Job Description

The Release Engineer team is responsible for building and maintaining the systems that power software delivery—from CI/CD pipelines and artifact management to release automation and fleet telemetry. We ensure software across bootloaders, firmware, operating systems, and cloud services is built reproducibly, validated rigorously, and released safely at scale. As a Release Engineer, you’ll design, build, and operate release infrastructure that enables reliable, secure, and traceable software delivery across complex multi-component systems. You’ll partner closely with embedded, cloud, and QA teams to ensure that every build—from development to OTA deployment—is fast, verifiable, and production-ready.

Job Responsibility

  • Design and operate CI/CD pipelines for multi-component builds (bootloader, firmware, OS images, backend, companion apps) using hermetic toolchains
  • Define versioning and branching strategies
  • automate promotions, changelogs, and artifact retention
  • Integrate unit, integration, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test results
  • quarantine flaky tests, auto-bisect failures, and block unsafe promotions
  • Build A/B OTA update flows with verity and health checks
  • run staged rollouts and canaries
  • implement safe rollback and roll-forward strategies
  • Implement code signing for binaries and firmware, generate SBOMs, run vulnerability scanning, and attach build attestations and provenance
  • Manage dashboards and alerts for build health, promotion latency, failure rates, and fleet update telemetry

Requirements

  • Experience building and operating build and release systems for consumer devices, robotics, mobile, or embedded products
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation languages such as Python or Bash
  • Strong Linux user-space fundamentals
  • Experience with GitHub Actions or Buildkite, artifact registries, and reproducible toolchains
  • Experience managing vendor BSPs and toolchains
  • Delivered secure OTA or image updates with staged rollouts at scale
  • Familiar with key management and supply-chain hardening
  • Track record of metrics-driven improvement and continuous optimization

What we offer

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family, with employer contributions to Health Savings Accounts
  • Pre-tax accounts for Health FSA, Dependent Care FSA, and commuter expenses (parking and transit)
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer match
  • Paid parental leave (up to 24 weeks for birth parents and 20 weeks for non-birthing parents), plus paid medical and caregiver leave (up to 8 weeks)
  • Paid time off: flexible PTO for exempt employees and up to 15 days annually for non-exempt employees
  • 13+ paid company holidays, and multiple paid coordinated company office closures throughout the year for focus and recharge, plus paid sick or safe time (1 hour per 30 hours worked, or more, as required by applicable state or local law)
  • Mental health and wellness support
  • Employer-paid basic life and disability coverage
  • Annual learning and development stipend to fuel your professional growth
  • Daily meals in our offices, and meal delivery credits as eligible
  • Relocation support for eligible employees
  • Additional taxable fringe benefits, such as charitable donation matching and wellness stipends, may also be provided
  • Offers Equity
