What is a DevOps Engineer at NetApp?
At NetApp, the DevOps Engineer role is a critical engineering discipline positioned at the intersection of hybrid cloud infrastructure, continuous delivery, and systems reliability. NetApp has evolved from a traditional storage hardware giant into a leader in intelligent data infrastructure and cloud data services. Consequently, DevOps teams here do not merely manage scripts; they architect the automated pipelines, container platforms, and infrastructure-as-code (IaC) templates that power global enterprise data management systems, including ONTAP cloud integration, BlueXP, and high-performance storage-as-a-service APIs.
Your work as a DevOps Engineer directly impacts how rapidly and securely NetApp software developers can build, test, and deploy code to multi-cloud environments. By building highly resilient, secure, and automated deployment pipelines, you ensure that enterprise customers receive updates with zero downtime. This requires a deep understanding of scale, high availability, and security-first engineering, making it an intellectually stimulating environment for engineers who thrive on solving complex systems-level challenges.
To succeed in this role, you must possess a strong systems mindset combined with a passion for automation. You will be expected to collaborate closely with software engineering, product management, and site reliability engineering (SRE) teams to drive a culture of continuous improvement, shift-left security, and operational excellence across the entire software development lifecycle.
