What you will do
Johnson Controls' software touches revenue and production directly. The sales configurator is how orders get quoted, the engineering BOM release is how they get built, and the shop floor systems are how units move down the line. If a deployment goes wrong at the wrong hour, a plant stops. On top of that, we are standing up AI capabilities — document extraction from customer specifications, BOM anomaly detection, labor estimation, assistive tools for sales and application engineers — which brings a new set of infrastructure, cost, and governance problems.
As a Senior DevOps Engineer, you will maintain the platform underneath all of it. Pipelines, environments, infrastructure as code, observability, security posture, and the deployment paths that reach both cloud services and servers sitting inside segmented plant networks. You will also help build the AI platform: the training and inference infrastructure, the evaluation gates in CI, the endpoint and quota management, and the cost controls that keep AI spend visible before it becomes a finance conversation.
Join our team in York, Pennsylvania, where you'll have the opportunity to make an immediate impact. Candidates should be located within commuting distance of the facility or be open to relocating, with relocation assistance available. For the right candidate, we are also open to considering a fully remote work arrangement.
How you will do it
CI/CD and release engineering
Azure DevOps as a platform — organization and project structure, YAML pipelines, repositories and branch policies, artifact feeds, service connections, environments, and self-hosted agent pools including agents inside plant and DMZ networks.
Build deployment paths for the systems we actually run. Microservices are the easy case; you will also need controlled, repeatable release processes for integration artifacts, API layers, and configuration for COTS platforms ([CPQ], [PLM], [ERP], [MES]) that do not deploy like modern applications.
Design approval gates, change records, and audit evidence appropriate to systems that control what gets manufactured and shipped, without turning every deployment into a two-week ceremony.
Plan and execute deployments around production reality — maintenance windows, shift schedules, quarter-end order volume, and the fact that the factory does not stop for a release.
Azure platform
Manage infrastructure as code across all environments. Manual portal changes are a defect, not a workflow.
Manage the estate: Functions, Azure SQL and storage, Service Bus and Event Hubs, API Management, and the data platform
Networking and identity — VNets, private endpoints, hub-and-spoke topology, [ExpressRoute / site-to-site VPN] connectivity to plants, Entra ID, managed identities, Key Vault, and RBAC.
Manage hybrid and edge footprint, including [Azure Arc] for on-premise servers and [IoT Edge / IoT Hub] where shop floor systems require local resilience and cannot depend on WAN availability.
Own environment strategy and lifecycle: dev, test, UAT, and production; environment refresh and provisioning; and test data management including masking of customer, pricing, and design data.
Build the AI platform
Stand up and operate [Azure Machine Learning / Azure AI Foundry] — workspaces, compute and GPU capacity, model registry, and managed inference endpoints.
Manage Azure OpenAI and model provider access: provisioning, quota and throughput planning, private networking, content filtering configuration, and key and identity management.
Extend CI/CD to AI workloads — versioning for models, prompts, and datasets; automated evaluation as a pipeline gate so a regression blocks a release the same way a failing unit test does; and reliable rollback.
Build observability for AI in production: latency, error and abstention rates, token consumption, drift signals, and per-feature cost attribution.
Deploy inference where it needs to run, including on-premise or edge at plants where latency, connectivity, or data policy rules out a cloud round trip.
Own AI cost management. Make spend attributable and forecastable, and raise the trade-offs early rather than at invoice time.
Reliability and security
Build monitoring and alerting that reflects business impact rather than resource metrics — a stalled BOM release matters more than CPU utilization. Own SLOs, dashboards, and incident response for production systems.
Drive incident management and blameless postmortems, and convert findings into platform changes.
Own security posture in the pipeline and the estate: secrets management, vulnerability and dependency scanning, container image hygiene, SBOM generation, and patch management coordination — including OT environments where patching windows are constrained.
Partner with IT, OT, and information security on segmentation, access control, and compliance requirements for plant-connected systems.
Improve how the team ships
Reduce friction and toil deliberately. Self-service environments, golden pipeline templates, and good documentation are deliverables, not side effects.
Mentor engineers on deployment, observability, and operational ownership of what they build.
What you will do
Required
5+ years in DevOps, platform, SRE, or cloud infrastructure engineering.
Hands-on Azure experience across compute, networking, identity, data services, and monitoring.
Azure DevOps expertise — YAML pipelines, self-hosted agents, environments and approvals, artifact management, and repository governance. Equivalent depth in GitHub Actions or GitLab CI with demonstrated ability to pick up Azure DevOps is acceptable.
Containerization and orchestration in production (Docker and Kubernetes).
Scripting and automation in Python and PowerShell or Bash.
Experience deploying into hybrid environments, not cloud-only. Firewalled targets, private connectivity, and on-premise servers should be familiar territory.
Demonstrated ownership of production systems — on-call, incident response, and measurable reliability improvement.
Preferred
MLOps experience: Azure Machine Learning, model registries and inference endpoints, GPU capacity management, or LLMOps including prompt and evaluation versioning and token cost management.
Experience supporting enterprise business systems — ERP, PLM, CPQ, MES, or integration middleware — and realistic expectations about what CI/CD looks like for commercial platforms.
Manufacturing or industrial environment experience, including OT network segmentation and plant cybersecurity practices.
Data platform operations: [Data Factory / Fabric], warehouse or lakehouse infrastructure, orchestration and pipeline reliability.
FinOps practice — cloud cost visibility, allocation, and optimization.
Azure certifications (AZ-400, AZ-104/305, or AI-102) and Kubernetes certifications (CKA).
Experience being an early platform hire and establishing standards rather than inheriting them.
Production infrastructure-as-code experience with [Terraform / Bicep], including managing multiple environments and state responsibly.
HIRING SALARY RANGE: $120,000 - 155,000 (Salary to be determined by the education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the applicant, internal equity, and alignment with market data.) This role offers a competitive Bonus plan that will take into account individual, group, and corporate performance. This position includes a competitive benefits package. The posted salary range reflects the target compensation for this role. However, we recognize that exceptional candidates may bring unique skills and experiences that exceed the typical profile. If you believe your background warrants consideration beyond the stated range, we encourage you to apply. To support an efficient and fair hiring process, we may use technology assisted tools, including artificial intelligence (AI), to help identify and evaluate candidates.
