Role Overview

We're looking for someone who can take the lead on building and maintaining release and deployment systems for an advanced software platform connected to physical devices. This person should be comfortable navigating complex cloud setups, managing services running in containers, and contributing to a codebase written in modern systems languages.

What You'll Tackle

  • Set up and manage automated delivery workflows across a major cloud platform, using its full feature set

  • Handle container-based environments that support software controlling hardware

  • Work through deployment and compilation issues in a modular, service-based system written mostly in Python and C++

  • Partner with developers to get up to speed on a sophisticated codebase powering a next-generation physical product

  • Make progress independently using thorough documentation and working examples-without needing close oversight

Must-Haves

  • 5+ years working in roles focused on infrastructure, tooling, or systems

  • Hands-on experience managing containers, cloud resources, and release automation (experience with a typed scripting language is key)

  • Solid programming fundamentals: understanding data structures and algorithms, and fluency in at least one mainstream language such as Python or C++

  • US-based and eligible for federal work (background check required)

Bonus Skills

  • Background working with physical hardware, robotics, or edge-connected devices

  • Familiarity with declarative environment config tools (e.g., tools that define infra as code)

  • Exposure to low-level container runtimes

  • Knowledge of modular application design and orchestrated service patterns

  • Worked within iterative project management frameworks (or close variants)

  • Experience with logging and alerting systems tied to cloud infrastructure

  • Enjoys refining development processes and tooling

Other Notes

  • We're open to individuals with 5 to 20+ years in the software world

  • This is a US-only opportunity, and all candidates must pass a background screen before joining

  • Two technical interviews will be required: one internal, one with the client
