Staff Software Engineer - Developer Productivity

About The Role

As a Staff Software Engineer with our newly-chartered Developer Productivity team, you will be responsible for leading projects that amplify the engineering team in the following areas:

• Pace of iteration.
• Reliability of deployments.
• Completeness of testing.

• Investigate and understand common challenges across engineering teams.
• Build and introduce simple tools that make best practices convenient to execute.
• Be a champion of Invisible’s culture within engineering.

• 8+ years of software engineering work experience.
• Experience working with fully remote teams.
• Demonstrated experience partnering with multiple teams on large-scope projects.
• Demonstrated experience presenting on technical topics to non-technical stakeholders.
• Demonstrated experience authoring and maintaining excellent org-wide documentation.

  • Cloud Deployment using Kubernetes (with observability)
  • Prior management experience is a plus
