We are seeking a DevOps & Odoo Tech Lead (India) to spearhead the rollout and support of the Services QT tool within Odoo, ensuring robust infrastructure, configuration, and operational excellence. You’ll design and implement APIs for seamless integration with Nokia’s service automation platforms and external systems, architect and manage the DevOps environment—including CI/CD pipelines, containerization, infrastructure as code, high-availability Odoo deployments, monitoring, and automation—and resolve complex performance and integration issues. As team leader, you will coach and mentor DevOps staff, manage agile release cycles, and drive best practices for operational stability, scalability, and security.

You Have:

Proficient in designing and defining REST/SOAP APIs—including secure authentication, error handling, and monitoring—for seamless integration with Nokia automation platforms and external systems.  Strong DevOps & CI/CD expertise: hands‑on with Git, Jenkins/GitLab CI, Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Ansible, Terraform), and advanced deployment strategies (Blue‑Green/Canary). Deep understanding of Odoo architecture: Python backend, XML/JavaScript frontend, PostgreSQL ORM, module customization, performance tuning, and version upgrades.  Linux system administration skills: Ubuntu/Debian/CentOS environments, Docker/Kubernetes containerization, VMs, high-availability clustering, load balancing, and monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana/ELK). PostgreSQL database management: performance tuning, indexing, replication, backup/disaster recovery strategies crucial for scalable Odoo deployments.  Excellent problem-solving and leadership: troubleshooting complex automation issues and mentoring DevOps teams—including coaching, knowledge-sharing, and performance guidance. 

It would be nice if you also have:

Familiarity with network/telecom automation frameworks—especially event-driven architectures, Nokia’s EDA, SDN/NFV, and intent-based networking. Experience in cloud-native deployments and observability: microservices, GitOps workflows, CI/CD for network automation, and monitoring telemetry with Prometheus/Grafana. Define, design, and oversee the development of APIs required from Nokia products (and other new-tech vendors) to enable seamless integration with Nokia’s service automation platforms. Act as the primary technical liaison for both internal and external service software teams, guiding effective integration with Nokia’s service automation components. Diagnose and resolve complex performance and reliability issues within service operations automation using deep expertise in DevOps, infrastructure, and Odoo tuning. Use in-depth business domain knowledge to align architectural and DevOps strategies with service automation goals and customer objectives. Provide structured mentoring, best practices, and real-time guidance to Managed Services DevOps staff, taskforces, and workteams. Coordinate task allocation, monitor progress, and coach team members, contributing feedback for formal performance evaluations. Lead release management within Scrum/Agile cycles, including planning, execution, regression testing, and post-release reviews to meet customer requirements. Administer and optimize Odoo deployments on Linux or cloud platforms—handling installation, configuration, performance tuning, HA, backups—while implementing CI/CD pipelines, containerization, infrastructure automation, monitoring, and security best practices.
