TL;DR · Senior Release Infrastructure Architect

As a Senior Release Infrastructure Architect, you will join a powerful team to manage the architecture of a critical full-stack release management platform. You will define the technical vision for modern infrastructure, building multi-tenant, multi-environment systems across various hardware platforms. Your daily responsibilities include crafting hierarchical domain models, state machines, and ingestion pipelines to manage complex lifecycles and promotion flows. You will establish standards for API builds, RBAC, and observability while leading frontend architecture for sophisticated authoring experiences. The role requires expertise in Python, PostgreSQL, React, Angular, and TypeScript. You will solve complex problems regarding data fidelity, CI/CD orchestration, and hardware/firmware release flows. You must ensure strict separation between authoring and production environments while managing database migrations and incident-response models for these large-scale platform projects.

What you'll do

  • Manage the architecture of a full-stack release management platform for multi-tenant and multi-environment systems.
  • Craft hierarchical domain models and state machines to manage complex lifecycles and multi-axis promotion flows.
  • Architect robust ingestion and reconciliation pipelines to ensure data fidelity and compliance across various representations.
  • Define and integrate validation, promotion, and gating models with automated sanity stages and customer-release pipelines.
  • Establish standards for API builds, authentication, RBAC, audit logging, and observability across the platform.
  • Lead frontend architecture for sophisticated authoring and review experiences involving complex tabular editing and bulk operations.
  • Drive platform onboarding workflows by defining naming schemes, validation rules, and notification topologies for new hardware.
  • Define and manage deployment, rollout, and incident-response models, including database migration strategies and on-call runbooks.

What we're looking for

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Over 12 years of hands-on software engineering experience.
  • Experience in a senior technical leadership role.
  • Proven experience leading large-scale, multi-year, full-stack platform projects from inception to production.
  • Expertise in Python, PostgreSQL, and complex relational data modeling.
  • Strong frontend architecture skills with React, Angular, and TypeScript.
  • Experience in CI/CD orchestration, event-triggered integrations, and background-job systems.
  • Experience architecting large-scale release engineering or configuration management platforms (preferred).
