comprised of the best of the best – work in a fast-paced, collaborative, and creative environment!
- There are endless internal career opportunities across multiple roles, disciplines, domains, and locations.

• Take the on-call escalation when a site hits trouble and triage it virtually, using real knowledge of the team and the systems to decide what to escalate, when, and how to keep the field crew focused without burying them. • Get on a plane when it matters: travel site to site (50%+) to work live incidents and post-incident reviews on the floor, and bring the practices that worked elsewhere with you. • Own root cause analysis on significant events through to closure and track corrective actions to done, killing the underlying class of failure rather than the one instance in front of you. • Read the patterns across the fleet’s incidents and RCAs, push the few highest-value learnings through to closure, and stay honest about what’s achievable and what to drop instead of boiling the ocean. • Carry learnings and practices from one campus to the next so a fix at one site becomes the standard everywhere before the failure repeats. • Write the operational Assessment standard and audit each campus against it, feeding what you find straight back into the corrective-action loop.
• Participate in technical envisioning, technical design, and delivery of assigned projects. • Work with 3Cloud Architects to support project efforts from a technical perspective. • Execute the implementation of designed solutions into client deliverables. • Assist with design and deployment of client workloads into Azure. • Providing technical expertise and support across the following four areas of specialization: • Datacenter Transformation • Azure Infrastructure • DevOps and CI/CI pipelines • Cloud automation
