What you'll do

  • Drive infrastructure standardization and operational excellence by designing and developing scalable automation frameworks in Python that enable consistent and repeatable deployments across cloud and on-premises environments.
  • Accelerate infrastructure provisioning by building and enhancing Terraform code-generation platforms using Python and Jinja2, enabling teams to produce validated, environment-specific infrastructure code from reusable templates.
  • Improve system reliability and compliance by developing and maintaining Puppet modules, manifests, and Hiera configurations that manage Linux and Windows environments at scale.
  • Increase operational efficiency across Windows platforms by creating robust PowerShell automation solutions for server management, Active Directory administration, and hybrid cloud integrations.
  • Simplify complex infrastructure workflows by developing internal automation tools, command-line utilities, and APIs that empower engineering teams to self-service common operational tasks.
  • Enhance the speed and safety of infrastructure delivery by integrating automation frameworks with CI/CD pipelines, enabling automated validation, testing, and deployment of infrastructure changes.
  • Improve software quality and reduce deployment risk by implementing comprehensive testing strategies for infrastructure code, including unit testing, linting, and integration testing.
  • Partner closely with cloud, platform, and application teams to identify manual processes, eliminate operational toil, and drive automation-first solutions across the organization.
  • Enable long-term scalability and maintainability by creating clear documentation, standards, and runbooks for automation frameworks and infrastructure templates.
  • Contribute to a strong engineering culture by participating in code reviews, sharing best practices, and continuously improving the quality, security, and maintainability of automation solutions.

What they require

  • We are looking for a Senior software engineer who is passionate about solving infrastructure challenges through software engineering and automation.
  • The ideal candidate is a software-minded engineer who writes clean, maintainable, and testable code every day—not just ad hoc scripts.
  • You should be comfortable designing reusable automation components, applying software development best practices, and driving operational excellence through automation across complex cloud and hybrid environments.
  • 5+ years of Python development experience — not scripting, but structured, testable application code
  • Strong understanding of Python packaging, virtual environments, dependency management (pip, Poetry), and code quality tooling (pylint, black, mypy)
  • Experience building CLI tools and automation frameworks using Python (Click, Typer, or similar)
  • Hands-on experience with Jinja2 templating — building reusable, parameterised templates for configuration and infrastructure code generation
  • Experience with pytest for unit and integration testing of automation code
  • Strong Terraform proficiency: module design, state management, remote backends, workspaces, and dependency graphs
  • Proven experience generating Terraform HCL programmatically using Python and Jinja2 — building template-driven pipelines that produce valid, linted, plan-ready infrastructure code
  • Familiarity with Terraform tooling: tflint, tfsec, terraform-docs, Terragrunt, or Atlantis
  • Understanding of Terraform provider internals and resource lifecycle management
  • Hands-on Puppet experience: writing manifests and modules, Hiera data hierarchies, node classification, and r10k / Code Manager workflows
  • Experience managing mixed Linux and Windows environments with Puppet at scale
  • Familiarity with puppet-lint, rspec-puppet, and automated Puppet module testing pipelines
  • Understanding of Puppet Enterprise or open-source Puppet Server administration
  • Proficient PowerShell scripting for Windows Server administration, task automation, and hybrid cloud integrations (AWS Tools for PowerShell, Azure PowerShell)
  • Experience writing reusable PowerShell modules, functions, and error-handling patterns
  • Familiarity with Pester for PowerShell unit testing
  • Experience automating Active Directory, Group Policy, or Windows networking tasks via PowerShell
  • Solid AWS experience: EC2, EKS/ECS, Lambda, S3, RDS, VPC, IAM, and CloudWatch — understanding of services as automation targets
  • Familiarity with CI/CD platforms and integrating infrastructure code pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI)
  • Comfortable working with Linux and Windows Server in production environments

Benefits

  • Join an ever-growing, market disrupting, global company where the teams work in a fast-paced, collaborative, and creative environment.
  • Every day at NICE is a chance to learn and grow, and there are endless internal career opportunities across multiple roles, disciplines, domains, and locations.
  • Enjoy NICE-FLEX!
  • At NICE, we work according to the NICE-FLEX hybrid model, which enables maximum flexibility: 2 days working from the office and 3 days of remote work, each week.
