• Build automated testing frameworks for validating simulation accuracy and performance.
• Create development environments that mirror production complexity while maintaining rapid iteration speeds.
• Develop intelligent build systems that optimize compilation and testing for our Rust-heavy codebase.
• Implement comprehensive code quality and security scanning across all repositories.
• Build deployment automation that enables safe, frequent releases to production environments.
• Create developer tools and CLI utilities that streamline common engineering workflows.
• Design metrics and dashboards that provide visibility into engineering productivity and system health.
• Establish best practices for code review, testing, and deployment processes.
• Build integration testing environments for validating cross-team feature development.
• Automate dependency management and security patching across our technology stack.
• Enable rapid experimentation through feature flags and progressive deployment strategies.

Qualifications

• Engineering degree in a related field (e.g. computer science, software engineering) or equivalent working experience.
• Strong experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines at scale.
• Proficiency in multiple programming languages with emphasis on Rust, Python, and shell scripting.
• Deep understanding of containerization and orchestration technologies.
• Experience with GitOps principles and infrastructure automation.
• Strong knowledge of testing strategies including unit, integration, and performance testing.
• Expertise in build optimization and dependency management for compiled languages.
• Experience with observability tools and practices for development workflows.
• Proficiency in both Linux and Windows development environments.
• Bonus: Experience with GPU-accelerated application testing and deployment.
• Bonus: Background in developer experience optimization for large engineering organizations.
• Bonus: Knowledge of security scanning and compliance automation.
• Bonus: Experience with monorepo management and building systems like Bazel.
