CI Engineer

• Own and proactively improve our GitHub Actions-based CI pipelines — not just fixing what breaks, but anticipating bottlenecks and reliability issues before they impact the team

• Triage and resolve flaky tests across a large, multi-layered test suite spanning unit, integration, and end-to-end tests — identifying systemic patterns, not just one-off fixes

• Support ongoing releases and take ownership of improving the release process over time

• Act as a first responder to emergent CI infrastructure issues, diagnosing and resolving them quickly and independently

• Support product engineers who are writing tests using Cypress, Jest, and our home-grown Clojure-based test frameworks

• Manage test infrastructure across a wide matrix of databases — we test against nearly all major transactional and analytical cloud databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, and more

• Document and communicate clearly and asynchronously across a globally distributed team — and keep the broader engineering team informed about the state of CI health without being asked, as well as communicating and demonstrating best practices.

• Demonstrated experience working with CI/CD systems in a professional engineering environment — you don't need to be a 10-year veteran, but you need to have done this work, done it well, and owned it

• A proactive, ownership-driven mindset — you notice things that are heading in the wrong direction and fix them without waiting to be asked

• The independence to manage your own priorities and operate effectively without close supervision across a globally distributed team

• Solid understanding of GitHub Actions or comparable CI platforms

• Experience with JavaScript testing tools, particularly Cypress and/or Jest

• Comfort with containerization (Docker) — our database test matrix depends on it

• Solid shell scripting skills (Bash)

• Experience diagnosing and fixing flaky tests in large test suites

• Strong async written communication skills — this is a remote-first, globally distributed team

• Curiosity and a systematic approach to debugging unfamiliar systems

• Familiarity with Clojure and TypeScript

• Experience testing against or operating cloud data warehouses or analytical databases

• Experience building and supporting software release pipelines

• You'll have real ownership over systems that directly affect the productivity of a 70-person engineering team

• You'll work on infrastructure that supports widely used open source software

• Fully remote, any timezone — we're serious about async-first culture

• You'll have the autonomy to identify and drive improvements rather than just work a ticket queue
