Software Engineer, Dev Velocity

What You'll Do

• Improve speed and reliability of early change feedback
• Invest in build and dependency tooling, caching, incremental builds, and monorepo ergonomics
• Accelerate CI/CD pipelines - cutting build, test, and deploy times while keeping the path to production safe and reversible
• Make test suites fast and trustworthy: parallelization, smart test selection, flaky-test detection, and better local/preview environments
• Design and build tools to support concurrent agent execution
• Make test feedback fast enough to live inside an agent's loop
• Get agents the right context (codebase conventions, service ownership, recent changes, environment state)
• Simplify and establish repeatable patterns
• Reduce toil through automation, paving over repetitive workflows and manual steps
• Instrument the engineering org with meaningful signals (deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate, time to restore)
• Build and participate in an on-call rotation

What We're Looking For

• Experience building and operating developer-facing tooling, CI/CD systems, or internal platforms that other engineers depend on every day
• Experience driving cultural and process changes to make engineering teams more effective
• Strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of shipping, maintaining, and debugging production systems
• Proficiency in Go (or a strong willingness to ramp quickly)
• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes or similar container orchestration
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform)
• A bias toward measurement: instrument what you build and let data tell you whether you actually made things faster
• Empathy with engineers, fixing developer pain points in an elegant and sustainable manner

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience improving build systems, test infrastructure, or developer experience at meaningful scale (Bazel, Concourse, GitHub workflows)
• Familiarity with observability tools like Datadog, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry
• Comfort working close to the metal - Linux, containers, kubernetes
• Security-minded instincts, especially around supply chain and the path from commit to deploy
• Understanding of where to use AI as an accelerant, and where human context must come first
