• Enhance packaging capabilities beyond RPM/DEB, including binary tarballs and relocatable builds.
• Automate building of third-party dependencies (libxml2, OpenSSL, krb5, zstd, etc) across Windows and MacOS
• Add automation for building binary RPMs from SRPMs and streamline dependency workflows.
• Integrate and optimize security/compliance scans (e.g., BlackDuck) for packaged binaries.
• Ensure quality and reliability by automating package installation testing and regression checks.
• Collaborate with the team to upgrade and rebuild 3rd-party libraries when new versions are released.

Qualifications

• 4-8 years of experience in Build Engineering / DevOps.
• Strong hands-on experience of Linux (RHEL, Ubuntu/Debian, SUSE) packaging – RPM and DEB builds.
• Experience with Windows (MSI/EXE) and MacOS (DMG, pkg) packaging using installer tools like InstallBuilder or similar.
• Proficiency in GitHub Actions (or similar modern CI/CD tools).
• Strong background in C/C++ build systems (Make, Autotools, CMake, Meson, MSVC).
• Experience in scripting (Shell, Python, PowerShell).
• Hands-on with source compilation of PostgreSQL dependencies such as openssl, libxml2, zstd, krb5, and more
• Understanding of binary compatibility, multi-platform builds, and cross-compilation.

What will give you an edge

• Experience in Java/Python packaging (wheels, jars, pip installers).
• Knowledge of PostgreSQL ecosystem (extensions, FDWs, contrib modules).
• Exposure to containerization (Docker, Podman).
• Background in open-source technologies or contributions to open-source projects.
• Familiarity with static code analysis / license compliance tools such as BlackDuck.
