Who we are:

Glydways is reimagining what public transit can be. We believe that mobility is the gateway to opportunity—connecting people to housing, education, employment, commerce, and care. By making transportation more accessible, affordable, and sustainable, we empower communities to thrive and unlock economic and social prosperity.

Our mission is to revolutionize transit with a solution that delivers high capacity, exceptional user experiences, unmatched affordability, and minimal environmental impact.

The Glydways system is a groundbreaking network of carbon-neutral, interconnected transit pathways powered by standardized autonomous vehicles on dedicated roadways. Operating 24/7 with on-demand access, it offers personalized and efficient mobility—without the burden of heavy upfront infrastructure costs or ongoing taxpayer subsidies.

With Glydways, we’re building more than a transportation system; we’re creating a future where everyone, everywhere, has the freedom to move.

Meet the team:

The Developer Platform team as a part of Software Platform is responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure that enables all developers to track, build, deploy and operate our software. From the build system everyone uses, to the tools used to submit and deploy changes, to the cloud infrastructure they use to operate it - we support the entire development experience. The Developer Platform team forges the tools that empower the entire software engineering organization while working with engineers from almost every team.

• Maintain and enhance developer workflows, including build, lint, code coverage, and testing support for C++, Python, and Go languages.
• Collaborate closely with software engineering teams to identify and implement improvements in the continuous integration (CI) system, utilizing AWS and Buildkite.
• Develop, deploy, and support automation tools to streamline common developer workflows, such as change submission, integration testing, and dependency management.
• Design and implement basic monitoring services to track the performance and stability of internal processes and systems.
• Contribute to the eventual migration of the build system to Bazel, working with team members to ensure a smooth transition.

Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

• Strong knowledge of build systems and other tools in the software development cycle, like: git, linting, GitHub, code review, testing frameworks and deployment frameworks.
• Strong knowledge of CI/CD best practices and principles, with bonus points for direct experience with Buildkite.
• Experience developing tools and services in Python or Go.
• Experience with Linux operating systems in both day to day development and operational environments.
• Knowledge of AWS or other similar cloud platforms.
• Knowledge of on-call support processes, incident management and monitoring tooling.
