Salary

USD 405,000 - 485,000

Requirements

Skills

  • Significant backend or developer-infrastructure engineering experience, with hands‑on responsibility for a high‑leverage CI/CD, merge queue, or land pipeline at scale
  • Proficiency in Python and at least one statically‑typed systems language (e.g., Go or Rust)
  • Experience operating CI/CD or release systems through production incidents, including writing postmortems and driving remediations
  • Demonstrated ability to work across team boundaries — building consensus with platform, security, and product engineering stakeholders
  • Comfort using AI coding tools as a daily part of your workflow, with informed opinions on where they provide leverage

Responsibilities

  • Own the build, test, merge, and deploy pipeline end to end — what runs on each PR, what auto‑approves, what gates merge, and how a change progresses to running healthy in production
  • Drive down and defend "time from push to healthy in prod" as a core engineering metric
  • Design and tune AI‑assisted code review so confidence‑to‑land scales with PR volume
  • Build the deploy and release path — canary, progressive rollout, health checks, automated rollback — in partnership with the platform teams who own the underlying substrate
  • Improve test reliability by quarantining, root‑causing, and retiring intermittent failures
  • Shape CI and repository topology (build graph, test targeting, scope boundaries) to match how the company actually ships
  • Partner with platform, delivery infrastructure, and security teams, and represent Developer Productivity in cross‑org pipeline decisions
  • Design processes (postmortem review, incident response, on‑call) that help the team operate reliably and never fail the same way twice
