Senior Software Engineer, Developer Platform

What you'll do

Developer productivity & platform tooling

• Identify workflow bottlenecks (build/test/release/local dev) and build tools that measurably reduce toil.
• Create and maintain “golden paths” like service templates, CLIs, libraries, and automation that teams rely on.

CI/CD & release engineering

• Design reusable CI pipelines and deployment workflows that are fast, safe, and easy to adopt across teams.
• Improve reliability of builds and tests (flake reduction, hermeticity, caching) and drive down cycle time.
• Support progressive delivery patterns (canary / blue-green) and safe rollback mechanisms.

Observability & operational excellence

• Establish shared observability primitives (metrics/logs/traces), standards, and libraries so services are production-ready by default.
• Partner with product engineers to improve operability: SLOs, alerting hygiene, dashboards, incident learnings.

Infrastructure foundations

• Build and improve core platform capabilities that make it easy to run and scale services.

Ownership & reliability

• Own the systems you build end-to-end and help keep them healthy in production, improving reliability over time.

Your background looks something like this

• 4+ years building production software, with meaningful experience in platform / devtools / infrastructure (or adjacent SRE/release engineering).
• Strong coding ability in at least one systems/productivity language (e.g., Python, TypeScript/JS), and comfort building developer-facing tooling (CLIs, libraries, automation).
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD systems and designing pipelines that are scalable and reusable across many repos/services.
• Practical experience with observability in production systems (instrumentation, alerting, dashboards, incident response).
• Comfort with containers and modern cloud infrastructure (e.g., Docker/Kubernetes and related tooling).
• A track record of improving developer experience through measurable outcomes (faster builds, fewer flakes, safer deploys, fewer incidents).
• Strong cross-team collaboration and communication—especially writing clear docs and driving adoption.

Even better if you have

• Experience with monorepos and build systems and/or large-scale CI performance work.
• Experience building internal platforms: service templates, paved-road deployment, self-serve environments, developer portals.
• Infrastructure-as-code experience (e.g., Terraform) and a security-minded approach to supply chain (provenance, secrets, least privilege).
• Experience applying AI-assisted tooling to make engineers dramatically more effective.
