- Lead the development of a unified Developer Productivity dashboard that integrates signals from across the company to surface industry-standard KPIs such as DORA and DX Core 4
- Improve system reliability, performance, scalability, and observability across distributed systems by introducing new tools and/or building new features
- Monitor system performance and health, proactively identifying and resolving issues before they impact users
- Lead system architecture decisions and technical roadmaps
What We Are Looking For:
- Bachelor Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent knowledge and work experience

- Strong background in modern programming languages (Python, Go, C++ are the ones we use)
- Experience with Unix-like environments, software, and toolchains.
- Knowledge of CI/CD tools (e.g. GitLab CI, Jenkins), cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, GCP) & infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation)
- Expertise in software development lifecycle including the ability to understand ambiguous goals and convert them into software requirements
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
Bonus Points (not required, but a plus):
- Experience in the AV industry or robotics
- Deep expertise with monorepo software development tools and services (e.g. Bazel)
- Previously been on on-call roster to support P1 & P0 systems
- Experience with AI/LLM integration, specifically building/extending Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to enhance developer productivity and system automation
