• Investigate and recommend evolution to the structure of the code base and build processes to shorten the developer feedback loop.
• Collaborate with the Site Reliability Engineering team to ensure scalability and availability of build systems, and the integration of its processes with the agile tool set used to track user stories and product defects.
• Respond to build system issues and coordinate the triage and remediation efforts across the product teams.
• Influence and drive operational excellence and standard processes within the organization.

You are an ideal candidate if you have:

• 5+ years of relevant experience in the areas of development, build, and release engineering.
• Experience with development of modular build systems and tools for a scalable continuous infrastructure that provides a streamlined developer experience.
• Solid understanding of the integration between automated software testing and the build process.
• Experience with Ruby on Rails and RSpec pipelines.
• Experience with TypeScript and React toolchains and pipelines.
• Experience with Linux and open source software.
• Strong scripting knowledge using Shell, Groovy, Ruby, and/or Python.
• Experience with distributed version control systems such as Git, Gitlab, Gerrit, and/or GitHub.
• Experience with continuous integration tools such as Jenkins, Gitlab, and/or GitHub.
• Experience with the use of containers in a build environment.
