Summary
Senior DevOps engineer on StarHub's Matrixx platform in Petaling Jaya: designs and builds Java/Spring Boot microservices, runs them on OpenShift/Kubernetes with Jenkins CI/CD pipelines, handles AWS infrastructure and data stores, and joins on-call rotations for production incident support.
The Senior Matrixx DevOps Engineer will be involved in the end-to-end delivery lifecycle including solution design, application development, QC testing, CI/CD automation and continuous optimization of cloud-native platforms. The candidate will need to manage Kubernetes operations, infrastructure provisioning and software upgrades to ensure systems remain reliable, secure and scalable. The candidate will be working in a team in routine on-call rotations to support day-to-day operations, incident resolution, customer care and defect fixes.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and Development: Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable, and resilient microservices using Java, Spring Boot and related frameworks.
- Hands-on experience with Apache Camel and its core Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIPs).
- Implement RESTful APIs and ensure services meet performance, security, and stability requirements.
- Write clean, well-tested, and efficient code following best practices and design patterns.
- Containerization and Deployment: Develop and manage services deployed on OpenShift/Kubernetes, including defining Dockerfiles and Kubernetes resource configurations (Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, etc.).
- Work with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins) for automated build, test, and deployment.
- Monitor and troubleshoot services running in the OpenShift environment.
- Architecture and Data: Contribute to the architectural design of microservices, focusing on principles like loose coupling, high cohesion, and fault tolerance.
- Implement various data persistence technologies, including relational (e.g., PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis).
- Integrate services using messaging systems (e.g., Red Hat AMQ) where required.
- Collaboration and Quality: Perform code reviews to maintain code quality and share knowledge within the team.
- Ensure compliance with security standards and industry regulations by performing security vulnerability scans (SAST, DAST, SCA) and disaster recovery exercise.
- Support on-call duty on shift rotation and handle production incident and root cause analysis with minimal supervision.
- Knowledge Management: Build technical documentation from scratch, maintaining working documents on architecture overviews, API specifications and system integrations.
- Create and maintain operational runbooks to support the team and internal stakeholders.
