Job Description

-Dig deep, partnering with teams and the DevSecOps Senior BA to understand current maturity, build plans for improvement, and provide hands-on support.
-Act broadly, regularly reaching out across the enterprise to encourage, empower, and inspire teams to level up.
Change is hard, so individuals in this role should expect to encounter resistance to change on a regular basis. A mindset of positivity, open-mindedness, and persistence is required.
This position is responsible for:
-Understanding the technical details required to implement modern delivery practices, including continuous integration, continuous delivery, automated release/change management, automated provisioning, and automated testing (unit, component, integration, acceptance).
-Working with IT teams (development, operations, support, etc.) to incrementally increase maturity.
-Sharing knowledge and partnering with our maturity models team to ensure our long-term trajectory is in line with modern best practices.
-Working in partnership with the DevSecOps Senior BA to implement improvements.
-Developing a method for tracking technical improvement efforts for every team and the tangible outcomes expressed in metrics and aligned to the DSO OKRs.
-Developing standards for software engineering and rolling them out across the enterprise.
-Broadcasting stories of success and growth.
-Proactively and consistently providing updates on progress.
-Tactfully holding teams accountable for continuous improvement.
-Working to understand barriers to progress and knocking them down.
-Designing training opportunities (e.g. lunch and learns, skill builders)
-Designing and develop internal tools to help accelerate improvements.
-Hosting evangelism sessions, including things like DevSecOps roadshows.
Day-to-day, much of position's time will be spent working to understand the unique needs of each IT team, and then encouraging, facilitating, and supporting those teams' improvement efforts from a technical perspective. These individuals will need to make great relationships with developers, testers, product owners, scrum masters, and more.
