Role: Senior Software Developer, Build and DevOps
Location: Lexington, KY, USA (Office-based)

The Opportunity

OpenText has a vibrant software development organization that provides a customer communication management (CCM) solution that is proven to improve the customer experience and make customer interactions more profitable. It allows business users to create the communications for connected customer journeys using the delivery formats and channels customers prefer.
We are looking for a Senior Software Developer specializing in Build Engineering and DevOps to own and modernize the build infrastructure for a large, mature C++ product.
This developer will be responsible for evolving a complex, multi-platform build environment spanning Windows, Linux, IBM AIX, and IBM z/OS (MVS). The role combines hands-on software development with build-system architecture, CI/CD automation, developer productivity and supply-chain engineering.
A major focus of the position will be simplifying legacy build infrastructure and moving toward modern, repeatable, maintainable build practices while preserving the ability to build and deliver software across both distributed and mainframe platforms. This developer will own the build system as an engineering product.

You are great at:

• Modernize the build system across Windows, Linux, AIX, and z/OS, reducing legacy complexity and moving toward modern tooling such as CMake, Make, and MSBuild.
• Own and improve CI/CD pipelines, automating compilation, testing, packaging, artifact creation, and release processes while improving build reliability and performance.
• Improve developer productivity by making builds reproducible and easier to understand, troubleshoot, and run locally or in CI environments.
• Modernize build infrastructure through containerization and automated, reproducible environments where supported, while effectively supporting specialized AIX and z/OS environments.
• Integrate software supply-chain practices including dependency management, SBOM generation, vulnerability scanning, and artifact traceability.

What it takes:
Must Have

•

• Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in computer science, software engineering, computer engineering, information systems or related fields.
• Minimum of 3 to 5 years of experience developing solutions.
• Strong proficiency in at least one common development language (C/C++, Java, Python).
• Flexibility to move across different languages, technologies, and frameworks.
• Proven history of learning and implementing new technologies under pressure.
• Strong knowledge of compilers, linkers, libraries, dependency management and native build toolchains.
• Experience with build systems such as CMake, Make, Ninja, MSBuild, or similar technologies.
• Experience developing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Gitlab CI/CD, or comparable platforms.
• Strong Windows and Linux development experience
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex build, dependence, and infrastructure problems.

Preferred Qualifications

•

• Experience with IBM AIX and/or IBM z/OS (MVS)
• Experience with modernizing large or legacy C++ build systems
• Experience with artifact and dependency management solutions such as Conan or JFrog Artifactory.
• Familiarity with SBOMs, software composition analysis, and software supply-chain security.
