[Hiring] Staff Platform Engineer - CI/CD & Build Systems @Hashgraph

Role Description

We are hiring a Staff Software Engineer — CI/CD & Release Engineering to architect and scale the systems that power software delivery across Hashgraph’s internal and open-source platforms. This role exists because our engineering organization is operating increasingly complex distributed systems across multiple products, environments, and release streams. We need a senior technical builder who can design reliable, scalable, and developer-friendly release infrastructure that enables engineering teams to ship quickly, safely, and repeatedly at production scale. You will help establish the foundation for how software is built, tested, released, deployed, and observed across the company — improving engineering velocity while strengthening reliability and operational confidence.

Qualifications

• Strong systems thinking with the ability to design scalable engineering infrastructure from first principles
• Deep ownership mentality with a bias toward automation, reliability, and operational excellence
• Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills across engineering and business stakeholders
• Ability to balance strategic architectural thinking with hands-on execution
• Proven ability to operate effectively in fast-moving, high-autonomy engineering environments

Requirements

• 7+ years building and operating production-grade software engineering infrastructure or CI/CD platforms
• Deep experience designing and operating CI/CD systems using tools such as GitHub Actions and/or GitLab CI
• Strong experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and cloud-native infrastructure patterns
• Strong programming and automation experience in one or more of: Kotlin, Java, Go, Python, or Bash
• Experience building scalable build, test, release, and deployment automation systems
• Experience with modern build systems and dependency management tools such as Gradle, Maven, or NPM
• Experience operating engineering infrastructure within AWS and/or Google Cloud Platform environments
• Experience designing observability and monitoring solutions using tools such as Grafana and related telemetry systems
• Strong understanding of release management strategy, deployment safety, and operational reliability practices
• Experience writing high-quality technical documentation, engineering standards, and operational processes

Benefits

• CI/CD systems are highly reliable, scalable, and capable of supporting rapid multi-product releases with minimal operational overhead
• Engineering teams ship software faster with improved deployment confidence and reduced release friction
• Build and release infrastructure is standardized, observable, and repeatable across products and environments
• Deployment automation significantly reduces manual operational effort and release risk
• Release engineering becomes a strategic enabler for engineering throughput, platform reliability, and product delivery velocity

Nice to have

• Experience supporting large-scale open-source software development workflows
• Experience with distributed systems, blockchain, or decentralized infrastructure technologies
• Experience optimizing build performance, release throughput, or engineering productivity at scale
• Expertise in Golang and advanced shell automation
