• Architect fast, reproducible, and reliable CI/CD pipelines across multiple platforms.
• Partner with C++ developers to streamline build workflows and eliminate bottlenecks.
• Drive innovation in Bazel infrastructure, from remote execution to dependency graph optimization.
• Champion best practices for build reliability, reproducibility, and developer productivity.

You Have

• 5+ years in build systems engineering with a focus on Bazel.
• Expert in Starlark, Python, and advanced Bazel rule development.
• Strong C/C++ build knowledge, from toolchains to linking strategies.
• Experience scaling CI/CD pipelines for multi-platform development.
• GitLab/GitHub workflows mastery and comfort in Linux environments.
• Analytical problem-solver with strong communication skills.

Great To Have
