ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Description:

Project Overview:

The Government of Alberta (“GoA”) has embarked on transforming the work of government to deliver simpler, more efficient, and better services for the citizens of Alberta, thereby ensuring that the needs of Albertans are effectively met in the digital age. The Province has a strategic role within government to drive efficiencies, innovation, and modernization. As part of this role, the Province is expanding the GoA’s digital delivery of services with the view of simplifying and providing better user experiences with interactions with the GoA. The Digital Design and Delivery Division (“3D”), formerly the Digital Innovation Office (“DIO”), is the Province’s new centre for digital delivery. It was established to maximize capability and confidence in modern digital practice by ensuring service quality and value through standards and controls. This includes utilizing human-centred design approaches together with agile methodology and modern data practices.

3D is currently working with the Ministries of Justice, Advanced Education, Indigenous Relations, Seniors, Community and Social Services, Children’s Services, and Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction. 3D may establish working relationships with other Ministries throughout this engagement.

The Province requires One (1) DevOps Specialist to work with 3D on service innovation, program review and digital transformation projects across the GoA. The DevOps Specialist will work as part of cross-functional program review or product delivery teams. These teams, led by GoA product owners and 3D work collaboratively and collectively participate in a full range of activities including field research, backlog definition and refinement, and sprint planning and execution. Digital transformation projects review the current state of services, identify future opportunities, and then deliver new services that are efficient, effective, and affordable.

A DevOps Specialist identifies and removes roadblocks and distractions that affect sprint commitments and prevent delivery of product features. The DevOps Specialist will be responsible for the management of the agile sprint process for cross-functional program review or product delivery teams. The DevOps Specialist will provide leadership and mentoring in agile principles, policies, and procedures, to enable the teams to self-organize and deliver consistently on sprint deliverables. The DevOps Specialist will be expected to manage communication, maximize transparency, disseminate information related to service delivery, and resolve any conflict when it arises.

Scope of Services:

It is anticipated that the DevOps Specialist will be required for one (1) year; however, the Province may extend the contract for up to twenty-four (24) months on the same terms and conditions.

The DevOps Specialist will be required on a full-time basis, working across two (2) to three (3) projects. Time, location, and frequency of work will vary depending on the needs of the particular project. At the end of each term, it is expected that the DevOps Specialist may work a maximum of 2630 hours, unless otherwise agreed upon with the Province. However, a DevOps Specialist may be required to work fewer or more hours depending on the nature and needs of their work, as directed by the Province.

Services and project deliverables should evolve as the work progresses, in response to emerging user and business needs, as well as design and technical opportunities. However, the following must be delivered (iteratively) over the course of the project:

  • Create scripts, tools, and procedures for operations by:
    • Designing and implementing automation for limited downtime deployment and maintenance.
  • Lead operations of digital services in production by:
    • Managing configuration and credentials for the production environment.
    • Planning and managing maintenance activities.
    • Managing database upgrades and migrations, backups, recoveries, etc.
  • Provide operations support for implementation and enhancement of digital services by:
    • Creating templates and patterns for application deployments and CI/CD pipelines.
    • Creating scripts and tools to automate the establishment of environments for development and testing.
    • Creating tools, scripts and processes that will enable application teams to have better observability of the application through monitoring and telemetry tools.
  • Support delivery teams in adopting best practices by:
    • Providing operations support for early and frequent integration testing, security scans, system testing, and performance and load testing.
    • Providing operations support for early and frequent delivery to end-users in limited availability launches (Alphas and Betas).
