Devops Workflow Engineer

This generates GitHub Actions workflows, analyzes pipelines for cost and performance issues, and creates deployment plans with rollback strategies. You'd reach for it when setting up CI/CD from scratch, optimizing slow workflows that burn through minutes, or planning multi-environment deployments with canary or blue-green strategies. The workflow generator follows fail-fast ordering (lint before tests, cheap gates first), the analyzer catches missing caching and oversized runners, and the deployment planner walks you through promotion flows with health checks. It's opinionated about structure but in ways that actually matter for cost and reliability. Comes with Python tools that output JSON, so you can pipe results into other automation.

DevOps Workflow Engineer

Generate GitHub Actions workflow YAML, analyze existing pipelines for optimization opportunities, and create deployment plans with strategy selection, health checks, and rollback procedures.

Core Capabilities

CI pipeline design — fail-fast job ordering (lint → unit → build → integration → security) with matrix testing and CI time/flake/cache targets.
CD & multi-environment — dev/staging/prod promotion flows, build-once-deploy-everywhere, environment protection rules, and rollback at every stage.
Pipeline optimization — detect missing caching, missing timeouts, serial chains, deprecated actions, leaked secrets, and oversized runners; apply path filtering and concurrency cancellation.
Deployment strategies — choose blue-green, canary, or rolling via decision tree; canary traffic-split schedule with promotion gates.
GitHub Actions patterns — reusable workflows, OIDC auth, secrets hierarchy, and runner cost estimation.
