Build Engineer
We’re looking for a Build Engineer who enjoys working close to the metal—someone who is comfortable with Linux, containers, scripting, and the day-to-day operational heartbeat of a build environment. You’ll own and improve the systems that our customers rely on every day, from Docker-based build workflows to automation, and you’ll help triage and resolve issues as they arise.
This role is hands-on and operational, but also offers meaningful opportunities to drive improvements, reduce friction, and evolve our build tooling as the company scales.Anticipated salary is $130,000-150,000 depending on experience.
Minimum Requirements
- 3+ years in build engineering, DevOps, infrastructure engineering, or similar roles
- Authorized to work in the US. US citizenship required pursuant to applicable federal contracts and security-clearance requirements.
- Strong Linux experience and command-line fluency
- Solid Python and Bash scripting abilities
- Proficiency with Docker, container tooling, and debugging container build issues
- Familiarity with troubleshooting distributed environments, remote systems, and scaling behaviors
- Basic Kubernetes understanding (enough to triage image/deployment issues)
- Experience with Git-based workflows (Bitbucket, GitHub, or GitLab)
- Experience maintaining or customizing Jenkins pipelines
- Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate with engineering teams
- Process-oriented mindset and comfort with routine operational responsibilities
- Demonstrated ability to take ownership and steadily improve systems over time
Nice to Have
- Exposure to AWS or Azure
- Familiarity with container scanning tools, observability tools, or build optimization
- Experience in early-stage startups or dynamic engineering environments
Responsibilities
- Complete daily builds and publish an updated catalog of all our curated images
- Maintain, monitor, and improve our build environment, including Docker builds, image tools, and supporting scripts, automation
- Triage and debug build failures, container-related issues, and image problems across engineering teams
- Write and maintain automation scripts and internal tooling in Bash and Python
- Collaborate with developers to diagnose issues, improve build workflows, and ensure smooth day-to-day operations
- Contribute to scaling our build infrastructure to meet growing engineering needs
- Document processes and maintain consistency in routine operational tasks
- Identify opportunities to automate repetitive work and improve reliability
