About the role

Full-time, exempt Release/DevOps/Platform Engineering role based in Oakland, CA with hybrid schedule. Responsible for building and hardening release pipelines and APIs to support a agent-ready release platform, automations, and scalable CI/CD for large codebases.

Responsibilities

  • Dive deep into Gradle/Bazel configurations and our Java build graph to improve cache hit rates, parallelism, and resource utilization for our monorepo.
  • Systematically identify and eliminate flaky tests and unstable infrastructure in our CI pipelines to ensure green builds provide highly trustworthy signals.
  • Build automations that generate FedRAMP and other audit artifacts from our pipelines, reducing manual toil while improving our compliance posture.
  • Shift logs and build outputs toward structured, traceable formats and implement clear, idempotent APIs to lay the groundwork for safe orchestration by future automation.
  • Use tools like Terraform and Helm to define and evolve the infrastructure that powers our builds and deployments, managing configuration drift, health, and scaling across target environments.
  • Drive complex release engineering projects end-to-end—including scoping, technical design, execution, rollout, and post-launch improvements—while providing technical mentorship to peers.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on Release, DevOps, or Platform Engineering in cloud-based systems.
  • Strong proficiency in Java or a similar statically-typed language, and comfort scripting in Python and/or Bash.
  • Deep, hands-on experience with build tools such as Gradle, Bazel, or Maven at scale within large codebases.
  • Experience managing cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) using Terraform or similar IaC tools, alongside experience operating modern CI/CD platforms.
  • Strong fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, system design, and distributed systems, with a track record of automating away operational toil.
  • Authorized to work in the United States; Everlaw is not sponsoring U.S. employment visas for this role.
