Job Description:

A vacancy for a IT Operation Specialist DevOps (F/M) has arisen within Airbus Helicopters Information Management directorate in Marignane.

The successful applicant will join the Product-Service-Line OnePLM in the End-to-End Develop domain.

Your challenges:

  • Custom DevOps Pipeline Complexity: Master, operate, and secure a highly sophisticated and custom-built DevOps pipeline tailored specifically to the unique requirements of the DDMS program, ensuring flawless operational alignment during integration. 

  • Fast-Paced Autonomy & Transition: Adapt quickly and achieve rapid operational autonomy within a dense, high-pressure post-CFT transition phase, ensuring a smooth knowledge transfer to secure internal expertise. 

  • Complex Stakeholder Management: Effectively navigate a dense and vast ecosystem (Corporate Infrastructure, Product-Service-Line, Business units like Design/Manufacturing, Dassault Systèmes, external vendors, and counterparts in Airbus Commercial and Airbus Defence & Space).

  • Pipeline Evolution & Technological Trajectory: Evaluate and potentially drive the evolution of the pipeline, whether by optimizing the current custom-built solution or guiding a transition toward corporate infrastructure standards (such as Ansible Tower), depending on strategic alignment. 

  • Future Pipeline Anticipation: Anticipate and prepare for the potential creation of a localized, autonomous Airbus Helicopters development chain for specific local needs.

Your tasks

  • DevOps Pipeline Ownership (Primary Focus): Deploy, operate, and maintain the complex deployment pipeline specifically tailored for the 3DExperience solution (OnePlatform).

  • Package Integration & Automated Deployment: Manage, integrate, and automate the reception and continuous deployment of software packages delivered by the Large Solution level.

  • Infrastructure & Advanced Tooling Operations: Administrate and troubleshoot the core technical stack processes, covering configuration management, orchestration, secrets management, and custom local access portals.

  • End-to-End Support Operations: Provide high-level technical support, seamlessly managing project-driven issues as well as production run incidents according to corporate workflows.

  • Application Performance Monitoring: Implement, maintain, and analyze system health, infrastructure alerts, and application performance metrics.

  • Architecture Evolution & Alignment: Study and drive the lifecycle and trajectory of the pipeline, ensuring continuous alignment with Airbus infrastructure standards.

  • Agile Collaboration: Actively participate in SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) ceremonies as part of a dedicated technical ART (Agile Release Train), while collaborating closely within the broader Large Solution framework ecosystem.

  • Potential Local Dev Chain (Optional/Future phase): Design and implement a standalone, autonomous development chain tailored to specific local requirements if requested by the business.

Your skills

  • Experience: Senior profile (5 to 10 years) in ITOps, Deployment/Release Engineering, or System Engineering within complex, large-scale IT environments.

  • Technical & DevOps Stack: Strong experience with Ansible / Ansible Tower (required for migration), SaltStack, JFrog Artifactory, HashiCorp tools (Vault, Consul), Apache Airflow, Dynatrace, and Jira/ServiceNow.

  • PLM Expertise & Data Protection:

    • Good understanding of the PLM domain (ideally Dassault Systèmes 3DExperience / OnePlatform).

    • Awareness of industrial data protection constraints, regulations, and classifications (Military, Export Control).

  • Languages & Soft Skills:

    • Advanced level of English is mandatory to navigate this multinational ecosystem. Knowledge of French, German or Spanish is a strong plus.

    • Exceptional autonomy, strong team spirit, and an unyielding "automate everything" mindset.

What We Have to Offer:

  • Onboarding & Growth: Initial training provided by a motivated expert team, with a dedicated upskilling plan.

  • Strategic Impact: Technical ownership of a critical asset within Airbus Helicopters' largest Digital Transformation program.

  • Multicultural Culture: Opportunity to work with vibrant, diverse, and international teams (French, German, Spanish).

  • Airbus Benefits: Competitive corporate benefits and a flexible working environment.

This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
