Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and own CI pipelines and test execution across pull request, merge, and nightly workflows for the DX-1 software stack.
  • Scale test execution using staged lanes, parallelism, real test isolation, and content-addressed caching.
  • Manage heterogeneous cloud and self-hosted CI fleets, including virtual machines, containers, bare-metal systems, and scarce hardware resources.
  • Provide fair, monitored, fail-fast shared access to simulation compute, emulator systems, accelerator boards, prototype platforms, and other hardware-in-the-loop resources.
  • Build deterministic performance regression baselines, metric aggregation, CI health dashboards, and product readiness dashboards.
  • Select and operate metrics storage for long-lived, high-cardinality time-series data and observable software.
  • Define hermetic, reproducible, least-privilege, fail-closed build and test standards while containing misconfiguration and untrusted-job blast radius.
  • Partner with infrastructure, compiler, runtime, simulator, and modelling teams and influence cross-functional standards without formal authority.

Requirements

  • Experience owning large-scale build/test infrastructure, CI/CD, developer productivity, or release engineering systems end to end.
  • Experience scaling large test suites with staged lanes, isolated parallelism, content-addressed caching, and cost-effective feedback.
  • Experience managing heterogeneous CI runner fleets across cloud and on-premises environments, including virtual machines, containers, and bare-metal hardware.
  • Experience providing reservations, remote access, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and portable artifacts for scarce or expensive resources.
  • Experience with performance regression baselines, deterministic testing, noise handling, metric aggregation, attribution, and bisection.
  • Experience building observability and metrics platforms, CI health dashboards, product readiness dashboards, and long-lived high-cardinality time-series stores.
  • Strong scripting and systems programming skills, including Python and a systems language, plus proficiency with containers, Linux, and cloud infrastructure such as AWS.
  • Knowledge of hermetic builds, least privilege, fail-closed defaults, and blast-radius control.
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional influencing skills.
  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
  • Preferred experience with GitHub Actions or comparable CI at scale, AWS-based CI runner fleets, hardware-in-the-loop or lab automation, custom silicon or FPGA bring-up, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, columnar warehouses, HPC, cluster batch scheduling, release engineering, or developer-productivity platforms.

Benefits

  • Meaningful stock options and ownership.
  • Employer-contributed retirement plans.
  • Annual Living-Local Bonus for employees residing within 20 minutes of the office.
  • The posting states that work eligibility is subject to U.S. export-control citizenship or permanent-residency restrictions for certain countries.
