### job variables
It is possible to define build variables using a `variables` keyword on a job
level. It works basically the same way like it's global-level equivalent but
allows you to define a job specific build variables.
When `variables` keyword is used on a job level, it can override global YAML
build variables and predefined variables.
Build variables priority is defined as follows:
* predefined variables
* global YAML variables
* job YAML variables
* secure variables
* trigger variables
