CBTS is seeking an AI Engineer to lead the conversion of existing TeamCity CI pipelines to GitHub Actions, while working alongside a three-person DevOps team supporting the broader build/release environment. This role is focused specifically on the migration effort rather than general day-to-day pipeline operations.

Design and execute a migration plan converting TeamCity pipelines to GitHub Actions
Apply AI-assisted tooling/approaches to accelerate pipeline analysis, conversion, and validation where applicable
Validate converted pipelines for functional parity with existing TeamCity builds
Partner with the DevOps team to hand off converted pipelines into ongoing GitHub Actions/Octopus Deploy operations
Document the migration approach, mapping decisions, and any manual conversion steps for future reference
Identify and flag edge cases or legacy TeamCity configurations that require custom handling

Requirements:

Proven experience migrating CI/CD platforms, ideally including TeamCity-to-GitHub Actions conversions specifically
Strong working knowledge of

GitHub Actions

pipeline authoring and architecture
Familiarity with

TeamCity

build configuration concepts (build steps, triggers, dependencies, artifacts)
Experience applying AI-assisted development or automation tooling to technical migration/conversion work
Ability to work independently on a scoped technical initiative with clear deliverables

Preferred:

Experience with Octopus Deploy or other release management tooling (for smoother handoff to the DevOps team)
Background in build/release engineering broadly, beyond the AI/tooling specialization
Experience documenting technical migrations for handoff to an operations team
