Jobs at Buildkite

Own the full sales cycle across large enterprise accounts, from strategic prospecting through closing and expansion. Build senior stakeholder relationships, manage complex multi-decision-maker opportunities, develop account strategies, forecast revenue using MEDDPICC, and maintain CRM accuracy. Collaborate with Solutions Architects and cross-functional teams to deliver customer outcomes, represent the company at executive meetings and events, provide product feedback, and mentor peers while contributing to sales best practices.

Own and improve Buildkite’s AWS and multi-cluster Kubernetes platform. Design self-service infrastructure automation, regional architectures, traffic routing, disaster recovery, deployment safeguards, observability, and scalable reliability practices. Diagnose distributed-system issues, operate production systems through incidents and growth, and turn operational learnings into durable engineering improvements. The role also includes architecture reviews, documentation, code reviews, cross-team collaboration, and mentoring.

Own Buildkite’s cloud efficiency strategy by tracing AWS and Datadog costs to technical drivers, building granular cost models, implementing safe optimizations, and verifying realized savings. The role develops attribution, alerting, and cost-visibility tooling; partners with engineering, data, finance, and leadership; and balances savings against reliability, throughput, and customer experience.

Own Buildkite’s sales enablement strategy, systems, content, onboarding, training, certification, and measurement programs. Connect enablement initiatives to seller ramp, pipeline, performance, and revenue outcomes. Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Brand to launch products and GTM motions, improve tools and processes, coach Account Executives, and establish scalable enablement practices.

Support enterprise customers by resolving complex CI/CD, software, and infrastructure issues. Develop scalable support tools, maintain open-source Bash and Golang utilities, improve workflows, publish documentation, lead customer retrospectives, and collaborate with Product and Engineering. The role also involves mentoring peers and proactively preventing recurring support issues.

Own and evolve Buildkite’s open-source CI agent and infrastructure. Ship features quickly, manage production reliability, design reversible rollouts, investigate incidents, support engineers, contribute to the roadmap, and communicate clearly. The role requires strong production ownership and proficiency in Go or Ruby, with opportunities to work across Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, PostgreSQL, React, and GraphQL.

Lead developer experience for an engineering organization of approximately 80 engineers. Own improvements across CI, build tooling, codebase health, deployment paths, and AI-assisted development. Define and measure developer productivity, ship hands-on changes across languages and services, accelerate engineering workflows, evaluate and deploy agentic coding tools, and build cross-team buy-in without direct management responsibility.
