Senior/Staff Software Engineer, DevOps

Accountabilities:

• • Design, implement, and operate production-quality infrastructure and internal platforms with significant autonomy and end-to-end ownership.
  • Build and expand automated testing infrastructure for software deployed across diverse and remotely accessible edge hardware.
  • Develop systems that make automated tests reproducible, reliable, observable, and easy to diagnose when failures occur.
  • Enable product engineering and QA teams to contribute automated tests while maintaining a robust platform owned and evolved by the DevOps function.
  • Improve CI/CD pipelines, build and release systems, deployment automation, developer tooling, and overall platform reliability.
  • Identify high-leverage engineering opportunities, evaluate technical tradeoffs, define solutions, and lead major initiatives from early ambiguity through successful production operation.
  • Write production software and automation that improves engineering velocity, system reliability, and operational efficiency.
  • Partner closely with engineering teams to understand infrastructure needs and continuously improve developer productivity and software quality.
  • Contribute to a culture of strong engineering practices, operational ownership, continuous learning, and accountability.
  • Help evolve infrastructure capabilities supporting software that operates in complex, distributed, and edge environments.

  Requirements

  • Demonstrated Senior- or Staff-level impact designing, building, and owning software systems, with emphasis on scope, technical ownership, and leadership rather than a specific number of years.
  • Strong software development skills in at least one production programming language, with the ability to work effectively across different languages and technology stacks.
  • Experience with Python and Bash is valuable; familiarity with Go and TypeScript is particularly relevant.
  • Professional experience in one or more infrastructure-focused disciplines, including Site Reliability Engineering, Production Engineering, CI/CD, Build & Release, Developer Infrastructure, Platform Engineering, or Test Infrastructure.
  • Strong hands-on knowledge of Linux, containers, networking, software delivery pipelines, and production troubleshooting.
  • Practical experience designing, implementing, or supporting automated testing at the unit, integration, end-to-end, or system level.
  • Proven ability to navigate ambiguous technical problems, make sound engineering tradeoffs, and deliver meaningful outcomes with limited oversight.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across engineering and QA teams.
  • A high degree of ownership, initiative, accountability, and comfort operating in a fast-moving environment.
  • Experience with hardware-in-the-loop testing, remote device fleet orchestration, edge or embedded systems, performance testing, chaos engineering, platform observability, or large-scale distributed systems is a strong advantage.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance.

  Benefits

  • $240,000–$280,000 annual base salary, with final compensation based on experience, technical expertise, demonstrated impact, geographic location, and overall fit.
  • Eligibility for equity participation.
  • Comprehensive employee benefits package.
  • Fully remote work environment within the United States.
  • High degree of autonomy and ownership over technically significant initiatives.
  • Opportunity to work on challenging infrastructure problems involving edge computing, automated testing, distributed systems, and developer platforms.
  • Small, collaborative engineering environment built around trust, accountability, and open communication.
  • Opportunity to influence technical direction and build systems that directly support mission-critical operations.
  • Culture that encourages initiative, rapid learning, continuous improvement, and solving difficult engineering problems.
