Start Date: ASAP

Duration: Long-term mission

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly skilled Git Repository Administrator with strong Perl scripting expertise to support a mission-critical development environment within a large and complex organization. This is not a development role — we’re looking for someone who thrives in infrastructure tooling, version control management, and scripting for automation.

You’ll be responsible for administering Git repositories, streamlining workflows, and supporting CI/CD integration in coordination with development and tooling teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Administer and maintain Git repositories (access control, branching strategy, integrations)
• Support developers and teams in version control best practices
• Write and maintain Perl scripts to automate Git-related tasks and tooling
• Monitor repository health and compliance through audits and policy enforcement
• Troubleshoot Git issues and enhance repository performance
• Collaborate with DevOps and infrastructure teams to ensure secure, reliable environments

Required Skills and Experience

• Proven Git administration experience (not just usage), ideally in large or regulated environments
• Strong Perl scripting experience (minimum 3 years required)
• Solid understanding of GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket
• CI/CD integration experience (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI)
• Comfortable in Linux (preferably RHEL) command-line environments
• Good understanding of SCM (Software Configuration Management) practices
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills
• Proactive, structured, and reliable team contributor

Nice to Have

• Experience working in secure or mission-critical environments
• Familiarity with infrastructure automation tools (e.g., Ansible, Terraform)
