  • 3+ years of Engineering Management Experience
  • Technical Strategy: Ability to define a roadmap for build infrastructure, focusing on pipelines for releasing complex multi-faceted software systems. Bonus points for experience in embedded software systems. Prioritization of developer velocity, system reliability, and hermeticity. 
  • Domain Literacy: Strong technical background in Build/Release Engineering, including a deep understanding of the trade-offs between different build systems (Bazel vs. others) and workflow engines (Temporal). 
  • Operational Oversight: Experience with AWS environments and containerized software delivery lifecycles. 
  • Resource Management: Familiarity with the complexities of Debian-based software distribution and the automation required to maintain a secure supply chain. 
  • Team Leadership: Proven track record of hiring and developing high-performing engineers in the space. 
  • Preferred Skills: Familiarity with the hardware-software interface and the unique challenges of supporting embedded Linux and complex embedded software releases.
