DevOps Visa Sponsorship Jobs in New Jersey

About this Role

Wells Fargo is seeking a Principal DevOps Engineer to accelerate how Consumer Technology builds, ships, and operates software at enterprise scale. You'll be a hands-on engineer who pairs deep software engineering skill with platform thinking—designing APIs, applications, playbooks, and providers that power our Internal Developer Platform and reliability toolchain. Your focus will span Platform Engineering (infrastructure as code, developer portals, service templates, GitOps) and Reliability Engineering (SLOs/error budgets, resilient architectures, observability) with room to lean into your strength area.

In this role, you will:

- Design and build platform capabilities as products: APIs, controllers, operators, and Infrastructure as Code providers that enable self-service infrastructure, secure defaults, and golden paths.
- Advance reliability engineering across SDLC: define SLOs/error budgets, design for graceful degradation and resiliency, and embed observability through standardized libraries and templates.
- Lead architecture and strategy and author RFCs/tech designs, drive decisions on platform boundaries, SLAs, tenancy, multi-region readiness, and dependency risk.
- Elevate developer experience: collaborate with our Chief Development Office to extend and integrate developer portals with catalogs, scorecards, templates, and paved-road CI/CD that make the right path the easy path.
- Implement modern delivery: GitOps workflows, artifact/image pipelines, immutable infrastructure patterns, and progressive delivery practices.
- Collaborate across the enterprise: influence standards, align with security/compliance guardrails, and partner with SRE, Cloud, and App teams to remove friction and deliver measurable reliability and time-to-value gains.

Required Qualifications:

- 7+ years of Engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work experience, training, military experience, education
- 5+ years writing production code for platforms, services, or automation.
- 5+ years of experience with capacity management, performance tuning, or performance optimization
- 3+ years experience with Infrastructure as Code at scale
- 3+ years of experience with cloud and/or hybrid cloud including hands-on Kubernetes/OpenShift: packaging, platform abstractions, cluster-level automation, admission controls, and secure multi-tenancy patterns.
- 3+ years experience with GitOps delivery CI/CD design, environment promotion strategies, and policy-as-code integration.
- 3+ years experience with Observability fundamentals: metrics, logs, tracing, and alerting with SLOs and error budgets.

Desired Qualifications:

- Experience extending developer portals and building service templates
- Experience with Crossplane and custom providers/operators is highly valued.
- Building secure, compliant platforms: guardrails, golden images, image supply chains and runtime controls.
- Distributed systems and reliability patterns experience
- Experience with service mesh and API management patterns.
- Experience contributing to inner source codebases or shared engineering libraries
- Financial-services or other regulated-enterprise experience.

Job Expectations:

- Ability to travel up to 20% for key events and teamwork as needed.
