Job Summary
NetApp IT supports a large and workload-diverse engineering community. The shared services developer platform is an end-to-end toolchain enabling a DevOps operating model, CI and CI/CD, test automation, release and deploy automation, centralization of controls, etc. It’s designed to be pipeline / language / framework agnostic in order to be extensible across workloads and engineering teams.

We think the best managers are also great engineers that understand the art of the possible, industry patterns and standards, and have a first-hand understanding of what works well and what doesn’t.
