DevOps | Configuration Manager

Overall responsibility for managing the FMS continuous integration/ continuous delivery (CI/CD) process, including overall system configuration, code and release management, along with driving improvements to the process. Configuration Management Establish and maintain accurate configuration baselines for all program systems: My Plan Administration Account (MyPAA) Premium and Practitioner System (PPS) Consolidated Financial System (CFS), and  Trust Accounting System (TAS) Track all system changes, including source code, versioning, and documentation updates. Use Azure Repos to manage code, configuration, and version control. Coordinate updates to system configuration documentation during each release and annually with security teams. Support system security audits by providing current configuration baselines and supporting documentation. DevOps Pipeline Management Manage the CI/CD pipeline using Azure DevOps Server to deploy code across environments (Development, Test, Production). Ensure all development activities follow approved processes for code promotion, quality control, and deployment readiness. Maximize use of Azure Pipelines for efficient and automated deployment processes. Support automated deployments across all environments, including coordination with ITIOD and third-party vendors. Environment Management Coordinate with ITIOD and vendors (e.g., Oracle, BNY Mellon, Eagle) for infrastructure access, patching, and upgrades. Ensure timely preparation and configuration of development, test, UAT, and production environments. Validate that systems are aligned with infrastructure and integration changes (e.g., OS, middleware, database upgrades). Release and Change Control Support the Change Control Board by documenting configuration changes and level of effort. Maintain audit-ready records of changes introduced during releases and hotfixes. Ensure all configuration and code changes comply with Information Technology Solutions Life Cycle Management (ITSLCM) policies. Automation and Quality Assurance Integrate automated testing into the CI/CD pipeline for regression testing, smoke testing, and performance testing. Monitor code quality through peer reviews and automated code analysis tools. Address and resolve build and deployment issues in coordination with development and infrastructure teams. Documentation and Reporting Maintain a current and complete repository of configuration-related documentation. Provide monthly updates to system dashboards and sustainability roadmaps, including technology version status and planned upgrades. Document deployment plans with detailed pre-, during-, and post-deployment tasks for each release. Security and Compliance Ensure compliance with PBGC’s security standards, including support for POA&M corrective actions. Maintain secure handling of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), ensuring no PII is used in development or stored in configuration tools. Collaborate with the ISSM/ISSPO on updates to security controls related to configuration and code changes. Support for Agile and Backlog Management Maintain and update configuration items aligned with product backlog items in Azure Boards. Participate in sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives to ensure configuration activities align with Agile workflows. Document configuration updates as part of release deliverables.
