Job description

In the world of software engineering, the release pipeline is like the backbone of a high-performance machine—always running, always driving progress, but often out of sight. Much like the unsung heroes of innovation, the release process needs to be both robust and invisible in its perfection. It’s the calm force that powers rapid delivery without disrupting the flow, ensuring every line of code can be shipped confidently, without hesitation. The role of a Release Engineer is not just about managing releases—it’s about mastering the craft of flawless, high-frequency deployments that enable teams to move faster and innovate without limits.

At Mercury, we’re committed to making our software delivery process as seamless and powerful as the products we build. We believe that exceptional engineering is built on a foundation of smooth and efficient deployments, and we’re looking for someone who’s passionate about crafting that experience for our teams and our users.

What You’ll Do:

• Own the end-to-end release process for our large, mono-repo codebase, ensuring deployments happen without a hitch, every single time.
• Implement flexible release and rollback strategies that can accommodate the needs of various teams and projects, from frontend to backend, ensuring seamless coordination and minimal disruption.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to design and refine release processes that allow for rapid, frequent releases, making sure that each team can ship confidently and frequently.
• Work with a variety of build tools like Buck2, Vite, and Nix to optimize build performance and ensure fast, reliable pipelines.
• Lead the development of CI/CD processes that support a high-frequency release cadence, ensuring smooth integrations and continuous delivery across the entire organization.
• Use your strong communication skills to coordinate across teams, ensuring smooth, collaborative releases that delight everyone involved.

What You Bring:

• Experience with deploying and managing large mono-repo codebases.
• Proven success in navigating the complexities of a large engineering organization (500+ engineers) while keeping things running smoothly.
• Familiarity modern build systems (like Buck2, Bazel, or others), and bonus points if you’ve worked with Nix.
• Experience with modern CI/CD systems (such as GitHub Actions, BuildKite, CircleCI) that allow for continuous, frequent releases across the entire company.
• Strong communication skills that help align teams across the company, ensuring smooth and collaborative release cycles.
• Experience with or an eagerness to learn Haskell, as our core monolith is built on it.

Why You’ll Love It Here:

• Work with a team that’s passionate about making releases smooth and scalable.
• Own a key part of the engineering pipeline and see your work’s impact on our product’s evolution.
• Collaborate with brilliant engineers, solving complex challenges while keeping things simple.
• Thrive in an environment where the pace is fast, the problems are challenging, and the outcomes are magical.
