Senior Software Engineer Experience FedRAMP or DoD

Role Description

As a member of the Dashboard Build team, you will provide logistical support for our cloud development organization, focusing on functionality, simplicity, scalability, reliability, and availability of our build systems. You're driven by a strong desire to improve developer happiness, always keeping an empathetic ear out for developers’ day-to-day experience with tools and workflows, while finding ways to improve these. You'll make incremental changes to quickly get a developer unstuck, as well as propose and implement longer term changes that reduce technical debt, accelerate developer productivity, and anticipate future needs. We are stewards of the outer loop, striving to enable our developers to ship quality features, with confidence.

The Dashboard Build team supports our FedRAMP Moderate environment, and we are building on that foundation for U.S. federal and defense customers with FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5 (IL5) requirements. That means designing systems that are scalable, reliable, auditable, and simple to operate under a high bar for security and compliance. We’re looking for a technical lead who thrives in high impact, high visibility projects, with an excitement to tackle complex problems and collaborate across teams.

This role supports U.S. federal cloud environments governed by federal customer and contract requirements. To comply with requirements applicable to this role, the successful candidate must be a U.S. Citizen and must perform work for this role from within the United States.

• Work closely with product engineering teams to monitor and maintain build health, velocity, and accuracy.
• Collaborate with the SRE team to ensure scalability and availability of build systems.
• Prevent, predict, and respond to issues, coordinating the triage and remediation efforts across the product teams.

• 5+ years of relevant experience in development, build, and release engineering.
• Experience with the development of modular build systems and tools for a scalable continuous infrastructure that provides a streamlined developer experience.
• Experience with CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, GitLab, TeamCity, GitHub, Buildkite, CircleCI, and/or RWX.
• Experience with distributed version control systems such as Git, GitLab, and/or GitHub.
• Experience with the use of containers in a build environment, and tools such as AWS, Artifactory, Docker, and/or Kubernetes.
• Experience with Linux and open-source software.
