Product / Delivery Managers and business stakeholders remain responsible for intake, priority alignment, UAT coordination, and business acceptance.\nThis role does not own application architecture for product groups. Product Group Team Leads / Architects remain responsible for application-level technical design, with DevOps partnership on build, release, environment, monitoring, and operational concerns.\nThis role does not replace DBA ownership for database reliability, HA / DR, backup / recovery, schema review, or database performance. It must partner closely with DBA / Data Platform teams on database-related release and operational risks.\nThis role does not replace Infrastructure & Security ownership for servers, storage, network, endpoint security, identity, physical / virtual infrastructure, or security operations. It must partner closely with Infrastructure & Security where platform reliability depends on infrastructure.\nThis role should not turn DevOps into a gatekeeping function. The goal is to make software delivery safer, more visible, and more repeatable, not to create unnecessary bureaucracy.\nBenefits:\nCompetitive salary\nOngoing training and professional development opportunities\nCollaborative global work environment\nPTO\nEQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER. \nIt is our policy to abide by all federal, state and local laws prohibiting employment discrimination based on a person’s race, color, religious creed, sex, national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, pregnancy, childbirth, physical disability, mental and/or intellectual disability, age, military status, veteran status (including protected veterans), marital status, registered domestic partner or civil union status, familial status, gender (including sex stereotyping and gender identity or expression), medical condition (including, but not limited to, cancer related or HIV/AIDS related), genetic information, sexual orientation, or any other protected status.","description_format":"text","description_chars":11266,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Professional development"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Transportation & Logistics","Supply Chain","Electronic Components Distribution"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-26T12:39:37Z"}],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.293,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":122,"expected_fill_days":46,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-09-29T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/sourceability-senior-devops-platform-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/sourceability-senior-devops-platform-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-30T01:35:04Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1182,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":3818,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-01T00:00:00Z"}}}
