Job Description

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to lead the way in DevOps automation and internal web tool development. You'll play a key role in shaping our CI/CD pipelines, improving developer velocity, and building internal platforms that help our teams plan and operate more effectively.

This role blends hands-on engineering with technical leadership - guiding a small, distributed team (3–4 developers including overseas contractors) while staying close to the code.

What You'll Do

  • Lead development and optimization of CI/CD pipelines using Buildkite and Harness to improve build speed, reliability, and security.
  • Automate deployment workflows and integrate security scanning and post-deployment monitoring.
  • Drive developer productivity through automation and process improvements.
  • Architect and build an internal resource management tool for capacity planning, capitalization tracking, and program visibility.
  • Deliver features like org chart visualization, resource dashboards, and integrations with JIRA, Confluence, and Excel-based data sources.
  • Mentor developers, review code, and ensure best practices across DevOps and web projects.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to align technical solutions with business and operational goals.

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of experience in software engineering, with strengths in DevOps and web development.
  • Expertise with CI/CD platforms (Buildkite, Harness) and AWS.
  • Strong skills in automation scripting (Python, Bash, or similar).
  • Experience building modern web apps using JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks.
  • Background in monitoring, observability, and security integration.
  • Proven experience leading small teams or contractors in a technical capacity.
  • Clear, proactive communication and a collaborative mindset.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar IaC tools.
  • Familiarity with resource or portfolio management systems.
  • Exposure to AI-assisted development workflows (e.g., Cursor AI).
