About the Role
TKO is seeking a DevOps Lead to own the deployment, release management, and security operations for their Salesforce and business-systems platforms. This role focuses on establishing and optimizing frameworks for deployment, pipeline, and environment management, as well as owning security operations including observability, monitoring, incident response, and reliability. The DevOps Lead will drive the engineering discipline, automation, and operational guardrails to ensure safe, repeatable, and high-quality delivery, acting as a liaison between development, security, and IT operations to accelerate deployments and enhance security.
Responsibilities
- Own the framework and ongoing optimization of deployment, pipeline (CI/CD), environment management, and release management across the Salesforce and connected business-systems landscape.
- Own security operations — including observability, monitoring, incident response, and reliability and scaling — ensuring platforms are secure, resilient, and performant.
- Own security vendor relationships, ensuring adherence to SLAs, monitoring services, and alerting.
- Facilitate communication and streamline workflows between software developers, security, and IT operations teams, breaking down silos across the delivery pipeline.
- Own the tooling and AI capabilities that accelerate deployment, testing, and operational tasks, continuously evaluating and introducing automation that improves speed and quality.
- Establish branching, release, and environment-promotion strategies that enable predictable, low-risk deployments.
- Embed security and compliance controls directly into the pipeline (shift-left), partnering with the platform and data architecture functions to enforce standards.
- Define, track, and improve DevSecOps and quality KPIs — such as deployment frequency, lead time, change-failure rate, mean time to recovery, test coverage, and defect escape rate.
- Lead security incident response and post-incident reviews, ensuring rigorous root-cause analysis and durable remediation.
- Govern environments and sandboxes, including data seeding, refresh strategy, and access controls.
- Partner with the Director, Salesforce Platform Architecture & Delivery and the Data & Marketing Technology Architect to align release governance, architecture standards, and quality expectations.
Requirements
- 6+ years in DevOps/DevSecOps, release engineering, and site reliability, including experience leading practices, standards, and teams.
- Hands-on expertise building and optimizing CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and environment/release management.
- Experience owning security operations: observability, monitoring and alerting, incident response, and reliability and scaling practices.
- Proficiency with DevOps and release-management tooling (e.g., Salesforce DevOps Center, Copado, Gearset, Git-based workflows, or similar).
- Experience with observability and monitoring platforms (e.g., Datadog, Splunk, New Relic, or similar).
- Demonstrated ability to facilitate collaboration across software development, security, and IT operations teams.
- Experience applying AI and automation to accelerate deployment, testing, and operational tasks.
- Strong understanding of security and compliance practices, including access control, secrets management, and data governance.
- Excellent problem-solving, critical thinking, and communication skills (written and verbal, for technical and non-technical audiences).
