The day-to-day

• Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines, release infrastructure, and developer tooling end-to-end; own the quality and reliability of systems you build 
• 
  
• Develop and evolve embedded Linux build workflows, including Yocto-based image pipelines and related tooling; drive improvements in reproducibility and build performance 
• 
  
• Collaborate closely with robotics, embedded, and systems engineers on build systems, testing infrastructure, and release workflows for drone and defense-grade software 
• 
  
• Drive reliability, observability, reproducibility, and security across build and deployment systems; identify and resolve infrastructure bottlenecks 
• 
  
• Define and enforce best practices for automated testing, artifact management, branching strategies, and deployment workflows 
• 
  
• Step into complex issues across infrastructure, build systems, pipelines, and codebases; unblock the team and mentor colleagues to resolve similar issues independently 
• 
  
• Contribute to and shape the broader engineering platform strategy spanning CI/CD, developer infrastructure, operating systems, and engineering security practices 
• 
  
• Mentor junior engineers and external stakeholders on DevOps best practices, build systems, and platform architecture

You should apply if you

Must-haves 

• Proven track record as a DevOps, build-and-release, or platform engineer—typically 5+ years—after a degree in computer science or comparable qualification 
• 
  
• Proficiency in at least one systems programming language (e.g., C/C++ or Rust) and the ability to read and reason about native-code application codebases with confidence 
• 
  
• Deep, practical understanding of modern GNU/Linux systems (preferably Ubuntu/Debian-based) and how native applications are built, packaged, tested, and shipped 
• 
  
• Professional experience implementing and maintaining CI/CD tooling such as GitLab CI or GitHub Actions; you can design and build pipelines from scratch 
• 
  
• Strong experience with native-code build systems and tooling (e.g., CMake and/or Bazel; build caching such as sccache or equivalent) 
• 
  
• Working understanding of robotics middleware/runtime concepts (e.g., ROS 2, DDS, serialization formats) sufficient to reason about what runs on top of the CI/CD and release platform 
• 
  
• Familiarity with Yocto concepts (layers, recipes, image assembly) as they relate to CI/CD pipelines and release engineering 
• 
  
• Python and Shell as daily drivers: you write production-grade automation, not quick scripts 
• 
  
• Proven ability to analyze complex infrastructure and code issues independently and communicate findings clearly 
• 
  
• Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and raise the technical bar in teams you join
