• Develop and enhance components in build systems, including dependency management, caching, compilation, and CI/CD integration.
• Optimize performance, reliability, and ergonomics of developer tooling across large monorepos.
• Collaborate with infrastructure, DevOps, security, and engineering productivity teams to define system architecture and integration points.
• Contribute to code reviews, technical documentation, and adoption of engineering best practices.
• Identify pain points in development workflows and deliver automated or scalable solutions.
• Participate in root cause analysis of system failures or inefficiencies, and lead long-term fixes.

Minimum Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in Golang or Python, with a focus on infrastructure software, system tooling, or backend libraries (not just application backends).

• Demonstrated experience with performance profiling, system-level debugging, and concurrent programming in Go.
• Proven track record of contributing to internal platforms, build pipelines, or open-source tooling.
• Familiarity with continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) workflows and related automation.
