Mandatory Skills - Ansible Tower

Below is the JD:-

• The aim of this post is to demonstrate how to use Ansible for environment provisioning and application deployment in a Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) process using a Jenkins Pipeline.
• Ansible is a powerful tool for IT automation and can be used in a CI/CD process to provision the target environment and to then deploy the application on it.
• Jenkins is a well-known tool for implementing CI/CD. Shell Scripts are commonly used for provisioning environments or to deploy apps during the pipeline flow.
• Although this could work, it is cumbersome to maintain and reuse scripts in the long run.
• The purpose of using Ansible in the pipeline flow is to reuse roles and Playbooks for provisioning, leaving Jenkins only as a process orchestrator instead of a Shell script executor.
• Create a secure production infrastructure with thousands of resources across three cloud platforms.
• Design, develop and scale infrastructure-as-code.
• Establish SLAs for service uptime, and build the necessary telemetry and alerting platforms to enforce them
• Architect and build continuous deployment pipelines.
• Create tools to empower developers to manage production infrastructure.

Big Plus:

• Infrastructure automation experience (Chef, Puppet, Ansible)
• Experience with templating frameworks like Terraform, Cloud formation or Resource Template Manager
• Experience managing a large RDBMS like MSSQL or MySQL
• Knowledge of Linux Kernel fundamentals including job management, memory management, file systems, networking & debugging
