  • Knowledge of stable, dependable build environments and rapid feedback cycles
  • Experience with maintaining and optimizing build systems for large-scale software repositories
  • Prior experience with Bazel or other monorepo-build software required
  • Experience with owning and managing builds for multi-language codebase with profiling and optimizing build times for C++ code
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in interacting with stakeholders across all phases of product design, development, and delivery
