Who we're looking for

We’re looking for a Software Development Lead to take control of our platform automation. You will lead the team that builds and operates our CI/CD systems and provides additional tools and support to developers to ensure their SDLs are as efficient as possible.

We believe in a high degree of automation in our CI/CD systems. We expect our build and test pipelines to be easy to configure, require minimal human effort to operate, and be fast, stable, and secure. Developers should ship their applications automatically, with high frequency and high confidence.

Our apps are built for many platforms: Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Linux, routers, and browser extensions. Dozens of microservices, as well as 3000+ physical servers, run our own architecture.

Responsibility:

Building the CI/CD platform and providing new functionalities in a timely fashion when the need arises.
Providing other teams with a clear specification of the functionalities and related SLAs.
Maintaining and operating the platform, and meeting the SLA requirements. The team is not responsible for monitoring individual pipelines.
Maintaining the relationship with third party providers, including ensuring we have appropriate plans to meet our customers’ needs.
Providing all teams with monthly reports on the detailed cost of operating their pipeline.
Providing documentation, training sessions, and direct support for all our services, including both off the shelf and internal solutions.
Ensuring our systems are secure through threat modeling, set expectations, and providing our customers with visibility.
