Senior Engineer

About Re:Build

At Re:Build, our mission is to ensure the next generation of important products are made, at scale, in America. We are laying the foundation for a better future for our customers, employees, and communities by revitalizing America's manufacturing base and creating meaningful jobs across the country, including in historically deindustrialized regions. 

We operate an advanced, end-to-end manufacturing platform that partners with industrial companies and innovators to take products from first concept to full-scale production in critical verticals including aerospace and defense, electrification, medical, energy and environment, and robotics and automation. 

The way we operate is as important as the work we do. It's guided by The Re:Build Way, 16 principles that shape how we collaborate with each other, partner with our customers and vendors, and contribute to the communities where we operate. (link to  The Re:Build Way principles )

The Opportunity

If you've worked alongside hardware teams, you know the damage that results from a missed change request or critical context that was never relayed to the right person. Reflow exists to close that gap. We're building the first AI-powered platform purpose-built for hardware product development, one that listens across the tools teams already use, maintains a structured picture of every program, and proactively coordinates across disciplines when things inevitably change.

This is a ground-floor opportunity for a hands-on SecDevOps engineer to define the infrastructure, delivery pipelines, and operational foundation of a high-potential product with the support of a parent company leading innovation in engineering and manufacturing.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a SecDevOps engineer who cares deeply about building infrastructure that is reliable, secure, and scalable. The ideal candidate has designed and operated cloud-native production environments, has strong opinions on CI/CD pipeline design and infrastructure-as-code, and treats observability as a first-class concern. You should already be using AI coding tools like Cursor, Copilot, or Claude to accelerate your work, with excitement about supporting the platform that finally replaces the spreadsheets and status meetings that hardware teams have been stuck with for decades.

This senior engineer will work alongside our engineering team and head of product to build and maintain the infrastructure that powers our platform—including deployment pipelines, cloud environments, monitoring systems, and the operational tooling that keeps AI agents and real-time data flows running reliably at scale. The role is hands-on - you will be writing code and configuration daily while contributing to infrastructure architecture decisions and helping establish operational best practices as we scale.

What You’ll Do

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

• Designing, building, and maintaining cloud infrastructure on GCP, AWS and third-party providers using Terraform
• Building and optimizing CI/CD pipelines for rapid, reliable deployments across multiple services and environments
• Implementing comprehensive observability—monitoring, logging, alerting, and distributed tracing—to ensure platform health and fast incident response
• Establishing and enforcing security best practices including secrets management, network policies, vulnerability scanning, and compliance automation
• Supporting AI/ML infrastructure including model serving and the data pipelines that power our ambient AI agents
• Building developer experience tooling—local development environments, preview deployments, and self-service infrastructure provisioning
• Collaborating with backend and frontend engineers to ensure seamless integration between application code and infrastructure

Technical Requirements

Must Have:

• 5+ years of experience in SecDevOps, SRE, or platform engineering roles
• Demonstrated proficiency using AI coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, Claude, etc.) to accelerate development
• Expert-level experience with at least one major cloud provider (GCP preferred; AWS or Azure also accepted)
• Strong proficiency with Terraform
• Deep experience with Docker
• Proven track record designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar)
• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals, DNS, load balancing, and CDN configuration
• Proficiency in Python for automation and tooling
• Ability to balance rapid iteration with reliable, well-documented infrastructure

Highly Valuable:

• Experience supporting AI/ML workloads in production (model serving, GPU scheduling, streaming inference)
• Familiarity with database operations and optimization (PostgreSQL, Redis, or similar)
• Background in observability platforms (Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
• Understanding of authentication/authorization infrastructure (OIDC, OAuth2, JWT, SSO)
• Experience with cost optimization and FinOps practices in cloud environments
• Background in B2B SaaS platforms, particularly multi-tenant architectures
• Familiarity with SOC 2, FedRAMP, or ITAR compliance requirements relevant to hardware and defense industries

What We Offer

Real Impact: The opportunity to build purpose-built tooling for an entire industry that has never had it

Customer Access: Direct exposure to hundreds of real hardware projects annually through Re:Build’s engineering and manufacturing companies

Technical Growth: Hands-on work with cutting-edge AI technologies solving novel infrastructure challenges

Autonomy: Backed by Re:Build while operating with startup independence

Benefits: Full health/dental/vision, bonus program, generous 401K, paid time off, annual learning stipend

Equity & Growth: Participation in Re:Build’s LTIP equity program and opportunity for founder equity in potential spin-out

Compensation & Location

Location: Remote-first, with preference for candidates in Boston, Seattle, Los Angeles, or other cities with Re:Build offices

Compensation: The base salary range for this position is $165,000 – $200,000 per year. This range represents the Company’s good faith estimate of the base compensation for this role at the time of posting. Actual compensation will be determined based on several factors, including but not limited to relevant experience, skills, qualifications, internal equity, and geographic location. In addition to base salary, this role may be eligible for annual incentive compensation and/or long-term incentives, subject to Company plans. The Company offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, retirement, paid time off, and other benefits. Potential equity stake under independent spinout scenario.

Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
