Description

  • Define and own the long-term technical roadmap for the C++ build platform.
  • Architect scalable build infrastructure, including remote caching, remote execution, and cross-compilation for x86, ARM, and Jetson targets.
  • Set engineering standards for hermetic, reproducible builds and artifact provenance.
  • Own high-performance build environments and the end-to-end artifact lifecycle from build output through packaging, versioning, and delivery.
  • Architect and optimize CI/CD pipelines at scale and establish build health metrics and SLOs.
  • Manage the C++ dependency ecosystem to balance flexibility, reproducibility, and maintainability.
  • Partner with engineering leadership to shape the developer productivity roadmap and advocate for platform investment.
  • Drive cross-team initiatives to consolidate build patterns, reduce toil, and solve systemic productivity issues.

Requirements

  • Ability to reason about toolchains, linkers, compilers, and build behavior at a systems level.
  • Proven experience architecting and operating build infrastructure at scale, including CI/CD, caching systems, and cross-compilation environments.
  • Strong command of Linux, including internals, networking, file systems, permissions, and resource management.
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation with Python and Bash.
  • Experience driving technical strategy through design docs, RFCs, or technical proposals that influenced engineering-wide decisions.

  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex infrastructure concepts to diverse audiences and leadership.
  • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, DNS, and HTTP.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
