Lead the shared developer platform and release infrastructure powering the research cloud organization.
Originally posted November 12, 2026 by the employer.
About the role
This role leads the team managing the shared developer environment used across the research cloud organization to build, test, and deliver software. Responsibilities span source control, CI/CD and build systems, runner and execution infrastructure, artifact management, and release-control systems.
What you'll do
- Lead and manage a team of systems engineers building and operating the shared developer platform, mentoring experienced and principal engineers.
- Own the path from code change to production, including test-first development, GitOps or declarative delivery, progressive rollout, blast-radius controls, and build quality gates.
- Drive measurable improvements across build and integration workflow stability, developer cycle time, change-failure rate, and defect prevention.
- Align engineering, infrastructure, and security teams on shared tooling, testing protocols, delivery standards, and software delivery pipeline security.
- Evaluate AI-assisted development tools such as automatic test creation, autonomous code review, and quality gates, establishing guidelines for adoption.
- Represent developer platform priorities and quality outcomes to senior leadership.
What you'll need
- 12+ overall years of industry experience in systems, infrastructure, or developer platform engineering.
- 5+ years of experience leading and managing engineering teams, including senior and staff engineers.
- BS or MS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Deep understanding of safe production software delivery, including automated verification, GitOps, continuous delivery, progressive rollout, rollback, and release controls.
- Demonstrated experience building developer platforms, CI/CD pipelines, build systems, or quality infrastructure at scale.
- Track record of driving cross-functional alignment on shared tooling and delivery standards across teams outside your direct reporting line.
- Proven results in improving build and pipeline reliability, developer efficiency, and reducing change-failure rates.

How we counted: 1040 open Infrastructure/Platform Software (Infrastructure Platform) roles from 92 employers tracked in the SemiconductorJobs index, counted 14 Nov 2026. Specialty figures count only roles carrying this exact specialty label, so an employer's related work in neighbouring specialties is not included there, and is counted in the wider Software, Firmware & Systems family row. Days are counted from when our index first saw each posting, not from the employer's original posting date.
