AWS DevOps Architect

Must Have Technical/Functional Skills

Harness CI/CD DevOps Engineer (Migration Factory) executes wave-based, repeatable Jenkins → Harness migrations using a factory operating model: Intake → Convert → Remediate → Validate → Cutover → Stabilize, while driving standardization through golden templates, enterprise integrations (SCM/artifacts/secrets), and controlled legacy CI/CD decommissioning.

Core Mission

· Industrialize CI/CD migration using waves, playbooks, reusable templates, and validation gates to reduce delivery risk and improve consistency

· Leverage Harness Jenkins Migrator to scan/analyze pipelines, convert Jenkins pipelines to Harness format, and consolidate into reusable templates (where applicable), reducing manual effort and operational risk.

· Deliver controlled cutovers and stabilization while enabling governance elements (approvals, evidence capture) and controlled Jenkins decommission actions.

Key Responsibilities (Migration Factory Scope)

1. Migration Intake, Inventory & Segmentation

· Perform Jenkins estate discovery: inventory pipelines/jobs, Jenkinsfiles, shared libraries, credentials usage, build agents, plugins; map dependencies and owners.

· Classify pipelines into complexity buckets (e.g., Quick Win/Simple, Standard/Medium, Complex) and build wave backlogs for migration execution.

· Run migrator assessment to produce a conversion readiness report and list of unsupported patterns (to drive remediation plan).

1. Platform Foundation for Migration

· Implement hands-on readiness required for factory execution: validate network allowlists/proxy/firewall, and ensure delegates/runners are deployed and healthy in target environments.

· Configure and validate connectors for SCM, artifact repositories/registries, cloud/K8s targets, and secret stores (Vault / secrets integration where applicable).

· Establish/maintain operational runbooks for delegate installation, access troubleshooting, and credential rotation.

1. Convert + Standardize via Golden Templates

· Use Harness Jenkins Migrator for bulk conversion and initial YAML generation where applicable.

· Refactor conversions to adopt golden templates (build/test/package/scan/deploy/notify patterns) and replace ad-hoc logic with reusable templates/modules.

· Translate Jenkins constructs into Harness equivalents:

o shared libraries → templates/steps/stage templates

o Jenkins agents → delegates + build infrastructure model

o credentials → connectors + secrets manager

1. Remediate Gaps

· Replace unsupported Jenkins plugins / Groovy patterns with Harness-native steps or agreed scripts, and convert shared-library logic into reusable templates/modules.

· Integrate required enterprise toolchain hooks (e.g., artifact management, code quality gates, smoke tests), aligned to app team inputs.

1. Validate Shadow Mode & Parity Checks

· Execute parallel runs (Jenkins + Harness) for validation; compare outputs (artifacts, test reports, scan outputs) and complete acceptance testing checkpoints.

· Produce a validation evidence package (shadow run results + parity checks) to support cutover readiness a nd audit needs.

1. Cutover & Stabilize (Hypercare within the factory cycle)

· Execute cutover by switching triggers/webhooks/notifications to Harness and keeping Jenkins as rollback for a defined period when required by the plan.

· Stabilize builds by monitoring failures, tuning caching, adjusting runner sizing, and addressing recurring pipeline issues; capture improvements back into templates/playbooks.

· Run wave retrospectives to update templates, playbooks, and known-issues guidance for the next wave.

1. Controlled Jenkins Decommission (Factory Exit)

· Support controlled Jenkins reduction activities as defined by the migration plan:

o Freeze new pipeline creation in Jenkins (new work lands in Harness)

o Progressive shutdown (disable triggers → jobs → agents; keep read-only for audit retention)

o Plugin & credential cleanup (remove unused creds, rotate secrets, lock down access)

o Archive evidence (export build history/logs as required)

o Terminate Jenkins infrastructure and reclaim resources

Factory Delivery Model Alignment (Pods & Interfaces)

· Work within a pod-based migration factory model that includes:

o Platform Pod: templates, delegate strategy/connectors, enterprise integration, org/account governance, policy enforcement, service catalog enablement

o Migration Pod: Jenkins inventory & dependency analysis, wave planning, pipeline migration/validation, cutover support, runbooks/handover, hypercare, and decommission support
